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.

    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
