Mongoose M80 Problem - Only One Side Of The Indicators Work And Only 1 Door Unlocks


Recommended Posts

Hi Every1,

I have a R34 with a Mongoose M80 alarm installed in it.

When unlocking it, the central locking doesnt work properly (passenger side door does not unlock) and only half of the indicators work.

I've been doing some research. Could this be caused by a blown fuse in the alarm itself? If so, where is the fuse? Is it actually in the mongoose unit?

And could both problems (indicators and door not unlocking) both be caused by the fuse? Or when the fuse is normally blown, does it only impact the indicators? (If this is the case, im assuming I also have a stuffed actuator).

Will be giving this a go tomorrow, but always appreciate advice from the pro's.

Thanx heaps in advance for the direction.

sounds like someone did not know what they were doing myself. it is a fuse and if you can find the unit to will be very apparent.

Thanks Chris, found a busted fuse for the alarm and replaced. Has fixed the indicators but the passenger side door still does not automatically unlock.

Will buy a new lock actuator and fit. Unless there is a fuse in one of the stock fuseboxes for it (From memory there isnt?)

If u know off the top of your head?

Hey mate, fixed this today - issue was caused by a fuse missing in the interior fuse box! The 10A bat fuse.

Have attached a pic incase it helps any1 else 1 day.

Regarding my previous post, was going to replace the actuator as I thought it had ceased. Great that this was not the case.

Thanks heaps anyway though!

    • 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.
