Dont know if anyone has had this problem but when i turn my key to the 'on' position, none of the lights come up on my dash. The stereo works and the turbo timer works as does the alarm but windows and sunroof dont. They car cranks over but doesnt start. Usually when the all the lights come on you can hear it power up, this time theres nothing. Checked all fuses and nothings blown. Is it possible that something is loose that i should be looking for? The car was drivin an hour earlier aswell.

sounds like you car isn't really turning to the "ON" position. the key might be in the ON position but the car isn't powering up to ON.

check the positive battery terminal connector, there will be your large core (main) cable and also some smaller wires on plugs, check the smaller cable haved become unplugged.

if thats all good the check to see if you have a constant power source to the ign barrell, and that it is powering up the "ON" position wires.

Theres heaps of wires around the battery, is there one in specific or just check all in general? Im on holidays from tomorow so ill pull around the steering wheel apart and have a look. Just wanted to see if anyones had this problem before and knew exactly what it was, not sure if its common or not.

Have you checked the main fusible links (big fuses) as it sounds like you may have blown one of these. These are located in the engine bay near the water bottle on the drivers side under the black cover.

Cheers,

Ben

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
