Full Wiring Diagram R34 Gtr

My instrument cluster (also known as combination meter) is not working, and after trouble-shooting the issue myself for two months I've finally sent the car to a professional workshop. It seems that they need a full wiring diagram in order to get any further. I've tried searching for one on most other big Skyline boards that I know of without any luck, and of course I've also tried using Google.

I've got the Workshop Manual and Service Supplement for the R34, but there's no wiring diagram that contains the info needed in there. Sources on the web recommend using these two manuals in combination with the wiring diagram, so it seems there should be one out there. Any hints to where I can get my hands on one of them?

I have the R34 manual as well. It should be all contained with in that but usually all the info is not on the same page so you have to hunt around. If you can tell me exactly what it not doing ill see if i can help you out witht he page numbers.

The instruments stopped working suddenly during a run on the rolling road.

Symptoms as follows:

- Water Temp, Rev Meter, Speedometer, Oil Pressure Gauge and Fuel Gauge are not working, all needles stay at the bottom when ignition is turned/engine is started.

- Combination Meter lighting and lights for high beam, turning indicators and fog light are working.

- If I understood the manual correctly, the MFD get its information via the combination meter. On the MFD, the Water Temp gauge is flashing red and showing a constant 130° C, the Boost Gauge is constantly showing -0.760 kg/cm2 while all the others are working fine.

- The alternator is not charging.

- The Apexi ECU shows some of these values (visible by using the Commander), for example Water Temp and Revs.

What we've checked:

- All fuses have been checked over, and over, and over again. No faulty fuses.

- I've replaced the Nismo combination meter with my standard one twice. No differences.

- I've checked all connectors behind the combination meter, no loose ends or anything.

- Water Temp Sensor is working properly.

- I found a group of torn wires under the car, right next to the middle axle that runs from the transfer case to the front diff. I worked them out and reconnected them all, carefully matching all the colors, and checking and re-checking that I got it right.

- No other torn wires or loose cable ends that wasn't there before the instrumentation stopped working.

It seems that the professionals can get no further than I have without a proper full wiring diagram. I've got the following:

R34 Service Supplement, 18.3 MB (18,775 kB)

R34 Workshop Manual, 12.6 MB (12,966 kB)

Apparently none of them contains that particular wiring diagram that the workshop is looking for.

Many thanks for yor help!

Well that is a fun one. Im guessing that the work shop are looking for a diagram that shows all the wiring and its location on the body.

Ok give me a day to have a look would be better if i could access the car but unless your are willing to pay for my flights (yay freee holiday :) ) its a bit hard.

Those torn wires would be the gear box speed sensor etc.

Ill get back to you asap

Hi Alex,

I have Circuit Diagrams on disk (PDF Format) for the Combination Meter as well as Triple Meter.

It's all contained in my R34 Workshop Manual on disk.

I hope that's what you're after...

Perhaps I can send the Disk to Sweden for you eh?

I was in Stockholm in '04. Should've waved. hehe

Regards,

Terry :banana:

Alex,

Is there any chance you could send me a copy of the supp. via email.

So far the only thing the service manual indicates is that it could be the meter controll unit which is a part of the combo meter, so thats not it. I am going to have a look in FAST tonight for connectors in the loom that could have disconnected but we will see what happens.

ok i have been having a look at the info i have. I can not find a complete wiring diagram so that makes it hard.

I am worried at how you had "group of torn wires under the car", do you know how this happend (stupid question i know) Looking at the wiring looms i can not find a secondary unit that controlls the instruments. All i can think of is there are several join connectors in a loom, maybe one of these has come undone.

Sorry its not much help but ill keep having a look.

I do have a pic of the locations were the loom sit on the body if that helps.

      Will I Need A Retune After Cahanging My Catalytic Converter ?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Not noticeably. Arguably, the catless turbo is going to work harder in a different direction, as it will spool up faster, go to higher speeds more easily. Only if it was tuned in the original condition. If it was a stock tune, using the AFM before and after the cat/dump change, then no, no retune needed. If the car is running on a MAP sensor, then it might well benefit from a retune. It might even run a little dangerously without a retune, but it could quite easily be fine.

      Does 98ron contain ethanol?

      We had this blend that uses 98RON + 10% Ethanol which brought it to 100RON. It's no longer available anymore unfortunately.

      Will I Need A Retune After Cahanging My Catalytic Converter ?

      By silviaz · Posted

      Does it make a difference in your turbo having a shorter life if you have a cat converter as it causes that back pressure versus less/no back pressure with a decat? (Not sure if this is accurate) Also slightly different question if you went from a oem cat to a decat or vice versa will it require a tune? I heard if you change the dump pipe onwards it requires a tune?

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      No. Have only gotten as far as contemplating the task of having to put in the required fairly heavy wiring and fusing to run it (along with the big alternator), and preferring not to. But otherwise, it would be nice to have a little extra freedom as to exactly where the compressor is located and free up some space around the exhaust side of the engine.

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Following from this in a related by not closely-related sense... Because I was buying a bunch of other GKTech stuff, I got some rear subframe collars. The history that leads up to this is: 25+ years ago the car arrived into the country with stock subframe bushes. At some point shortly thereafter I added Whiteline pineapple rings, set up neutral, and it improved the rear end behaviour. Well, it is my vague memory that I was happier with it with them in. Less axle tramp on launches, generally better, etc etc. ~2012 it got a new non-HICAS subframe with new stock bushes. No pineapple rings. I reckon that ever since then I've been dissatisfied with the axle tramp. Recently I've been f**king around a lot with all aspects of the suspension. One contemplation has been to relocate the rear lower control arm front mount points (and do the other things needed to make that work) to improve longitudinal rear grip by getting rid of some of the stupid anti-squat that Nissan ladled into the R32. But.... before doing that I thought I'd put some collars in. And.... The collars are good. The rear sounds a little bit different, but there has been no significant increase in NVH coming up into the body. In terms of rear behaviour - expansion joints on long sweeping elevated freeway ramps that would sometimes cause the rear to jiggle around a bit, no longer seem to do so. It appears that jamming chunks of metal into the gaps in the rubber so they can't move much is a really good thing. And the launch behaviour and general forward traction situation seems to be greatly improved too. It's impossible to be really sure, because the tyres are completely shagged - they are freakishly willing to let go right now. But as an A-B test with the same tyres it certainly seems to grip up a lot better. Highly recommended to anyone who still has stock bushes.
