i got my 370gt coupe through a dealer. after a month,i found my fuel gauge is not measuring the fuel amount

properly,like fuel gauge display always up and down ,even the car have full fuel,it would still give me a

warning of low fuel, then i brought back to show dealer, he said he would fix it for me ,after a few weeks

process,still cant fix it, end up the whole computer system is break down***the one manage all sort of

electrical centre unit: gps ,audio not working ,disc cant play ,air-con on and off by itself and system restart

when i am driving every 5 mins***

the dealer is going to response,it is already being 3months, they still cant find the part to replace it, even

infiniti/nissan cant help at all.

anyone know where to get this part in or know any write off 370gt that i can just buy the part from there?

PLEASE HELP ME OUT GUYS

really appreciate

Have they changed the battery and checked the connections? Sounds like a voltage issue to me, unless they have introduced a fault trying to fix the sender.

The senders in the fuel tank may be dirty, you can clean these with contact cleaner, sometimes comes good. There is a float sender in both sides of the tank to measure fuel level which then goes to the BCM I think.

i don't think there is a issue with battery , as one of the 370gt importer pulg a computer from other 370gt to my car , it does work again, so pretty sure is a computer issue.?

thanks for advise.

do you know where i can get a cleaner to clean it?

Metho, ethanol or contact cleaner will work, you should have no trouble finding contact cleaner an any auto parts store. Make sure you get replacement tank Orings from Nissan.

What computer did he replace, the engine ecu or the body control module?

ok i see, thanks

getting the computer which managing the center unit ,audio,air-con etc.....

I don't know if this will be helpful at all or not but when I was mucking around with my system I found that if you remove the 4-wire ribbon which runs into the actual touch screen overlay you will lose all of the system controls. I have no idea why the touch screen controller is directly connected to the rest of the systems but I found that the AC/Radio/steering wheel controls etc would all stop working with this 4-wire ribbon disconnected.

I would be pulling the entire facia apart and checking all of the connections because it seems that the systems are all interconnected. It may just be that they mucked around behind the stereo and something is now loose. It's pretty easy to pull apart and put back together.

My understanding of it was the thing would randomly reboot.

Screen output sits on the UART lines via a controller. Never delved too deeply into it though.

    • That's not a transistor --- it's marked ZD1 which makes it a zener diode. As to what the breakdown voltage is, not enough there to divine.
    • 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
    • The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.
    • It's almost certainly the same as the one next to it.

    • South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).
