34Red

UPDATED : I ended up selling the car as it was just getting worst every time I drove it, got rid of it and decided to get a 350Z and probably best decision I’ve made sticking with Nissan.

Omg thanks for the reply everyone !! Glad to know there’s a great community going on here! Just a quick update for everyone about the car that looks great but doesn’t run properly ! Turns out the head gasket needs replacement.. and the mechanic also discovered the A/T light keeps flashing and he did the diagnose to check the errors and it turns out my transmission needs a new solenoid as it’s locked in limp mode.. Slowly finding out more and more terror! If only money was growing in my backyard tree. But thanks everyone big lesson learnt!

I bought a Skyline R34 Turbo for about $10,000 but without roadworthy, the dodgy owner said there shouldn’t be anything needed for RWC and I trusted his words! :s But once I got the car and took it to mechanics and inspected it.. Mechanic said the car had a accident in the front and it pushed in some mechanical parts. Founding: -Ignition Coils MisFiring & Spark plugs were on there way -Rear Suspensions were busted -Missing Parking light wires -Water Pump leaking at weep hole -Instrument Cluster is Faulty -Missing 5 Wheel studs in Total -Harmonic Balancer was bent and damaging the belts -Radiator slowly leaking -Tyres has about 30% tread left -No coolant found in radiator so it rusted and corroded And the list goes on.. I just wanted to share my devastating story. I got $20 savings left in my bank account and hopefully that covers the cost of repairs ?

The incident happened when he was putting the power cable through the firewall and he said he must’ve split one of the wires accidentally while pulling it through where the BCM and other fuses were located. LUCKY LUCKY!

Hey guys FINALLY FOUND THE PROBLEM !! The mechanic followed the installation where all the wires were going and found a split wire hanging out, we fixed that up and now it’s all working !! Well done everyone for helping out! That was a hell of a task !! Tricky car !!

Here’s a photo where I mounted the ground wire for the amp (rear boot)

I took it back to the mechanics today and they tested the fuses and made sure all my ground wire was connected properly and it is. The amp ground cable is bolted in on the original amp holder and there was no loose cable that was hanging around so that clears that out. The mechanic just bought a spare BCM and other circuit board and is gonna try and replace it to see the difference if it works then I’ll have to reprogram my key and etc. Hopefully it gets fixed because I need to drive at night time sadly [emoji20] I’ll keep you all up to date ! Thanks guys

Thanks Max I have a feeling it could be a loose ground of some sort too and I test the plate lights where the globe plugs in with a circuit tester to see if it lights up but nothing The technician said it could be my BCM (Body Control Module) but if it is would the OBD 2 scanner pick this error up just to clarify ? because I don’t want to get a new BCM if that’s not the culprit. Time for me to check the ground wires throughly again. Thanks Max you have been so helpful !

So I checked with a multimeter and tested the tail light fuse next to the battery and it’s working, I checked all other fuses while I was at it. I tested my plate lights wire at the back and no light so it’s a wire that’s shorting it somewhere.. still boggled

The ground wire in the rear seats near the speakers controls all the tail lamp/ license light as refer to the manual book, but when I check out my rear seats I can only see 2 wires coming out and it’s the rear speaker wires which are black and brown on the right side and on the left side it’s black/yellow & green/yellow And at the moment my Line out converter is connected to both of those rear speaker wires. Could that be the culprit ? And my Remote wire is connected onto my Mirror 10amp. The Red Power cable is from the battery straight to the amp. I just realise my centre console light isn’t on anymore, everything still works but has no light ... I’m gonna go buy a multi meter tomorrow !

Thanks Max I’ve been looking around the tail lights and check the wiring and they been looking good so far, I moved them around abit in case it was crimped. All the cables were all visibly intact I have a itchy feeling maybe the line out converter is drawing out too much power and not putting out enough power for the tail light ? could it be a loose ground cable possibly ? Could it be my sub and amp ? :s I’ll dig in deeper and let you guys know and thanks for the advice guys !

Yeah I still got the problem and I know it’s not the Fuse, it’s a wiring issue and he must’ve wired it up wrong or he damage one of the wires going to the tail light. The fuse translation is just for knowledge

It’s a 2003 model.

Hi guys I’ve been searching all over the net but can’t seem to get a translation on the interior fuse box Any help would be great !

I tried taking off the Wedge connector that’s connected to the Remote cable and tried plugging back the 10amp fuse on its own but still no luck :S WTH COULD’ve HAPPENED :0
