Hey Guys,

Started getting weird problems with my v35. Turned the car on today and it would automatically go into the auto aircon mode.

Pressing any button will not respond, aircon and stock headunit. Anyone seen this happen before?

The other day the stock bose headunit was playing up where it would turn itself off and on again, then the aircon thing would happen. But it would eventually turn off again and go back to normal.

I haven't done anything to the car and it is complete stock so not sure if this is a "common" issue or not. At the moment ive disconnected the car battery to see if it somehow "resets" this issue.

Could it be a fuse problem? Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Yeah, reading teh g35driver forums. It seems to be quite a common issue. Only fix is to replace the unit or go with one of those aftermarket or oem doubledin kits. Smacking it was also a temporary fix.

I seem to have to smack it everytime i start the car now to get it to go normal.

You'd be surprise how often hitting things fix them. Alternator not charging? Give her a little tap with a hammer. Starter not cranking? Give her a decent crack with a hammer. Temporary fixes only though.

Yeah, im currently looking for the OEM JDM double din kit. Seems there is a shortage of these at the moment, no-one seems to have any in stock with no ETA on new shipments.

I want to avoid buying the aftermarket metra kits.

^^ good to know.. the prices in USA have been skyrocketing for the S2 double din and some said they have had them on backorder for months with no ETA. Good to you know can get them if I decide to go down this path.

Hey Guys,

Thought id update this in case anyone else was after the double din kit. I was able to source one from Sewell Infiniti:

Seems they only have the kit for 03-04 cars.

Cheers,

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
