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?

    • I guess when I say it's a POS I mean.. the solution and the stuff has the capacity for maybe... 1 spot. You know, as a spot cleaner. What I really *want* is the ability to do an entire car, all upholstery, all carpet, mats, all seats, door card inserts, A pillars, roof liners, etc. In one go. I get lured by all the jank that comes out and think "I'd like to be able to clean to that degree"
    • I've got one (not the car one, the domestic spot cleaner one, which is basically the same jobbie) and have driven it hard for hours and hours at a time. Grimy sofas, 6' floor rugs, etc. I'd blame your specific example rather than the whole category. I haven't used mine in the car, because.... you know, it's my car. So there is no-one else's ball sweat in the driver's seat, there's no kid food/drink spills or hand prints inside because they've never had an opportunity to put them there. You know, basic, standard Skyline rules.
    • I normally run with I think a 10mm, and definitely use the second handle you can add to a drill. They hurt when they bins up!   For the crush tube, once all subframe is clear, I'd try some stilsons and see if I can get it to start to twist.
    • Probably because they couldn't, because the use of the variable resistor to create a "signal" in the ECU is managed by the ECU's circuitry. The only way that VDO could do it would be if they made a "smart" sensor that directly created the 0-5V signal itself. And that takes us back to the beginning. Well, in that case, you could do the crude digital (ie, binary, on or off) input that I mentioned before, to at least put a marker on the trace. If you pressed the button only at a series of known integer temperatures, say every 2°C from the start of your range of interest up to whatever you can manage, and you know what temperature the first press was at, then you'd have the voltage marked for all of those temperatures. And you can have more than one shot at it too. You can set the car up to get the oil hot (bypass oil coolers, mask off the air flow to oil coolers, and/or the radiator, to get the whole engine a bit hotter, then give it a bit of curry to get some measurements up near the top of the range.   On the subject of the formula for the data you provided, I did something different to Matt's approach, and got a slightly different linear formula, being Temp = -22.45*V + 118.32. Just a curve fit from Excel using all the points, instead of just throwing it through 2 points. A little more accurate, but not drastically different. Rsquared is only 0.9955 though, which is good but not great. If you could use higher order polynomials in the thingo, then a quadratic fit gives an excellent Rsquared of 0.9994. Temp = 2.1059*V^2 - 34.13*V + 133.27. The funny thing is, though, that I'd probably trust the linear fit more for extrapolation beyond the provided data. The quadratic might get a bit squirrely. Hang on, I'll use the formulae to extend the plots.... It's really big so you can see all the lines. I might have to say that I think I really still prefer the quadratic fit. It looks like the linear fit overstates the temperature in the middle of the input range, and would pretty solidly understate what the likely shape of the real curve would say at both ends.
    • I got a hand held bisssel one and it's a piece of shit. Doesn't work for more than about 5 seconds. So much so that I nearly refuse to believe any wet dry vac actually works or has enough suction to clean the carpet of a car. I'm discouraged as all the good ones are $300+ for an unknown result. I saw MCM did a Ryobi video where they use this thing: https://www.ryobi.com.au/products/stick-vacuum-cleaners/18v-one-hptm-brushless-spot-cleaner-tool-only Anyone have any experience actually using a tool like this when not paid to showcase it?
