Damn, had this problem in my gtr today.

Dash went, and windows won't wind.

Car still runs.

Found a blown fuse.

Replaced and keeps blowing.

Thought you might offer some insight.

Congratulations on your fix.

Can anyone help with mine?

Extra symptom, when you replace the fuse, the torque split gauge goes straight up and over max.

im not familiar with 32 gtrs or atessa systems in general. is it possible that the torque split device is the cause? if not, theres really not much you can do besides making sure the wires are in good condition and start poking shit with a multimeter. sorry i cant be more of a help man. good luck

Got the same problem on my mates 32 - no luck yet. It also has a torque split controller and only begun doing this after he climbed an embankment recently. Everything seems to be in tact have had it on the hoist and checked "everything".

Loses power to windows, rev tacho and the front torque gauge goes spastic to maximum

Happens when he goes over a bump. Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks

id be double checking the wiring to the gearbox.

that is exactly what mine was doing.

recheck the connections at the back of the gearbox(reverse swith and transfer case wiring).

good luck mate.

thanks mate, checked all that seems to be a-ok - still no solution as of yet. might get him to check his battery terminals as its been relocated to theboot and may have come loose after the collision

thanks for your help

    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
