Anyone have any info on a Shift Control Unit for S2 Stagea, I have owned this car for around 1 year and tow my race car with it.

Over the last year the A/T dash light has come on dash when i was towing on the freeway. It lost drive and just free revved. Pulled over and turned car off. Got out checked fluid was all fine, restarted car and kept going with no other problems.

After this went and got the auto serviced but they found no problems and even said the fluid was quite cleans that came out.

Was all going good for a few months but now the A/T light seems to come on the dash more regularly, all i do is pull over turn the car off restart the car and goes fine again for a few weeks.

So I looked up and done the diagnostic check that is on the forums, it’s come up with one fault which is 13. Shift Control Unit.

So has anyone had the same problem or know where the Shift Control Unit is located, I don’t have a service manual so have no idea where to start looking.

Any help would be great.

Would like to say thanks for the help so far, was getting all happy thinking was on my way to fixing the problem. So pulled off the Drivers side kick panel and......... have no Shift Control Unit there????

Here is a image from my car let me know if you can see it. I will fell very dumb if you can but does not look like its there?

Any other suggestions before I start pulling covers off the car from everywhere.

dont fret yet, mine is same, apologies, diagram was from R34, but shouldnt be too far away, check under dash, should still have the part number on it to help u. There is a similar looking unit under dash between steering column and fuse panel, could be the culprit.

so, for better or worse, my drivers side panel is pretty much the same (although the relays are blue strangely enough).

I looked for the control unit part number for my vin WGNC34 102488, and it returns part not found, ie there is no part# 31036 for my vin.

maybe post or pm your vin to chook or myself, something strange here.

also, chook, i was not able to find diagram 310-A2 as shown in your screen shots....section 310 goes to 310-b1 and 310-b2 for my vin?

the part under dash is 31038-0V700, "shift control assy", not "shift control unit" ie the 31036 part, which comes up as 'no applicable part #' for yours and mine as well, but may still exist somewhere ??? but im leaning towards 31038 being the one and only C/U the more I interrrogate FAST.

worth swapping this part before you go any further to eliminate it.

Ok fantastic, at least I know what part to replace. BIG Thank you to chook and Duncan for you knowledge and research.

Will try and locate a replacement one to put in the car on Monday and keep people posted if the problem is gone may takes a few weeks or months to be 100% sure as it has come and gone a few times over the last year.

If anyone has this part lying around (I know it’s a long shot) Can I buy it please.

Will call Nissan on Monday see if they have any also.

    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.  
    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
