That's due to the temp sensor for climate control. This is located behind the little slits in your centre console.

a: It may be unplugged

or

b: There's a flexible platic hose thase goes over it... this may have come off.

This is 99% chance the solution to full time heat.

Doc.

Air con doesn't go down to eighteen degrees, but on display it can go from 32 to 18. But still hot air. Took the car for a service and was told it was an electrical problem, not gas. Which required taking the whole dash out to get to the electricals. All up $300 for just diagnosing the problem, without parts or repair. WTF

Tried the self diagnosis from the manual and got these No.'s

22 = Invehicle Sensor

25 = Sunboard Sensor

36 = Mode door and Intake motor position sensors

- FRE

Removed the front panel infront of gear stick, took out the stereo and found the black tube and Incabin temperature sensor. It looked like the tube was broken off the sensor so taped it back together and made sure it was connected where the little slits on the front panel are. Still nothing. Can anyone help me, it sucks when it's a 40 degree day and your car has been in the sun and no funkin air con. Cheers

Do any of you guys know if this stuff is applicable to the r34?

It is impossible to find ANY info on the 34 :confused: I mean besides a spec sheet...

there seems to be a lot of "knowledge" for the 32 / 33 [factory and aftermarket stuff] but not mine...maybe i will have to wait a while until there are more around..?

I've now got the same 19c or above = hot problem. My odometer was replaced recently 'due to it stop working', do you think when they replaced it they might have accidentally unplugged a hose / sensor for the climate control somehow while remove the dash or how ever they got to it?

Anybody from Newcastle know the easy fix for it :wave:? Remove the dash to check the hose / sensor?

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
