Some info to share after a bit of research:

The updated Nissan OEM part number for my 2007, V36 350GT is : 214934GA0A (old part number is 21493EH10A) - Circa $100 to $200 AUD dependant on brand/quality

The interchangeable part is (as seen here: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004459559212.html) : 1355A408 (Cooling Fan Control Module For Mitsubishi Lancer 02-06 ) - Circa $30-40 (AUssie stock and free delivery) example : https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/153550014872

Both these parts look identical, however I'll be purchasing the MIsubishi part number. The OEMs supplier is the same for Nissan/Infiniti/Mitsubishi - Calsonic Kansei part# 21493

 

FYI My fan controller needs changing as the fan is always on. 

Happy DIY-ing folks!

Following this as Im having the same issue at the moment. I didn't realise they were on for so long, now one of the motors squeaks as it winds down when turning the car off. I was looking at one from a 2011 wreck, but the yard is taking forever to give me a price lol.

Lol, will keep you posted mate.

If I recall right the squeaks can be solved the using a long straw nozzled spray grease , spraying straight into the fan motor.

I dont know where we are talking about or followed the thread, but if its electrical, PTFE lubricant may be better. You can get it from JayCar.

Note, WD40 is not a lubricant. It is "Water Displacement 40". It will also dissolve grease and fall away & the area will "dry up". It just happens to provide a very temporary apparent lubricant action.

 

I personally think it evil as it gives an immediate impression something is lubricated, but it will actually make it even worse in the long run. I now use the PTFE spray (tiny plastic marbles) where most would use WD40.

Thanks a lot for that info, I had no idea. Did a quick search and WD40 do a ptfe. Would this be suitable?

I dont know. I haven't really followed the thread and thus dont understand the use, I just have a knee jerk reaction to people using WD40, and had no idea WD40 did a PTFE one or ever used it. My can from JayCar has lasted me for years, and so is my first and only can. I did buy another can once for someone else who had a temp car with a very squeaky fan belt, and the WD40 he used lasted for 1 drive where as the PTFE went on working.

I originally got this stuff to also use near electricals, which reading the WD40 version, has no mention specifically at bunnings blurb. To be clear, I dont actually know which would be better. However, JayCar is cheaper, specifically meant to work near electronics (ie not conductive) AND you still get more. Also, I just notice it does explicitly suggest use in automotive cases.

And to be clear, maybe the grease still might be a better option. I know I use it for my garage Door tracks.

Hey Awsam,

 

The replacement worked perfect. Exact hardware match and works well now. No constantly ON fans. Checked when the engine was cold, with (both fans on) and without A/C (fans off) - works well. Will be confirming that the fans turn on when the engine gets hot too. Should be fine, will report back if not. 

Use this vid for detail of removal process :

Happy DIY-ing!

Fan turns on perfect! So all good

Just an update. Got that part in, plastic was brittle and one of the clips broke pretty easily. Still went together fine, and my fans are running as they should now

*update* while working on something else, I found that the bottom plug that goes to the Drivers side fan was loose. Left fan was not working. Please ensure you use extra force to push the plug in. Once secure, it will be hard to pull out.

      Just a thought, was that car and auto at any point of its life? If so, maybe whoever bridged the inhibitor switch/circuit did a not so good job.

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
