do you have it in the right way and powered up?

I got lazy and got Alberts to do it ... i would like to think that they know how to wire up something as simple as an FM expander. I'm taking a guess they mainly use second hand ones from other cars that have had their systems upgraded. I'm just worried that the Skyline might need a specific one for some strange reason ...

Hi guys..new here..well kind of anyway. Used to post back when i have my V35 (totalled :P ). Anyway..now i'm back with the V36 (never learned my lesson :D )..and since i can't remember my old user ID..had to register a new one..

Anyway, just bought myself a 2008 V36 coupe with Nav, music box, Side & Rear camera, leather seats. Not sure if i have the premium Bose or not (still no clue what model/package that is actually). I manage to work out quite a few of those Japanese menus/buttons (due to previous experience with my V35 :( ) but i could not, for the life of me, get the bluetooth to work!!! :ermm: . I manage to get to the menu where there is "Bluetooth" in the menu but the "Bluetooth On" button is greyed out. There is only 3 selectable buttons there which is the Bluetoth password change (the one where you can enter numbers), Bluetooth info and a button which leads to a lists of Japanese menus.

Is my bluetooth on already? if not, how do i on it? Before anyone ask, i know i have bluetooth as there is the phone & voice commannd button on my steering wheel. HELP ME!!... :ermm:

PS: Oh yeah..i have a Sony Erricson Satio phone.

I was playing around and found that through bluetooth the music on my iphone played through the car.

Interesting that on z-club, the 370z owners dont have this option of playing music through bluetooth?

I'd love to know how you got the iPhone to play music Bluetooth. Mines paired up and I can make calls, but the music just played through the iPhone speakers. As far as I know, the iPhones don't support the A2DP standard, maybe the iPhone 4 does. But then, the dealer at Mazda showed me that he could play music on his 3GS through the CX7.

Thank you to everyone who posted on this thread. With a bit of tinkering, I got my iPhone paired to the car last night. I also managed to get the music paired on Bluetooth as well, so that now I can play music from my iPhone and control it all from the steering wheel. Very cool.

This thread has gone a bit quiet, so I assume most people already know how to do this. If not, mention it on this thread and I will put up some detailed instructions.

Hey, I have my iPhone paired but cannot get the music to play via Bluetooth.

If you can do step by step that would be appreciated, I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Due to the nature of the thing I think a little video clip would be best if you can do one (plus it'll save you the pain of writing it up). I lost my camera on a recent bucks night... (along with the evidence).

Bose Sound Systems are an option in Japan, if you have a Bose sound equiment your front speakers should feature the Bose Logo also located in the back seat centre where arm rest sit would be replaced with two speakers, I am assuming subs or larger speakers.

Almost finished writing the new step-by-step process.

Will be adding it to the manual i have written in the next day or two!

(along with steps on how to update your music box albums from the net using gracenote / compact flash, more translated menus and some other stuff!)

Hi guys,

I have also got my iphone 3GS paired fine and can take/make calls no dramas but can't quite figure out how to get music streaming from the phone.

How did you guys do it?

Cheers

Pairing is the hard part

once you have done that

keep pressing 'DISC' until Blutooth comes up. you should be able to play from there

How did we do it? From the above it looks like NOONE has done it.

This does not work for me with my iPhone 3GS. I can easily select BT at the source. Have you actually had it working?

i use the blutooth from my iphone 4 to play music every day

unless you have a different system

post a pic of your unit

OK no matter how many times I hit either the 'DISC' button on the centre console or the 'Source' button on the steering wheel nothing comes up.

I'm playing music on the Iphone 3GS, phone is paired and able to make and receive calls. The stereo just doesn't want to recognise bluetooth streaming as a source.

I'm wondering if there's a setting somewhere to enable bluetooth streaming as a source?

      This is the GTR fuel pump. Yellow shows 12V, orange shows earth. The ECU provides the earth to activate the fuel pump relay. The ECU side of teh relay will pull low when the ECU activates. This is the RB20 fuel pump. Almost the same, but a little simpler. You can see I indicated (above) where the 12V line goes down to the RB20 diagram on the overall diagram, whch shows both RB26 and RB20. This is where I show it coming in on the RB20 diagram below. You can see that the dropping resistor is handled differently. When the fuel pump control is not providing earth to the pump, the pump earths through the dropping resistor and thus runs at lower voltage (some is wasted over the resistor) and runs slower. I showed that "not 12V and not quite earth" portion of the wiring in a paler orange. The rest of the wiring that I did not colour on that little section below the pump would be orange when the fuel pump coontroller is providing earth. This drop is handled inside the fuel pump controller in the GTR. Regardless, you can see where 12V is supposed to be, where earth is supposed to be. The key on prime is via the ECU providing the pump for only a few seconds the switching off. You should be able to see that happen.

      Yeah so when you turn key to IGN the fuel pump should run for a few seconds. If you find the fuel pump relay (and have a multimeter, and a second person) to can check the relay inputs.  One trigger pin should be either fully earthed  The other trigger pin should get 12v from the ECU for say 3 seconds when you turn key to IGN, and at all times that key is at START (note, I said this from memory, it may be the other way around, ie one pin always has IGN 12v and the earth has continuity to earth when you turn the key) One Pin should have a good battery voltage The last pin goes to the fuel pump + Also note that if the power to the relay is good, and the relay is working, it is worth checking the pump has a good earth too. There is a computer in the standard system that increases the earth resistance to slow down the pump when not required, pretty old school and it may have failed

      All this talk about fuel and fancy ECUs, meanwhile my poor old R32 has neither.... When the ignition is turned on, should there be power running o the fuel pump constantly or just for the few seconds it usually takes to prime the pump? About to go have another look at it, have watched some YouTube vids on how to use a  multimeter and looked at some wiring diagrams but really have NFI what I'm looking for because electricity is invisible

      Yuh....but weren't all the supertourers, except maybe the Audis, FWD? I don't recall any of the others being AWD.

      They ran them in Oz Super Tourers too https://www.supertouringregister.com/register/vehicle/212/ (I'm so old I remember racing with Matthew Fox) They ran them in Oz Super Tourers too https://www.supertouringregister.com/register/vehicle/212/ (I'm so old I remember racing with Matthew Fox)
