My dash clock doesnt work. After reading a few posts brought up by the search function its either the fuse or the wireing to the clock.

Can someone please tell me which fuse affects the dash clock and where its located, what amps it is.

Someone said theres a couple of fuses called "electronic parts" under the dash that are 10a fuses?

Any help greatfull.

Cheers.

I have the same problem however all fuses have been checked. After my car was resprayed the head unit would not work and the aircon kept resetting to 25.0'C each time I turned the car on.

So what I'm saying is, if your aircon remembers the last temperature that was set, it is unlikely to be the fuse.

And that's where I stopped fault finding! :rofl: I have two clocks sitting on the bench - neither work - so I guess it isn't the clock itself either...

For what it's worth,

yeah i got a prob with the clock too, but i havnt looked into it yet.

the clock should have 4 wires going into it, earth, constant 12v, ignition, and illumation.

both the ingtion and constant 12v wires should be on fuses.

also, they dont have their own fuses, they probley share with other accessories.

Ill double check the shop manual, to be sure, to be sure

My clock dont work. I havent looked into it either. Not much help here sorry, but i thought that i'd just mention that every R32 i've been in the clocks were never working. It must be very common indeed. I'll get around to it sometime but just a matter of time.

clock works in all my 32s. i dont think i've ever seen one not working.

Steve any ideas on how to bench test one? Does the ignition need to be connected?

I assume illumination is not required - it will just remain on max brightness?

Here's the scan, for what it's worth.

Sweet thanks.

The only 2 that im not sure of are the 2x10amp "electronic parts" fuses.

Other than that i might just have to give the clock a miss, bugs me though.. :thumbsup:

Hey Mark, you might have to make the clock the subject of your next in depth tutorial mate!!! :D

Ps I decided to try and give a simple tutorial a go...

sweet, ill check it out!

also, i checked the clock plug on my gtr yesterday, and there was 0 power going to it, so i suspect its a differant problem. might be the fuse, but everything else works, and i doubt theyd have a single fuse for the clock.

ill let you know my findings

steve

bah f**k it. the shop manaual is freaking useless.

each wire has a special number which allows you to folow the wire through out the whoel diagram.

on the manual these a blured, which makes it impossible to folow unless you print out the schematic.

i have a print out at home, which i might try to follow.

does anyone has a high res copy???

Did you try the 2 fuses marked "Electronic Parts" under the dash? I think there both 10Amp.

I cant believe something as simple as a little clock could be such a pain in the ass!!! ;)

I might try and re-wire it into something else... :D

when i got my gtr the clock didnt work but didnt worry me, and my head light switch s##t it self and got one on ebay and come with dash surround with clock so i chucked it in and works fine, i have heard they are just cheap

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
