Hi, looking in my dash as im going to swap my xanavi unit for the standard air con unit. I found some aftermarket wiring and traced it back to this. Anyone know what the white box is and what has been wired into it.

-White box found under far left of dash, just to the left when the glove box is removed.

-Black box found behind the xanavi headunit, with a few metres of blue & yellow cable taped up. (Not connected to anything).

Just curious as to what this could be as it looks aftermarket and wonder what it does. or what it is meant to be able to do

Any numbers or writing on them? The black box looks a bit like a speed cut defeat for getting rid of the 180km/hr peed limit but tbh could be anything.

Maybe the white box is what is needed for the interior light delay! What are the numbers on it?

Have a closer look at it and see if theres a brand or anything on it, I've found cables to nowhere under my passenger seat, behind my dash and also the cables and transformer for reverse sensors I don't have so there's a good chance whatever it was for has been stripped from your car, oh yeah I also have two on off switches that don't do anything haha

Also not to thread hijack but semi related, my air con unit doesn't function completely, ie if it's on 18 degrees I get coldest air, if i move it one notch to 19 I get air hotter then the fires of hell, and I also have no lights on the bottom row of buttons, could this indicate I had xanavi once and someone has done a half arse job of switching it?

White box on far left of dash is connected to your central locking, I believe its the reciever for your key.

When I installed my immobiliser we had the dash apart under the steering column trying to find a signal from a box on the passenger side.

Annoying.

Hi thanks, yer white box number is 28595 0v005 . I google searched it and found alot of japanese writing, but used google translator and found that;

The White box pictured is the Nissan Stagea keyless computer (translated)

The little black box that has been wired in only has Japanese writing on it, so not sure what it is or does yet, but it looks to be aftermarket add-on.

The black box looks like it has a button on the front from the last picture. Does it look like a card reader?

In the first picture there is something else in the back of the foot well is that connected to any of it and what is it.

Hey, The thing that looks like a protruding button is just a clip that holds it together im pretty sure. theres no card reader on it either

The thing in the footwell corner is my crossover for the speakers.

I dare say your HVAC controller is playing up. Have you checked the resistance in the globes for your buttons? Mine were fried, replaced them 6 months ago ( genuine P/N: 27545-0N002 for the short ones for the button illumination, & 27545 - 8E100 for the three long ones for the LCD illumination).

Have you tried unplugging them to see what dosen't work. Does the black box wire upto the white box it looks like it has the same colour wires out of each box. And the blue and yellow like like a switch wire. See if there is volts on 1 of them or try touching them together.

    • The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.
    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using. 
    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
