Hi Guys,

Im not sure how long this has been happening, but im wagering a while. Basically i have a M80 installed with the window raisers. When i set the alarm, my car doesnt lock. I can use the key to lock the doors, but i was under the impression that R33's have central locking with the button?

Anyway, its a pain in the arse, im guessing that its just a disconected wire somewhere along the system, but i dont know much about how alarm's and central locking systems work. If anyone could give me a couple idea's of what the problem might be and how to fix it, that would be appreciated, otherwise ill get my mechanic to have a look.

Oh and i tried the search button, only found a couple threads with alarm issues, but from what i could tell, none with the same problem as mine.

Thanks,

Sounds like your drivers side lock actuator has died. I know the one for the R32 GTR is about $70 new.

Give this guy a call, he owns a R33 GTR of his own and knows them inside out (also did my alarm install on my R32).

could be NSW.

if you are handy with a meter prod the actuator with it and arm/disarm the alarm. it will be a fuse on the alarm or the actuator. I'm leaning on the actuator.

yeah im in NSW, i read on another thread that the actuator was the problem with the passenger side door. I have this problem with both sides, neither lock. Might get someone to have a look at it, better then me doing a bodgy job.

Thanks for the ideas though guys.

    • The NZ wiring kit is a 1/3 the price and will be perfectly fine for your application, I've ran one for 6+ years and many others have. Comes as a full plug into factory connector and the settings for a Link. https://www.nzwiring.com/index.php/product/trigger-kit/ Always comes back to the tuners knowledge and experience with a tuning platform. It takes years to become proficient and learning all aspects and capabilities. I've been using Links for 16 years now (rb and sr paltforms) and always learning something new with adding tables, diagnostics and data logging. Stay 98 for the usability and keep it simple so you can enjoy the car more. With experience I'll give you a current example of the industry I am in. They use Motec m190 and only use VE tuning when they have a torque mapping available and would solve the "PARITY" issues that plagues the category all because the muppet doing the tuning doesn't understand the platform or want to learn it and the product seller have no idea on its full capabilities ( I had a good laugh as when firing up an older car that just got completed and they didn't understand the injector scaling or how to change it for different fuel being used)  
    • I'm sure there are specific hygrometers for it. But if you can just throw a high enough ranged temp sensor (theromcouple that came with your DMM, for example) into a pot of it on the BBQ, you can see when it boils.
    • I have multiple bottles in a shed that gets hot, and I'm in SEQ, so it's humid. Maybe we test their theory... Anyone have a system to accurately measure moisture content in oil?
    • Yeah, that and throwing away opened, part used, closed back up bottles has got to be bullshit. Brake fluid sits in not-very-well sealed master cylinder reservoirs for literal years and keeps working (albeit we know we should flush it every couple of years - it actually still works). Anything kept in a bottle in the shed with a tightly capped lid has got to be a million times better than what has been in the car for the same length of time.
    • Wait, they're claiming UNOPENED fluid has a shelf life of only 18 months?
