What Are These Beneath The Cefiro Dash?

[huddy]

Hey all,

I know this is another thread, but still... it can't be too bad for us all for future reference. I'm wanting to know what these connectors are for and also what these little black boxes are.

All of it is from underneath the dash. mostly from centre area and toward passenger side.

I believe that they are for stereo, a/c & heater controls, glovebox light, possibly the sensor for a/c??, cigarette lighter... but there's more than just those - can anyone identify these at all???? They aren't connected an i believe they're not required, but i dont want to cut them out until i get some feedback.

cheers.

1.

Left to right

CD Player - i believe this is for steering wheel controls or something...plugs into factory deck, but aftermarket harness adapters dont utilize it. Does NOT control antenna, lighting, dim lighting, etc....assuming its for controls.

CD player, main harness (yellow = 12v, red = acc, blue = antenna)

Light for cig lighter, or ashtray....or it might be the harness for a lead that connects into that, and lights up the PRND21 for Auto's.

4:

Dash cluster (speedo, tacho, etc)

7:

One of the modules under the steering collumn...that might be time control module (responsible for locking doors when moving), turns light on the roof on when a door is open, emmits door open light on dash, etc.

8: That's the little f**ker that beeps @ 105+ kmp/h. Located same plase as #7

Not to be confused with the reverse beeper/door locked/open + keys in ignition/lights on beeper (which is behind the far right air con vent.

9: Same location...not sure, this would be another time control module, door locks maybe.

I've read that cutting these can cause problems with central locking / alarm arming, and confuse the ECU with HICAS shit somehow.

Best to leave those little ones except the speed warning connected.

10: I beleive is a relay for air con ?

Now then, post pics of drifter or ban

Thanks Nic (btw thanks again for the dvd i'm just about to start reading the instructions!) - that's definately a start! I forgot to mention that I have re-connected most things that are staying, including: dash, hazards, indicator and wiper controls, wiper control relay...

1 - ok - that's going!

2 - white female connector 2 pin - 1xblue wire with white trace, 1 xblue wire with red trace ????????

3 - big grey square???

white female connector 3 pin flat ??????

white female connector 4 pin square ??????

white female connector 4 pin flat ??????

4 - ???? It's not dash cluster - that's all plugged in. would it be for the aircon/heater controls???

(from left to right)

black female connector ?????

black female connector (wider) ????

white female connector ?????

white female connector (wider) ????

5 - black female connector 2 pin ????? cigarette lighter power ??????

6 - white female connector 5 pins - plugs into another connector a short distance away ???????

7 - white connector plugs into small circuit board????

8 - awesome - that's going! (and i can probably identify that other one on drivers side)

9 - black box - other side is just blank ???????????

10 - nice. can this be confirmed???? if so - it's going!

[Nic_A31]

1. -

2 Could possibly be the trigger for brake lights, or goes onto the full throttle sensor behind the pedal.

3 If this is close to the ECU side, might be a relay ?

Looks like relay to me...

4 Must be for air con, now that you mention it.

5 -

6- Possibly for the speaker behind the air con vent, that goes off for lights being left on, door locks, etc.

7, 8 & 9 just leave connected, all those modules under the collumn work together to do alot if different shit. Just disconnect the speaker for speed, but judging by the amount of sound deadening (or lack of) and the cockpit buttons, I'd say you probably won;t be hearing it anyway.

10 TBC

[Kris..]

So much better with pics lol your pm was confusing on NS

now I can have a proper look for what ever hasn't been already answered

[huddy]

thanks again - definitely looking for more help with these if possible

KRIS your input would be great aswell!

and Nic - pics as requested!

Faaaark you are full on Huddy!

I see you have the same tubs as that S13 on ns.com - Ben I think his name is?

[huddy]

lol cheers. Tubs may look the same, but they are custom. turned out well i thought!

now help me with all these bits !!!!!!!!!!

[huddy]

#8 now removed!

hey Nic - would the FAST software show diagrams of inside the car??? (haven't looked at it yet) cheers

[Nic_A31]

not for this excersize.

FAST breaks down individual sections, such as wiring (all independant), air con components, seats, dash (in sections), other interior, etc

[huddy]

#7 - small circuit board thingy

does it look to be this thingo that mounts to dash, behind the cluster???

****EDIT actually don't reackon it is... looks like just a connector for the dash cluster****

^ that shud be the auto on/off headlight function. you should see the sensor under that purple rounded square next to the demister vents

[huddy]

ooooh I need that purple rounded square! I lost mine

cheers

[Dan_J]

if u want 2 make it work just cut some polycarbonate(get it at bunnings) into shape and tint it

** Was this cef factory manual?

1 - stereo

2 - Foot brake plug?**

4 - A/C control unit

5 - Cigarette Lighter

[Nic_A31]

Swap dashes ?

Since you're making a drifter and don't need a pretty one ... ?

[huddy]

2 - Foot brake plug?**

4 - A/C control unit

5 - Cigarette Lighter

awesome, thanks for that.

and no it wasn't factory manual so it has heaps of auto badness oozing out of it (so if you can identify more... sweet ! )

... and Nic - it's not my dash... just an example - mines cut to shit

Scratch number 2. I just checked it out and its not the same plug as the footbrake plug. although it looks very similar to the plug that is connected to the accelerator.

Ill do a bit of poking around in the laurel tomorrow and try figure pout where and what each of those is.

[huddy]

yer cool that would be great - if you could suss out any connectors around the a/c / heater box thing that would be great.

maybe can identify number 3

[32 4whore]

bad huddy. Bad.

SHould of labelled it all when you started. .

You need hand? I have 2 free most weekends .

You call me. OK BYE
