Hi everyone,

I took my car to get tinted last week, and since then, my passenger window hasnt worked.

I've pulled it apart and tested the switch with a multimetre and it seems ok, but there doesnt seem to be anything happening from either the passenger or driver door switches.

I know the guys who tinted it pretty well, so i can go back and find out what they did and if there was anything they may have forgotten to do.

If there is anything that you guys can think of that might help, im open to suggestions.

I have checked all the fuses... (They were in Japanese, so i had to check all of them :rofl: )

Thanks,

Crimpage

The passanger window won't work if the drivers side isn't pluged in properly. This is because the system runs through the drivers side so the driver has the ultimate control and can activate the safety off switch. Have you tested the safety switch to make sure it hasn't stuck on or something? But check to make sure your drivers side is connected properly. I think it is separate from the drivers window plug.

Yeah, there is only one plug that comes in for all window control to the drivers side. The funny thing is that i can control my drivers door window ok, so that should rule out the P/W lock button.

Im pulling the switch out as we speak to open it up. I know when tinting cars they actually get quite a lot of water down the inside of the doors...

Thanks

Dave

Hey,

This has been fixed now. The PW lock button got some water in it and took a few minutes of hair-dryer action to fix it up.

Turns out the PW lock only locks the passenger window, but unlike most cars, it even stops the driver from being able to open it.

      Trail braking done right, should have the rear unsettled, such that you're actually turning the car by a noticeable amount WITH the brakes, and hence noticeably less steering input.

      what is this part? behind the BS module

      No you don't. Just no more driving in the wet, and clean your window manually before you drive

      I'm not sure if they tick your boxes, but Haltech would be my pick. I'm an Adaptronic guy from way back, and Haltech acquired Adaptronic to basically get Andy, AND his IP on how he does things like fuel modelling etc.

      Misfire/stalling issues

      Just on this, as there's a huge issue in your assumption Dose.   The logic you've given, is the same logic old school NA guys give for "needing back pressure" in an exhaust. If you free up an exhaust system, and keep injecting the same fuel in etc, at the same timing, you'll typically drop power. Freeing the exhaust will often make an engine want a little bit more timing, and even sometimes a little more fuel, but then it'll make even more power.   There's many mods people do and "get no extra power" when running a comparison on the same tune. Imagine a car tuned for 91, but now we say put 98 in it, see no difference. But as we now have 98 fuel, you can run more timing, and make more power, as the 91 was knock limited.   So just be very wary in your claim of "don't retune it and do a back to back and you'll see". The correct approach would be tune the car with stock manifold, swap the manifold to aftermarket, and retune it again. But no one wants to do that, and all the results we get are "this was stock, and this is manifold changed and tuned" and people put it all down as just the tune doing it.

      Rb25det neo issue tps voltage

      Unplug ECU. Unplug TPS. Unplug boost pressure sensor. Now, all the wires, placing your ground (black) multimeter lead at the ECU end, measure resistance of the 5V line at the boost sensor plug. Then do the same to the TPS plug. Then do the same for all the other wires that relate to the TPS, or boost sensor.   All of your measurements should be very very low. You're looking to see if wiring is out of wack here.   Secondly, from memory on the R33 (not a neo motor, so I'm assuming an r34) the ground wire for the TPS and boost sensor are NOT equal to ground of the car/battery. IE, DO NOT connect ground of the sensor to the engine/body of car. You'll get a ground loop, and/or potentially screw shit up. In electronics, ground for a circuit, is not necessarily equal to ground of another circuit.   So this leads me to ask, when measuring your 5V, how are you getting 1.5V? Where are your multimeter leads touching for both the red and black lead on the multimeter?   If you're measuring power on the sensor wire, and putting ground on the car chassis or negative battery terminal, that could be all of your issues in "getting 1.5v". Electronics engineers can do some funky stuff with circuits, and when both sensors are on, it's enough laid to alter how the ECU is functioning.
