Hey guys, My Climate Control on the R34 stopped Illuminating itself. Im guessing that the bulb inside has decided to take a break lol.

Any info i can get on changing it ? Because it makes it a hell-a-lot hard to navigate when im driving at night and try to use the Air Con etc etc.

I only just noticed it last night lol! When the hazard button wasnt illuminated.

Cheers in advanced !!

1. pop off your aircon vents (using flat head screwdriver and a cloth)

2. take out ashtray and undo the screw under it

3. pop off your gear surround (using flat head and cloth near handbrake)

4. under four screws (two top, two bottom, to remove the entire center console including climate control panel)

5. take off the four screws (some only have two) holding the climate control panel together.

6. disconnect the two plugs connecting the climate control panel.

7. you'll notice that there are several 'levers' to open climate control panel itself... i use a guitar pick (or three) to open without breaking any levers.

8. you'll find three twist type bulb holders. twist them to remove.

9. insert new bulbs (t10 i think, not sure though). Or make some new led ones up, by pushing the legs through the two little holes in the bulb holder.

10. check to see if they light up. when it's all back together.

reverse process to install again.

Hope that helps.

Cheers man that was great!

Will try this arvo when i get back, need to get those T10 bulbs though, im guessing their the same for the Dash aswell.

You wouldnt know how to dismantle the dash to get to the bulbs would you :thumbsup: ?

Np's man. Dash are T5's I think... the climate control are smaller. Although you can modify the T5 led's dan sells to fit the climate control panel by bending out the legs and sticking them in.

To dismantle the dash..

1. remove the bezel around the dash cluster.

2. unscrew the four screws (two top and two bottom i think).

3. drop the steering wheel to it's lowest point.

4. slowly pull towards the cluster towards you.

5. with your hands, reach in from behind and unclip the 3 or 4 looms connecting itself to the cluster.

6. with all looms disconnected from the cluster, try to pull left (in between the steering wheel) to remove.

7. replace all the appropriate bulbs (make sure they work, as led's have polarity).

reverse to reinstall.

my aircon button lights stopt working, i opended it up, seems they are blown, i took the bulb to autobarn, they said they dont sell them , where can i find them? are they t5 or t10

sorry to dig up an old thread. I am based out in the UK and have the same problem and would like to replace my blown bulbs but would like to install the original colour back in. Also i have tried to take the blue plastic cap off the blown bulb and have not been able to do this successfully as it seems the blue cap has been caked onto the bulb from continuous use and age. If someone knows the part number for the original part i would rather prefer that. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
