The power to the stereo and climate control has started playing up in my M35 arx. I've got the tv screen and bose stereo. When it happens, all the lights go out, no sound comes from the stereo and the air con fan remains at what is was set and and can't be adjusted.

You can hit the side of the centre console and sometimes it will power up again.

Most of the time it is on but seems to be getting more intermittent.

Has anyone experienced this- and any suggestions?

Fuse seems ok (if it's the right one- haven't got a translated fuse cover sticker yet)

Isn't that one of the signs that your CD player is stuffing up?

I may be wrong as I have an RS which doesn't have the integrated stereo.

They can be fixed, so maybe give Chris Rogers a PM?

rip out the lot and send it over here.. thats something I can fix with a jig I have here.

Thanks Chris, I'll let the boys know that you can do it. The car will be going in to have the(very) intermittent radar cruise looked at at the same time....

as a suggesstion for the cruise. disable it and stick one of mine in there. that saves the annoyance of teh 110kmh lockout and the annoyance of the thing being weird..

I had the same problem on my car for a little while.

When it happens next, move your key slightly forward in the ignition barrel (not to the cranking point) and it should all come back on.

I had it happening on big bumps and thought a plug or something was loose. Turns out its just my ignition barrell was a bit dicky and I had heaps of keys on my key ring at the time too. So the key seemed to shift a little. Would not stop the car from driving fine. Just killed the stereo/tv etc and the air con would stay on the speed it was last on. Exactly as you described. If you can I would stop the first time you try it. It just needs to move the smallest amount.

I hope that helps. I took some keys off and I did not have a problem for 6 months up to when I sold the car.

good memory Andrew.

You have reminded me that I had the same problem also. I replaced the electronic part of the barrel (furthest back part of the barrel) and it was then perfect. The part is pretty cheap from Nissan and the bigger cost is the auto sparky.

I have am having exactly the same problem!!! Only difference is I have tried moving the keys around and have even replaced the ignition barrel switch and there is no change! The stereo doesn't work and climate control is stuck on 23 deg (it was switched off just before it cut out - it switched itself on!). Before it would cut out occasionally and switch back on immediately, but now it has been stuck off for 2 weeks. :wacko: I don't think its a stereo prob, as the climate cont is also included in the prob. Any other idea's or knowledge about this anyone???

Hi has anyone had any problems in regards to a nissan 2002 stagea? My heater controls arent working anymore and the fan is blowing out air on low and i cant turn it off. Nor any power running through the climate control buttons. And my head unit doesnt go either. We did manage to put a after market head deck in before using a harness however the head deck worked but the heater controls didnt so we put the factory head unit back in and bam. Doesnt work anymore. I cant seem to find a fuse thats blown either so im pretty stuck at the moment. Ive checked wiring as well and tried putting the after market head deck back in and that too aint going anymore . Is there something im missing or a hidden fuse somewhere that i cant find. Any help is very well much appreciated.

yeah its a common problem. you need a control unit for it.
I believe chris rogers is the man for it. I got factory double din unit that fixed it from memory. was 3-4 years ago when I fixed mine.

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
