Hey guys, im having trouble with the climate controll on my r34, even when its turned off and the fan isnt on, there seems to be alot of heat coming through around my feet mainly. Is there a common fault like the heater tap staying open just slightly????

Also if its set to 18' and no AC on it seems to have ambient temp air coming through but if its set on 19 degrees and up it seems to be on full and it defaults to the maximum fan speed. no matter what the ambient temp is the fan speed allways goes to full.

its driving me completely insane, and in summer god knows how hott in the car it will be.

is there any air speeed sensors or temp sensors that are knowen to fall out or fail?????

did i mention its running lpg injection which is great but i dont beleive it is causing the problems because the water in and out for the gas converter is b4 the heater tap............ too my knoledge that is

secondly.

i have a switch to the right of the steering wheel, it has a pic of a big fan and a little fan and you can toggle between the 2. it looks to be an oem, but has no wires going in to the back of it.

it could be one of the motors that run of the climate control has craped itself and is stuck in the hot position, my 33 did the same thing and i had to get a new motor to close the hot water tap. Just a though. Try and turn the car on listern for a noise when you change from hot to cold and see if it makes a strange sound or not and see if the heater tap in the engine bay changes position. Best of luck and remember to put up your response when you get it fixed.

Not sure if this will work for you...I had similar issues with mine last year..One day while doing an oil change I noticed just behind the front bar, there was a plug that was unattached, I found where it was supposed to go and plugged it back on...eversince, my climate control has been working fine. Go have a look and see if you can find the plug in the attached pic...if its unplugged, plug it back in...

hey, i'll have a look at that sensor 1st thing in the morning, i was playing with the car tonight.

if i set the climate control to manual all fan speeds work and zones. if i set it for 18 degress ambient air blows out. if i set it for 18.5 upwards red hot air flows out. i tryed listening for the motor or taps. were are they exactly??? are the taps in behind the dash or the engine bay????

AFTER 6 WEEKS OF DRVING AROUND WITH THE HEATER ON I FINALY FOUND THE PROBLEM............. just above your left leg is a tiny little vent were the air con sucks a tiny amount of air though. well theres a small temp sensor sposed to be wired in behind it. the wires were hanging off mine. 2 sec job to reattach and the climate control worked perfect again.

yay for me lol

      Yes. It's either "2 wires", or 1 wire, depending on how you look at it. It is the connection that ties the battery -ve to both the chassis and the engine. Every electron that goes in or out of the battery goes through those 2 small spots (on the inner guard and on the engine block). If those are not clean and tight, then shit starts to suffer. Yeah, but measure it again cold in the morning, after it has had hours to rest. You can't usefully test the charge state of a battery immediately after it has been running because the alternator puts a surface charge onto the plates that takes a while to soak in and balance out. It will always read higher, and potentially look properly healthy, when fresh off of charge. But hours later it can look a lot less healthy. It's also worth measuring the battery voltage while cranking, although this can be difficult with a typical DMM because the screem update rate is so slow on most of them. An analogue voltmeter is actually a better tool for that. If the voltage drops too far while cranking, it is a sign of a poor battery. Although I don't think we're necessarily looking for a weak battery here - just wanting to exclude it.

      https://www.facebook.com/share/15ZMn5oXtc/ Updated Event (so its not private and can be shared easier)  Attempting to coordinate a big push of Stagea's to this years GTR Festival. Great event last year and hoping for the same this year.  Discounted tickets 20% off for their various tickets until the 3rd of Feb Monday. Drags, show and shine etc.  I've emailed them to ask to set a location aside for the Stageas for the show and shine - they are happy to do so if we can get them numbers, I'm happy to keep track of that. Entering as Nismo category.  I'll be road tripping up from Melbourne, would be cool to convey if people are interested, maybe there is SAU convoys from each capital? If you have ideas about that let me know.  https://gtrfestival.com.au

      Series 2 R33 GTS25T?

      By Skip33 · Posted

      Do I have a series 2 or has someone spent money to have a series 1/1.5 look like a series 2? Everything I have read says the series 2 came out in 1996. I have a car manufactured in December 1995. The exterior, engine and interior are all series 2 other than the dash facia is series 1. Paint code is also kr4 that I believe is only available on a series 2. I have a VX Vehicle History Report and it says Grade: GTS25T TYPE M2 Manufacture date: 1995-12 Make: NISSAN Model: SKYLINE Body: E-ECR33 Grade: GTS25T TYPE M2 Engine: RB25DET Drive: 2WD Transmission: F5

      I went to Repco to get them to test the battery using their tester (not a volt meter), alternator shows 14.3v when running, and when the car was off after the it was on full load I think it was 12.6v but the guy said it was all good. Terminals are all clean, no corrosion. Though I coulda sworn when I tightened up my alternator belt the car idles a bit higher and the steering wheel shakes a bit until it's warmed up. I wanted to confirm for the earth cable/s, are you referring to the 2 wires that are bolted onto the frame rail under the battery? I might be overthinking this a bit.
