Dont know what it is for, maybe for heated rear view mirrors? The R30 models have the great feature that if your windows were down after you turned the engine off, if you opened the drivers door the centre console window switches could be used to close the windows. It could not have costed much to incorporate in any model. I wonder why Nissan dropped it.

what about the other buttons? do any of them work without keys?

one thing i've been meaning to look into is the lock/unlock switch. does yours work with the keys out? mine does, even with the car alarmed mine does. what i'm worried about is that means anyone can slide a bit of wire or something past the window seal and press that button and my doors unlock (well except the drivers side) easy way to break-in.

one way around this is to feed the power to that switch from the window switches feed, as they only work with the ignition turned on.

Dont know how similar the Stags are, but i know the r33's passenger door can be unlocked using the button on the drivers door contorls without the ignition etc.

I disabled the unlocking ability of the button by cutting a certain wire, this is exactly what i thought when i first saw it.

So if you can lock the passenger door with that button, but cant unlock it, this would be the likely reason

i want to try and tie mine into the alarm. so when its armed that switch wont work. should be easy enough just got to get motivated to do it.

Yea im sure it could be done by any capable person with a bit of auto elec knowledge.

But i dont even use mine, never have used mine, so the fact i can still lock the passenger side and not unlock it is fine with me :happy:

Pulled the drivers door skin off to check the speaker condition and found this wiring mod to the window switches, does anyone know what it is, does or what for?

Cheers

maybe your alarm puts all the windows up when you arm it?

My drivers door switchs can lock and unlock all the doors regardless of key situation, and I can use my windows for about 10 secs after ignition off. I just wish the stagea was like my wifes beetle. You can use the key in the door lock to open and close the windows.

So the other day I decided to rejoin the wires to see what happens. Now the drivers door window stays active until the keys are removed and the drivers door is opened then closed. After it is closed to window becoms inactive. I like it better this way as I usually notice the window is slightly open as I am exiting the vehicle. :thumbsup:

thats how mine it, but it only works on the drivers door

maybe they tried to mod it so that it worked on all the windows?

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
