Anyone know how to run aircon diagnostics?

I have R32 skyline, and the aircon keeps turning itself off all the time. I have had it checked and was told everything is now fine except it stops blowing cool air for a while. The auto-electrician couldn't find out why, and said he had another one that does the same thing.

Any help anyone can give me will be greatly appreciated.

Its a while since I've done this, so here goes:

Turn ignition to ON.

Hold down the (A/c) OFF button for about 5 sec. I think it starts having a 'flash' attack.

Use HOT / COLD buttons to move through the various diagnostic tests that it carries out.

Any errors will be flashed as a number after its all over.

Turn off ignition to cancel diagnostics.

Advice - make sure you park the car in full sunlight to avoid error 26 (sunlight sensor).

Compressor is now fine...did have aproblem but it is now sorted. The problem I now have is ever five minutes or so the a/c blows outside air in, not cooling it.

Auto electrician said it is most likely a sensor somewhere not working properly, and if i can find out how to do diagnostics it may help.

Thanks a lot blind_elk, will give it a go tomorrow, in the sunlight. Do you know what the different numbers mean?

You should go out to the next meet at Benarby.

A class specificly for imports and 4's.

Should be real good, i hear people from bundy & rocky coming just because of that.

If i have a fourth gear by then i will come back for this. You should get decent times, 4wd and all.

Who's your importer?

Aria jap are the guys importing the front cut for me there in sydney!(couple of jap guys that don't talk much english though)

Yeah I could go but with no manual and turbo lag I would only get a high 15, so why bother to go if you only get laughed at!!!

By the way I crashed the R6(blue motorbike) two weeks ago!!! lucky to be alive today because I landed on my head after collecting a trailer!!(shh probably over 110ish impact speed)will lose licence though!! Not injured though! back at work the next day!!

    • Ok so will run the piping over that radiator and no plenum it is. Put that money towards a Haltech and see what suits. Any ideas something like an elite 2000 or 2500 right? My long term goal is 300kw e85 and manual swap and that’s a dream come true. For now will be 200kw and auto the stock rb25det neo intake isn’t too expensive with throttle body. If I was to have the port matching done, Would that be better than the stock de intake as the det has bigger holes plus has the spots for sensors etc? And suit more long term?  appreciate the advice?   
    • You understand AFR is not the only thing that contributes to it pinging yeah? Funnily, what the AFR gauge will tell you when it likely is pinging, is going to make you think things are really safe and good.
    • Run the piping how we all have for decades. Also the duel runners with the +T setup dramatically helps it gets on boost quicker. Yes, chase huge power it'll become a problem, but you're a long way off when you're already saying an aftermarket ECU is out of the budget. You also say NisTune as it's simple, and then immediately say it'll be painful, meaning... It won't be simple. It will likely cost you a lot more stuffing around with a Nistune, than just putting a Haltech or similar in.
    • I’ll order an afr gauge to keep an eye on it.  Then will get a haltech soon 
    • TD05 or maybe pulsar PSR2867r Gen 2?  id love a garret but it’s quite out the budget for now and I’m not chasing crazy power.    yeh fuel pump haven’t looked into but whatever works, kind of last on my list.    Nistune because it’s simple but Ik it’s a lot of pain especially as I’m auto +t with the whole seperate TCM etc still investigating that. Haltech id love but once budget tight for now atleast.    finally the reason I’m trying for a plenum instead of the stock intake is I already have a standard Intercooler mounted etc. so the ports are on both sides so trying to not have to go over the clutch fan radiator etc. trying to find a good deal return flow if I don’t than this will do for now I guess. btw any ideas with that, apparently some people have to cut blades to reduce it from hitting the Intercooler piping over the radiator ? Thanks
