Need A Little Bit Of Help, *r32 Boot/fuel Cap Release Related*


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I snapped my boot realease cable bout 6 months ago.

This morning I woke up and decided to make an atempt at fixing it but I think Ive made it much worse instead.

If theres anyone out there who has had a similar problem and know a way of fixing it then that would be much apreciated. Im willing to travel.

How it sits now, Ive Soldered the cable back together, it seemed strong enough, but somehow Ive pulled to much slack on the cable, so ive connected it back up to the lever but it's pretty much useless because its too lose.

Thanks guys.

Just chop some off, and re-attached it.

Although "too much" slack there shouldnt be.

If i recall, the cable is internal to the car, so pull the side trims off and lift the carpet to see whats going on?

Does the lever still pull the cable, or has it totally stopped working?

leaver works but its useless coz theres an abundance of cable sorta curled up next to it, amazing how strong the solder join was, but i might of pulled alot excess cable from inside the cavity, its got me stumped.

    • I had issues with my car today after removing the rear bumper. The headlights aren't working when turning the stalk but high beams are working and the rear tail light where the reverse camera is wired up won't turn on when the stalk is activated, but the reverse camera, tail light indicator and brake light all seem to work. I checked the fuses they aren't blown. I think the reverse camera could have possibly gotten pinched but shouldn't be as there is a decent amount of room. I did use the lights and loom for the license plate from the new bumper but also tested the old one in case but made no difference. This isn't for a skyline also. Any ideas what it could be? It was working when I drove I'm pretty sure, then on my return home I noticed my headlights weren't working.

    • If we're going after market gauges, I'm a big fan of Australian made... Get some RedArc!
    • Unless you're fortunate enough to buy a newer car, getting an older style plate to match your name/car is difficult because they've already been purchased.  Unlike other countries, personalised plates are locked to the country and not region, so there can't be multiple versions of the same plate but with a different area code.  Hope that helps
