mattyray Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 (edited) Hi guys Hoping someone can shed some light on this. I replaced my battery today and now i have beeping noise coming from my driver's footwell. The beeps quicken when i have the ignition on or turn the car on. I tried searching here and G35 forums with limited success. I tried holding down the buttons on the keyfob for 3-4 secs, couldnt get the horn to sound or lights to flash (had read that this can 'reset' beep noises in cabin) Have also inspected each of the fuses in the driver's footwell, all are good. Any ideas from anyone?

Yo-Yo Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 hmm sorry I can't be of more help but since nobody else has chimed in so far... I take it no warning lights on the dash suddenly lighting up with the beep? You could try resetting the ECU & see if that stops the beeping. hope you get it sorted soon Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/401146-electrical-issue-replaced-battery-driver-footwell-now-beeping/#findComment-6373474 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyray Posted May 27, 2012 Author Share Posted May 27, 2012 Thanks Yo-yo, yeah no warning lights, car seems to operate normally. Whats the easiest way to reset the ECU? I've read theres a few ways and not all of them apparently work!?

sonicii Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 ^^ does that still work?? I thought resetting the ECU by disconnecting the power was something that hasn't worked since the mid 1990s? everything is stored in flashRAM now isn't it?

GED59 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 i put a Z tube on my 2003 A/T on Saturday and the final instruction was to disconnect the negative side of the battery to reset the ECU. It worked. mattyray did it stop beeping Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/401146-electrical-issue-replaced-battery-driver-footwell-now-beeping/#findComment-6374532 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yo-Yo Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 can't say I'm familiar with v35 but can an aussie nissan service centre hook up a consult cable to troubleshoot error codes?

mattyray Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 (edited) Yeah, thats exactly what i asked for from 3 Nissan dealerships, earliest i could get in was 6th of June! Cheers for the advice anyways guys. Happy to hear from anyone else who has encountered similar issues.

Commsman Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 6th of June - they've got to be pulling your leg! Probably giving you crap service because it's an import. You could try a Repco mechanic or some other private workshop. Many of them have a comprehensive array of diagnostic devices. Heck, I could probably post you my Cipher cable to get there before then.
