in my R32, my headlight switch actually melted in the 'on' position after driving around with high beams on for a while (highway at night).... i could turn the switch back to off, but the headlights stayed on... i think it was around $30 for a new switch from the wreckers... Dunno if that would be your problem, but it could be something to look at...

oh, and it should be easy enough to do by yourself (i know mine was)

Krzysiu Its a 32 so the only stick controls high beam and blinkers,we have a dial thing we turn for our parkers and low beam.

2G U UP I'm gonna pull apart the dash suround and have a look around ,

Azzura ,hope fully i can fix it my self ,I don't have fog lights so I'm thinkin of wiring the headlights to the fog light switch and have parkers and low beam all come on at once !save $30 lol ,plus don't think wreckers are open yet and I'm sick of popping the bonnett everywhere i go feel like I'm drivin a torana with no alarm disconecting the dizzy lol.

thanks guys I 'll put up the way i fixed it in a few days (when i fix it eventually lol)

SOLVED

Aight for all interested 2 GU UP was on the right track,There is a switch in the centre console I must have bumped it on

(I took it to auto electrician took him 10 mins -what a champ didn't charge me either ,i left the car there for 2 hrs so he could have bullshitted and said he spent an hour etc)

,there is 2 switches one is for retractable spoiler pretty sure and other must be for fog lights ,which also puts parkers on.

thanx for input guys

    • Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.
    • I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want. 
    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue. 
    • Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder
    • Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
