Hi, Help please.

I really want my spot light to work. I did read a post regarding this topic but I still can't get it to work. I know there is a plug behind the steering column light stock, I checked, it's pluged in. I tried tracing the H4s lamp wire but can't see where it goes. Anyone knows anything other than that?

spot light?

which light are you talking about?

The light on the lower part of the head lamp. Not the fog light on the bumper. The H4 bulb. Apparrently, the steering light stalk control the spot lights, but mine just turn the markers on. But when i use my high beam, both the high and spot light will turn on.

I guess you get the 03 headlights, It seems the previous owner changed the wire and link it to the aftermarket fog light on bumper.

Please classfied, when you turn on the second switch on your steering light stalk (the one inside) what's happen?

BTW, it is usually called driving light.

I don't have any fog lights on the bumper. When i turn the switch on, only the side marker (the 5W bulb which runs from top of the head lamp to the bottom on each side) turn on. No lights.

Chris where in the passenger door you are talking? do I need to talk anything off? I don't see anything from the outlook of the door.

Flying,

I think Chris means ... Look for the purple import plate that has been riverted to the passenger side intrusion bar/door area (open the passenger side door and u can see it). :cool:

I have 4 levels of lighting on both my v35s. parker, yellow halogen driving light, xenon headlamps, then highbeam. Thats normal right?

I think all that 4 different lighting are standard on our car, but now I'm missing the yellow halogen driving light you are refering to. So mine's not normal!

Oh, I don't find any purple plate there but I found a dark red sticker under the bonnet and it wrote it was complied by IAMSHE Pty Ltd

that tells me whose sheets he used. pull the stalk off and pop the back off of it. there will be a 3 pin plug on it that snakes back into the stalk. check that it is plugged in on both ends.

Hi Chris,

Just did that, pull out everything, both ends are plug in. What other problem can it be?

    • Hey y'all! I'm curious about how y'all go about widebodying your cars. I noticed that when running a square setup, my front wheels are a bit more tucked in than my rear wheels. Not by much, maybe 5-10mm. This leads me to wonder - when I widebody, should I use narrower front flares and wider rear flares? I found a set of 40mm rear flares that I really like, and was thinking of pairing them with some 18mm front flares, but I don't want the car to look strange. How have others done this? Note, I'm in a sedan. Thanks!
    • And if it was anything other than an auto tranny part, it might be a problem. But seeing as all auto trannies belong in the recycling bin, it's fine.
    • I have an R32 Fenix rad. It is good.
    • All the schemas I can see, indicate your typical setup of ATF 'cooler' (read: heat exchanger) in the bottom radiator tank..ie; https://nissan.epc-data.com/stagea/wgnc34/5413-rb25det/engine/214/ ...but I can prattle on a bit here. These trannies have a thermistor in the sump ~ the TCU reads this and 1. bumps the line pressure up when the ATF is 'cold' and 2. prevents the TC lockup clutch from operating, until the ATF comes up to minimum operating temp (keeps the ATF 'churning' through the TC so it heats up quicker) -- trigger point is around 55C. In these conditions, the engine coolant temperature rises faster than the ATF temperature, and also helps heat the ATF up, which is why it's best to think of the in radiator tank setup as a heat exchanger ; the heat can flow in both directions... ...with these trannies, the 'hot' ATF comes out the front banjo bolt, flows through the cooler/heat exchanger, and returns to the box  via the rear banjo bolt. This gets a mention, due to the wildly different opinions wrt running auto trans fluid coolers ~ do you bypass the in radiator tank altogether, or put the cooler inline with the in radiator tank system...and then, do you put the additional cooler before of after the in radiator tank system?... ....fact is the nominal engine operating temp (roughly 75C), happens to be the ideal temperature for the ATF used in these trannies as well (no surprises there), so for the in radiator tank system to actually 'cool' the ATF, the ATF temp has to be hotter than that...lets say 100C -- you've got 25C of 'excess' heat, (slowly) pumping into the 75C coolant. This part of the equation changes drastically, when you've got 100C ATF flowing through an air cooled radiator ; you can move a lot more excess heat, faster ~ it is possible to cool the ATF 'too much' as it were...(climate matters a lot)... ...in an 'ideal' setup, what you're really trying to control here, is flash heating of the ATF, primarily produced by the TC interface. In a perfect world, wrt auto trans oil cooling, you want a dedicated trans cooler with builtin thermostatic valving - they exist. These should be run inline and before the in radiator tank system ~ when 'cold' the valving bypasses the fin stack, allowing the ATF to flow direct to the in radiator tank heat exchanger, so it works 'as intended' with helping heat the ATF up. When 'hot' (iirc it was 50C threshold), the valving shuts forcing the ATF through the cooler fin stack, and onto the in radiator tank heat exchanger...and you sort of think of it as a 'thermal conditioner' of sorts...ie; if you did cool your ATF down to 65C, the coolant will add a little heat, otherwise it works as intended... ...the 'hot' ATF coming from the front bango bolt, is instantiated from the TC when in use, so all/any flash heated oil, flows to the fluid-to-air cooler first, and because of the greater heat differential, you can get rid of this heat fast. Just how big (BTU/h) this cooler needs to be to effectively dissipate this TC flash heat, is the charm...too many variables to discuss here, but I just wanted to point out the nitty-gritty of automatic trans fluid coolers ~ they're a different beastie to what most ppl think of when considering an 'oil cooler'... /3.5cents   
    • Been a busy but productive day. Axle and hubs acquired. All fitted up after a bit of modifying. Need to sort out wider mudguards and running light reflector covers but other than that the trailer is gooood to go !!
