Classification: EL17-040 Reference: Date: NTB17-120 November 27, 2017 2017 - 2018 ARMADA; INTELLIGENT KEY BATTERY DISCHARGED APPLIED VEHICLES: 2017 - 2018 Armada (Y62) SERVICE INFORMATION If the Intelligent Key is stored within 15 feet of the vehicle, the BCM may continue to “ping” the Intelligent Key keeping it awake. Keeping the Intelligent Key awake may result in discharging its battery in a much shorter period of time than normal (premature battery discharge). Example: The Intelligent Key should not be stored in a lock box or other storage container attached to the outside of the vehicle. To prevent premature Intelligent Key battery discharge, store the Intelligent Key more than 15 feet from the vehicle. If unable to store the Intelligent Key more than 15 feet from the vehicle (for example, when a vehicle is on display in the showroom); the following steps will prevent the BCM from continuing to “ping” the Intelligent Key: Disable the welcome light function using the on-board methods outlined in this bulletin, or Disable the welcome light function using the CONSULT-III plus methods outlined in this bulletin. NOTE: If an Intelligent key is routinely stored within 15 feet of a vehicle while it is in dealer inventory, the Intelligent Key battery should be replaced before the vehicle is delivered to the customer. This will ensure the customer receives Intelligent Keys without premature discharge. Intelligent Key batteries replaced for this reason are not covered under warranty. Nissan Bulletins are intended for use by qualified technicians, not 'do-it-yourselfers'. Qualified technicians are properly trained individuals who have the equipment, tools, safety instruction, and know-how to do a job properly and safely. NOTE: If you believe that a described condition may apply to a particular vehicle, DO NOT assume that it does. See your Nissan dealer to determine if this applies to your vehicle. 1/4 SERVICE PROCEDURE On-board method to disable the welcome light function 1. Push the ignition switch to the ON position. 2.
