Ok now this has me truly stumped drove my cat fo work today all is fine as normal. When I just started my car I noticed the headlights wouldn't come on then all the warning lights came on no speedo rev counter cluster lights off no display in what gear I'm in and indicators not working. Sorry no cel light but. At check, abs, 4wd and hicas are all on the abs unit make a weird winding up noise about 20 seconds after start up then stops and light comes on.

So as you can expect I'm freaking out and stumped on even where to start.

Yeah starts fine just the sytoms listed. The battery was changed a couple months ago so no probs since then. Checked fuses as good as I can in the dark I don't have a torch on me tonight so the battery fuse box is hard to read. It starts headlights take a while to come on no gear display getting error code 805 clutch position circuit or 1805 brake switch. No immobiliser so it can't be that.

Stumped :'(

I've had the christmas lights dash before plus a few other weird things. Battery.

Was your gear selector display up and running when this happens to you mate. Mine is blank can't select gear and speed taco and dead on 0

Oh, I geddit.

It's been absolutely pissing rain down in Syd.

I bet you've got water in one of your fuse boxes. Check behind the batter, and also in the bottom of the RHS drivers footwell.

Make sure all drain holes are clean and clear, and leave the covers off for a while to dry it out.

Sorry, don't remember about the gear selector as too many years ago. Even though the battery is very new, I'd get it checked/swapped simply to rule it out.

Yeah, what Alex says above. If you've parked in torrential rain that can happen.

It has been passing down last night and the few days prior to but driving today all was well.

I'll check fuses in foot well and battery compartment in the morning can't see anything at this time. It's to dark. I know about the fuse box in front of the battery in that compartment is there another further back behind the battery is there?

I think there is only one in there.

Front back side whatever, I can't remember! :D

But I think it's more likely the foot well one. The muck clogs the drain at the bottom of the guard.

Have a good look around, and report back.

There is actually two fuse boxes in the battery box. Second one is kinda behind and to the side. Wheel arch side

So no luck! Checked all fuses all are good drained the battery well it was blocked up but not up to the electrics checked footwell fuses all are good aswell. Checked battery that's goid. So guess nissan or auto electrician is next!? :-S

Searched again I'm getting error code p0805 clutch position sensor and brake switch as codes brake switch would be due to brake cut mod. Anyone know anything about clutch position sensor?

    • Oh ok that makes so much sense. Thanks for clearing it up!
    • And these modern "environmentally friendly" EV vehicles also run on the same smoke! When the engine, wiring, or batteries let it escape it also stops running!
    • Yeah - I found the same information too.. 30% open is like 85% of flow etc. So it's probably going to be minor if not completely imperceptible. I also have a larger pod filter here, will swap that on and see if there's any difference. The hardest part is finding a place to uh, test this. It's quite noticable just how much having ducting to the otherwise completely open pod cools the intake temps down. It's better boxed, or shielded but driving for 30 seconds really makes it plummet to near ambient temperatures. I recall in the past when I was a RB land and had a nice flowing airbox -  - Then I took the lid off and put a pod there, and gained 9 psi of boost and about 60kw from the restriction I didn't know I had - with the controller at same duty cycle. However finding people using over the radiator intakes having similar KPA drops at WOT on built setups makes me think there restriction could be the exhaust or potentially the headers. Either way though, there's no real estate to play with and nothing that can realistically be done about it. The original dyno plot without the airbox, and the larger pod had a better curve. It was later I added the ducting and airbox, and a smaller pod to make it fit in there...
    • That's not completely truthful now is it? Any flex fuelled factory cars also had the option to run on steam.
    • Yeah so I guess your mechanic would know turnaround better than me....but I would have thought you had access to same day or overnight rack rebuilds there....any big city here in Australia has that service.   There are a couple of o-rings and seals involved, I guess the risk is the part is specific not general. Other option is if you can have it on stands in your garage for a while, steering rack removal is pretty simple (2 mounting brackets, 2 ball joints (separate by undoing the nut to the top of the threads, put a pry bar between the steering arm and control arm to put pressure on it then medium force on the side of the ball joint or top of the nut with a hammer to break it free) and then the trickiest bit is the splines to the steering rack (not too bad to undo, one nut then it slides out, but mark it first so you can reassemble it straight)
