good work, all the best.

As for the polarity, it will all depend on where the switch is (so to speak) to find out if it will drive the right way. Don't think you want it to drive the wrong way.

you should be able to work out that fairly easily without connecting it first.

see picture above Stephen.....

It all works schaaaaaweeeeeeeeet!....(YAY!)

I was having a bit of fun with the polarity comment!...I assure you buddy!.....I used a multimeter, prior to committing to a solder joint.

Saved me some serious dosh, this fix!!

with a dwell/'action' of only <500ms (half a second), it luckily would create no issues if you were to wire it the wrong way, (gear damage wise)....it would just work in reverse....no internal 'gear callibration' was necessary either!....the gear either swings one way or the other..creating a push/pull action.

PS. It's still working!!!..(it's had about 300 test 'actions' so far.)..I expect it to last a few years!

hahaha...nah...that guy is a pro...I'm a hack.

but a good one :)

I was looking at the original item you had was was thinking jaycar myself. only issue I saw was resealing it.

Thanx Chris!...if it wasn't for you I wouldn't have got my ass into gear and actually attempt it...(the Yen thing scared me!)

Yes, re-sealing...well....I thoroughly inspected the area of my boot for any traces of splash or oxid....couldn't find any, dry as a bone.

So I taped her up.!......Honestly, if she fails I'll enjoy fixing it again...I have access to many robot arm servos!..lol!..(Z-axis drive motors).

Ok, good work and I vote you Chris 2IC!

Whatch your back Chris...

So what did you save, what was the part worth?

So, if we get the same problem we can come and see you about the supply of a Robot Arm Servo.

Honest...I've got nothing on Chris....(waves the Chris banner)

I was quoted between 160 and 200 buh, plus fitment, from Nissan...a phone call, with the FAST numbers from Chris.

The cost to me in actual was, ....'my time'.

But Stephen, if you ever need some help (with this unit)-(heaven forbid), I'll gladly help you...the motor is nothing special, in itself....and I'm willing to bet that a better sized item (motor) could be found at a shop.

If I had the time I'd ask for your units, fix them then send them back....(if I had the time).

Cheers mate.

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
