Hi guys

Basically while removing my power window black box today, I noticed a wire has been cut for the harness to the remote central locking module. Just wondering if there would be any reason for this? I have a Mongoose M60 alarm installed and I dont want to mess that up if its been cut so the alarm can run properly

Heres a pic, located on drivers side door, to the right of the power window box:

If anyone knows what the wire is for then it would be great to hear so I can work out if it needs to be reconnected :)

Thanks

why hte hell was that NOT removed.... I bet you have an added actuator in the door as well..

that is the dealer fitted remote entry unit. the cut wire was the power feed to it. the whole thing needed to be pulled when the alarm went in.

they used that on a lot of cars over the years mainly in the R33 series. I have come across the odd 32 GTR with it fitted but they were rare.

take a full shot of the door if its still apart. I want to see what they did when the alarm went in.

thats strange, never thought about that

Got 2 more photos for you, hope there what you wanted, might try unplugging the box if you confirm what you said from these two photos

Does look a bit like an aftermarket actuator is in there...... Must have done a lazy job of installing the alarm then I guess?

yep someone didn't bother to look at all. they plonked another actuator ofver the top of a perfectly good OEM one..

don't pull the module. it will stuff the CDL system up. they usually need a minor rewire when you remove that box.

well if you can dont tell me that publicly here :P

Damn hey, how hard is the re-wire? (I'm guessing because that hasnt been done you can steal my car easily lol) Im pretty good with auto electrical stuff and can probably do it myself, depending on the difficulty

Dont know a great deal about the Nissan central locking system.

Just did a quick google search and have found a relay diagram and a diagram from a pulsar locking system which seemed a bit more helpful but not sure if its the same as the skyline system (or a correct diagram even)

Pulsar Single wire Locking

But other then what I've just googled, I dont know a great deal about how the system is wired.

Sounds like a challenge to me! Come to the Airlie Beach cruise hahahaha.

pay the ticket to proserpine..

cal,

an understanding would have helped :)

if you do decide to pull that module them the yellow and violet wires are the OEM actuator drive wires. hook those to the added actuator wiring and remove the added one. a bit of fiddling witll net a result as I cannot remember which way they are meant to go.

there will be a thin set of wires - white and black. those control the FACTORY CDL module in the dash (S1,S1.5 - passenger side S2,S3 drivers side.)

when you pull that module out make sure the circuit stays intact back to the factory door harness two pin plug.

if you acheive that then you can reuse that actuator.

IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT I SAID DO NOT ATTEMPT IT!!

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
