G Sensor Question

[megar32]

Does anyone knows if the G -Sensor on the R32 is rebuildable ?

what is wrong with it?

what is wrong with it?

It is showing RED. Initially it was WHITE but the AWD would'nt engage so, I took it out to clean the connections and in a matter of seconds after reinstalling it turned RED & has remained that way. The AWD no longer engages. Flushed the ATTESSA & installed new rotors & pads... no change.

From what I understand this is the source of my woes (Error code 13). Just need to know if they are rebuildable as I understand some units have remanufactured written on them. If it is, writeup instructions would be nice.

yeah 13 on the manual says:

"Fore-and-aft G sensor 1, fore-and-aft G sensor 2"

the manual says that if it turns red don't use it...

don't think it's rebuildable, just get a second hand green one...

if it has had an impact it'll turn red.

do you have the manual? if not PM me your email and I'll send the relevant pages for trouble shooting error 13

cheers

oops you broked it. Sorry I don't know if/how they can be rebuilt, and they are tricky to find 2nd hand

Try a new one from Nissan

$2500 lol

[doo doo]

oooh nasty. As far as i'm aware they're not rebuildable. I got mine 2nd hand here in aus for 300 AUD. You really don't want to have it mailed as they're very sensitive to knocks. Don't know if anyone would guarantee it will get to you unbroken.

If anyone has a broken sensor they're just going to throw away I'd be interested in getting hold of it to pull apart (I'll pay postage). Basically it should contain just a set of accelerometers and some electronics. Accelerometers are a very common device and i have access to a range, so if it's possible to work out the type used it might be possible to do something in the way of a repair (no promises............).
