i bought an s13 digi climate control which had a loom modified to suit a31...

it works... however... not entirely

lights up... but temp control doesnt work

fan does... and everythingelse... just when i adjust the temp it doesnt go hot or cold... just stays cold

loom is dodgey

I've considered attempting this with either S13 or R32 digital units, but I just don't have the time at the moment, and a few other more important issues on my car have priority (suspension/brakes etc).

I'd be keen to see the article, even if just for the pinout diagrams

s13 is a lot closer match (in fact if you have the digital sub-loom, it looks like it'll plug in straight up)

r32 would be a lot of custom rewiring

Is the page blurry or is it the photo?

I can make out most of the writing, but 18, 19, 20 are a bit fuzzy, looks like CN2-13, CN2-8 and CN2-7 respectively. Please confirm?

The jap symbols next to 8 of the pins I'm assuming means not used (or nothing connected).

Though the symbols next to pin 1 I could hazard a guess it means something like wire to constant 12V or something.

Only other thing is you have to rewire a couple other points on the S13 to make it work, I'm could only assume something similar would have to happen in the cefiro.

daisu are you a wiring junky?

i have my loom here... as stated above i can adjust the fan control and it lights up and everything works... apart from aircon controls, alternating which type of setting the aircon is on (footwell, head, footwell/head/ etc) and the temp controls - dont work... obviously some wiring needs to be fixed

i could send it to you if you want to use it as something to work off and make a duplicate for yourself?

only condition is you fix mine so it works :D

Only problem with messing around trial and error with the digital units, is you can damage the circuitry, then you don't know if the wiring it incorrect or not. This happens on the S13s when people plug the digital unit into their unmodified analogue looms, it lights up, i'm not sure if you get fan control or not, but it also permanently damages one of the functions like fresh/recirc or something. I can't be stuffed looking at the S13 guide right now.

I think I'll try on my own loom first, then when I'm sure I know what I'm doing I'll let you know how to do it.

Either that or softy will do it :rofl:

Hi All, I have just purchased a Nissan Cefiro 92 and the auto climate control unit failed first day and is stuffed. Before getting online I found that my r32 digital climate control unit plugs in by two of the three Ceffy plugs, however as the cefiro has a third additional plug it obviously won’t work without mods.

I have read everything I can find however I am not getting much of an understanding as to what wires go where to convert the a31 auto climate to the r32 digital climate control unit.

Is there a post i have missed that outlines in English solder this colour wire to that spot???

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I got caught in the rain and the fan won’t go to demist mode + air con won’t turn on so it sucks.

daisu has repined and soldered his to work but he wont/cant post up the pin outs.... the japanese scans just confuse me every time i try to work it out >_<

ca s13 unit will work

So i thought all s13 have 2 plugs not the three like i have on mine? have i missed some thing are ca 3 plug ?

    • (it is a brand new ported mellings pump) I suspect the lack of pressure is due to the leak. It was *not* that low in other logs of oil pressure in the past. It wasn't that hot either, but not far off.
    • Would a Mellings oil pump be a viable option  From my time with a LS, and talking to tuners and LS specialists, the "weak" OEM oil pump is one of the first things they recommend to swap out if I was going to give the engine any high RPM I opted for a Mellings high volume, with the high pressure springs and I never had a issue with it Cost wise they are not expensive in the scheme of things 
    • Just bought a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO VQ25DET and spent the last two weekends cleaning and detailing it.. still have to do the wheels and the engine bay but the rest of it came up nice. Imported 2011 to S.A. and I'm the third owner since it was imported. I met the guy who brought it over, he went to Japan and picked out the car, bought it and ordered the wheels. He also gave me a list of stuff he did to the car with receipts. Coil overs (I have the original springs), 3" exhaust from the dump pipe back no cat, Custom dump pipe,(I have the original exhaust), Plenum spacer, 18" custom Work XSA wheels (need restoring, I've made a start..), Shift kit put through the 5 speed tiptronic auto, TV and menus/screens changed to english, Australian DTV tuner installed in rear. I've just had four new discs and new pads as well as all the fluids including the brake fluid replaced. I have all the receipts for the last 15 years and the import papers in a nice folder. Car looks great, goes like hell but fuel economy is not a thing lol.. pics next..
    • I ended up in this rut again lol, and used a shit ton of filler. One thing I can't understand is, even after using a big long block and going in long X pattern strokes, I always end up at bare metal again with no filler, and my repair started at one end of the door and now I've chased my tail to almost the other end of the door. I was thinking of hitting the panel with a hammer where it might be a high spot and making everything low then filling it, I did this on a small section on my other door by mistake and I think I fixed it lol. Is this a bad idea? The other thing is with guidecoat, whether it's the powder or spray, after I sand all the guide coat off, it doesn't reveal anything for me in terms of high spots and low spots and makes it especially hard when it's bare metal (at least in powdered form), am I doing something wrong here, or likely a high spot I keep going over and creating valleys? Lastly, stupid question but, is it possible that after sanding if I only sand over the filler area where I know to be a dent that it's impossible for me to dig into that dent? Unless there are other problems which I missed.
