Hi, an interesting point of view, but it doesnt coincide with either the law of contracts or any of the specific consumer protection legislation applicable in each state. Where an item is sold by description there are certain terms implied into the contract for sale (no- it doesnt need to be in writing) which provide that the item will be fit for its purpose and will comply with any description. Where the item has been modified or changed in some way, the seller is obliged to disclose that fact unless the item has been inspected by the purchaser, and an inspection should have revealed the defect or modification.

I would consequently suggest that what may be seen as an acceptable practice of selling dodgy gear, or accepting payment without then delivering the goods is one that people adopt at their own risk and peril. Why, you may ask? Because you cant always assume that the purchaser at the other end of that conduct will sit back and do nothing. Whilst only some forms of conduct will offend the criminal statutes in each state, be they common law or code states- for example receiving money with no intention to supply will offend the Crimes Act and various criminal codes as conduct constituting obtaining financial advantage by deception, the conduct will expose the seller to actions for breach of contract and in tort if the defective item then fails and causes loss or damage.

In claims for breach of contract, exposure will not be limited to a refund of the consideration (price) paid, but the cost of putting the person in the same position as if the bargain had been completed and terms of the contract met, so obtaining a replacement unit , etc, irrespective of how disproportionate the cost may be to the agreed price of the contract in question, will be a legitimate component of the damages claimed..

of course if the supply is made in connection with a business then fair trading legislation may apply, and even the Trade Practices Act- interesting because these acts create statutory rights which cant be displaced and also create statutory offences which can be prosecuted.

In short, treat people as you would like to be treated yourself, or face the consequences.

hmmm... legal mumbo jumbo... if you got the time and money to take legal action by all means do it... you guys will achieve more that way as opposed to abusing each other online...

"Rooster" - i have your banking details and a few other pieces of information.

As you've dodged it seems 3 people in this thread, and another person who's contacted me via PM...

You are going to be added to the bad trader listing.

This is why there should be one For Sale section only - Admin's simply cannot police everything.

If you have a problem in future people - Contact myself or Blitz.

    • So, COM doesn't mean comms. It means common. What common itself means will depend on the type of device. For a two directional actuator (ie, one that can push and pull on the same output rod) then the common will typically just be the earth connection. There will be at least 2 other wires. If you put 12V on one of the other wires, then the actuator will push. On the other 12V wire, it will pull. Can't quite make out what is going on with the wiring of your actuator. It appears to have several wires at the actuator plug, but there only appears to be 2 wires where its loom approaches the door control module, with at least one of the others cut off. I don't know these actuators off by heart. I'd have to look at a wiring diagram for one before knowing what the wires were about, and that's despite me having to replace one in my car not all that long ago. Just not interesting enough to have dedicated memory set aside for trivia like that any more. That actuator is an aftermarket one, not the original one, which probably died and was replaced. That might require some sort of bodge job on wiring to make it work. Although nothing should justify the bodginess of the bodge job done. As to the soldering job on the door module's loom plug. Ahhahhahaha. Yes, very nasty. Again, I cant tell you what any of those wires do. You'd need to study the R34 wiring diagram (if you can find one that shows the door module). I don't think I have any. I'd have to study the R32 diagram to start to understand what mine is doing, and again, even though I've had a problem with mine for the last 25 years (where it locks the passenger door when the driver's window reaches top or bottom of travel) I'm just not interested enough to try to to work it out. So long as it's not burning down, it's fine with me. Here's the R32 GTR diagram, which, confusingly, has rear door lock actuators and window motors on it!! As you can see, unless you understand the functions of the door lock timer and the power window amplifier, you'll never be able to work out how it works just from the diagram. I don't imagine that the R34 one is any better. Hopefully an R34 aware bod can help. FWIW, the two wires that are cut and joined look like they are both power supply - so hopefully it is not fatal to join them. The 10V you measured on the cut off free end of one of them is concerning. You'd expect 12V, and it might be the reason for the bodge job joining them together.
    • Yeah, so try to post images with extensions that the internet can handle, not HEIC files which only arstyphones can handle.
    • I have two questions here, The first is regarding the harness attached to the power window and central locking control on the drivers door. I can't understand why the previous owner would join these wires together on the harness and why they did such a shit job. There was a wire with 10v hanging in the open un insulated. The OEM remote control works just fine The second is regarding the blue, green wire attached to what I believe is the lock actuator? These were running to the old immobiliser connected to the 'UNLOCK - COM' and 'LOCK - COM' wires. I imagine COM means communication and they just send a signal to the immobiliser whether the car is locked/unlocked?  IMG_9032.HEIC IMG_9037.HEIC IMG_9038.HEIC IMG_9041.HEIC
