Hi All,

I have a 2008 V36 SP (BOSE + NAVI) and the 6 buttons on both sides of the centre control dial have stopped working (TV AUX, CARWINGS etc). All A/C functions functions seem to work fine. The control dial and buttons on it still work. The DISC, FM-AM, ESC and Hazard buttons below the dial all work still.

I noticed they weren't working when the passenger mirror camera didn't come on when I hit the button, then realised it was all these buttons. I have checked the fuses I thought might be involved and found no blown ones. I figured if it was a fuse though that there would be a bunch of other functions not working in the dash.

Has anyone else had these buttons fail or even a control module for the buttons fail?

I haven't ever taken apart the dash in this so it's not from me messing with something.. no issues for the ~2 years I've had it.

Hopefully someone might have experienced and fixed this too.

Cheers

Have heard of those panels frying circuits so maybe worth a shot to try connecting another unit if you have a friend with same car or find one at a wreckers. Not hard to open either prob 5 mins job.

Thanks, don't know anyone locally with one so I figure I'll just bite the bullet and grab another one from somewhere. I need to rip it out and check the number on the back to make sure but I am thinking it could be 28395-JK05B based on some online info.

Just in case it helps someone else.. the buttons have come good... maybe there is a dry solder joint or something? It's been fine again for over a week now. I didn't even open up the dash... fingers crossed it keeps working.

    • Actually looks like a Nitrous setup now 馃槅
    • @robbo_rb180 I already have a NEO head on the shitbox 馃槑 Just needs beehive springs so I can rev it past the 8600 rpm limiter, then again pointless too, turbo is out of puff lol. Wen da gods let me win lotto eh?
    • Everyone I know with a90 supra at time attack aren't having issues with 3-5 fast laps so far and one is decent powered one too. Saw a k24 swapped 86 with a 8hp70 and big slicks and aero which had no drama's at QR and Manton Park. I've stuck a 25 row cooler in my setup with 8hp45/50 in the hopes of keeping the oil cool as I plan on some racing next year that 20-30min sessions. I've also geared my car so won't be using 7th and 8th gear too. @Dose Pipe Sutututu just needs to get that samsonas in already and have that tassie guy fit a head and rev it too 11ty thousand rpm. 
    • My embedded systems thoughts have me sitting with GTS on this. Variation between same phone hardware, should be small. However, the internal "intensity" or "volume" amount that say Google passes to the app, will be quite different, as the underlying hardware will be passing different levels for the same volume to the Google OS. Until the app creator has had each individual phone, and set benchmarks and calibrations for each, the amount of error can be quite huge.   It can even be observed by using different phones, recording the same noise, and then playing it back, they end up soon ding different. A big reason for it, is even the different types of mics used in phones have different responses, and different frequency ranges. Then you need to get into the DSP, and the variations in those, their sample rates which then effect their frequency range, and then the quality of the DSP, and what type of hardware conversion they do to for the ADC within the DSP. Oh, and let's not forget at the low level phones are designed to cutout loud sounds. It's one of the reasons they suck in really loud environments (eg concerts). The louder you yell, the more you'll get cutout too Note DSP is Digital Signal Processor ADC is the analogue to data converter. I don't have any real data on what the variation would truly be, however, chat GPT says in general, their output is typically between +/-2dB to +/-5dB of what you're really measuring. So realistically, anything from 4 to 10dB variation is possible even with the same devices.
