Please help me !!!

Been having problems with my 32 gtr stalling and idle rough, spoke to mechanic at race pace and he thought it was an afm problem and showed me how to open sensors and switch menu on the power fc controller and no.2 afm would go to 0.1v and get a big black strike through it showing fault so I purchased second hand afm's to see if it was afm or afm wiring or connection somewhere, changed over afm's car has been good for a couple of weeks no sign of problem since fitting......today stopped on the way home for coffee come back to car won't start well cranks starts then stalls straight away, finally get her going after 5 or 6 trys, and get cat overheat light on dash and power fc controller is showing no.2 afm is not working, well 0.1v instead of 1.69v while driving, I tried wiggling the plug with the car on to see if it will alter idle, which is now rough as guts and it doesn't change, the one thing I noticed with the plug though was when you push no.1 plug on you hear it snap on and lock in place, no.2 doesn't do this its like it's bent up but I pryed the clip to snap shut and lock on and wiggle it still doesn't change. So my question is wtf

Is the 02 sensor or cat the fault? And if so why does it affect only one afm, is it wiring or connection ? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Brad

Yep it highlights no.2 afm same as the first time on the power fc controller, I've got our auto elec from work is going to have a look at the first set of afm's for me, but as for the warning light that didn't happen the first time the afms played up so not sure if the same issue or not,

Could there be any other cause for the problem like faulty sensor or anything?

This problem has been haunting me for so long i just want to be able to fix it and drive my car somewhat reliably

Spoke to the guys at race pace today he said the cat overheat light is nothing to worry about there shit and they pull the sensors out or dash globes,just means the cat is hot could be some shit in there or faulty sensor but nothing to stress about and also suggested like bwrgtr swapping the afms round and just see what happens so hope to get this shit sorted

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z

    • Wanna rewrite all of that in, say, 2 or 3 separate sentences, so that we can read it?
