So of course my stagea has to give me the shits while my other car is getting work done >.<

driving home today stopped at a light and when i took off again the car went about 10m then lost all revs so i pulled over, i have gathered its gone into limp mode and narrowed it down to a dead MAF!

The big question does anyone know where i can get a replacement in the northern suburbs melbourne? any help greatly appreciated.

I used to sell them but ran out of stock. Try the part number in Ebay, there are heaps of aftermarket ones available that won't bugger up like the Nissan ones commonly do.

I am trying to find the reason the AFM faults, it's likely caused by low voltage I suspect. Have you popped the bung out of the battery compartment by any chance? That's where I would start. The large 2 inch bung gets blocked flooding the relay box causing all sorts of issues. Not sure if the AFM is related to this as yet, but it looks like it may be, at least you will have fixed a source of many other electrically related failures.

What's your factory part number? It may well fit but they don't know so they say it doesn't to cover themselves.

Here's another one I found - does the factory number it quotes match yours?

Maybe the high voltage? I saw the voltage reach over 5v if run in height boost.

the part number on the one i linked matches but that trademe one is different. I found one on ebay just before that someone else used in an m35 so ordered it :) hopefully it works

I bought 2 from eBay but all shit! One is dead after ran 10km. another one is still alive but the voltage is not same as stock one...so I can't use it. Finally I bought genuine one from Nissan with bloody price...so far so good for about 1000km

Sorry to hear Yang, it did take me a while to find a suitable supplier for the aftermarket AFM's I used to sell. Amayama would have been a better option for genuine, but the shipping times from UAE aren't as good as the local Nissan dealership.

You are looking at the output voltage, not the input which is 12v. The AFM's have a processor inside which would likely fault if the voltage dropped too much, and the water in the battery compartment would be the obvious cause. A lot of us have had AFM's fail after or during rain too. Not saying it's definitely the cause of AFM issues, but it most certainly creates many other electrical issues. Pop that bung out before it leaves you stranded, it serves no purpose other than to keep dust out of there.

Mines been playing up and im about to grab a new one. If after genuine amayama have australian stock 22680-6n21a for $110 + postage.. if you look up the original number the price is 5x that for some reason.. the replacement number above looks to have been used by people on here with sucess by searching the forum. if in more of a rush justjap have genuine stock for a few dollars more but still cheaper than half of the ones on fleabay...

Not really, the new Nissan PN just fails constantly, some of my customers went through 7 or more before fitting my aftermarket ones. Mine were lasting fine.

The original PN works very well, 15 years nearly in my case.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
