Hey guys,

On my heater console all the buttons light up with a green background but the two for fresh from out the car and recirculated air have no backlight, as circled in the photo below.

Now im just wanting to know if all r34's are like this. Secondly if not and something has blown how do i change it?

Cheers :P

Hey dude, the two aircon buttons for re-circulating and, and air from outside the car light up green depending on which one you have in effect, the A/C button also lights up green when its switched on, and the two buttons on the far right, the front and rear de-foggers light up orange when in effect

hope that helps

Sounds like a blown bulb. If it is blown.. there's a thread about changing to LEDs.. follow that as the process to remove and replace is the same.

Remove A/C Vents.. with a flat head on one side. Its a clip thing.

Remove a screw behind the ash tray.. remove gear surround.. unplug the ciggi thing (can't remember what you call it :P) ..

you should be able to see 4 silver screws that's holding the whole unit.. Unscrew those..

Move everything forward.. There should be 2 screws on each side to hold the A/C unit to the brackets.. Undo those.. Don't forget to unplug the 2 connectors for the A/C unit.. Take out the unit and you should be able to see 3 white circles thing.. locate the side of the blown bulb.. use a flat head turn it 1/4 (I think) and it'll become loose.. get it out and replace bulb..

Well.. that's on top of my head but it should be along those lines...

Have fun :) .. oh and I don't know which size bulb you need as I replaced with LEDs on mine.

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
