Hi All,

I purchased another set of wing mirrors for my S1 Stagea as they were advertised to have the factory heaters in them... Anyway I pulled my current ones off and they have the same looms as the new ones but one plug of the plugs (two pin) isnt plugged into anything. And I cant seem to find where to plug it into....

Could some one with the factory heaters in working condition pull a door skin and take some snaps and maybe even chase the wire back to see what I need to modify?

Im sure chook or Kiwi will be aware of what im talking about!

Cheers,

Chris

I could have a look next monday, are you sure your car was a 'cold area' version, you have the windscreen elements as well ? i would think one plug would be the mirror motors and other the heater, but only on Cold area cars.

also there is a rear fog light instead of a second reverse light.

BTW the windscreen de-icer is on a seperate switch but like Bob said the mirrors work of the main demister switch.

AFAIK all of those items (cold area kit) came together - so if you had one you should have them all

(Oh, that and rust from driving on salted roads - pretty sure that is a feature of the cold area kit too)

Ok so these are the two plugs on the 4 mirrors Ive got/had... My car has a loom for the larger 5 pin plug on both sides but only drivers side has loom for the smaller 2 pin plug even though both mirrors have it. Is that the mirror heaters?

A guy on the English stagea forum had this too, Heated mirror on drivers side and no wiring in the door for it on the passenger side.

He extended the wires and wired it into the rear demister with no ill effects .

I haven't got any !

No wiring, No heated mirrors .. Bugger all.. :)

my guess is both people have had one or the other door replaced with the wrong one at some time.

LOL!!

Wish I had done my homework and found this thread before I got all excited about getting heated mirrors (from kidafa no less)

Pulled the door car off and wtf??!! Mr Nissan didnt put the plug there for me! So I get on here and this is what I find lol

Never mind though wasnt why I bought them.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      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

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
