hey everyone

just have a quick question..a few days ago while i was driving i realised my indicator lights when i flick them on they seem to stay on and don’t acutally indicate on and off. I’ve read a few posts on here and done a search most people seem to have a problem with the indicator light staying on when they turn the head light on.

In my case the headlights don’t affect it so it’s not a ground/shorting out problem. I listened and failed to hear that clicking noise come from under my dash.. So i pulled my relay out, before i go buy one would anyone be able to confirm with me that it is the relay that has died?

Also where would be the best place to buy/find one? i was thinking Nissan themselves?

Thanks, Ni

hey bud do u mean its not flashing or the indicator is not cancelling if its just solid(not flashing) high chance is the flasher relay should be able to get a generic one from a repco store

hey man soz as in when i flick it on, it stays on so i guess its not cancelling as it just stays on solid as if it was like parker lights when you flick the switch..

Awesome i will try repco first :yes:

Cheers

It could also mean that you have an indicator globe out. Check your side repeaters, and front and rear. Most flasher units detect the loss of current draw and either slow right down or stop flashing alltogether

I've found most will speed up the flashing due to the lack of current draw from the blown globe..

now its time to sort out your windscreen wipers haha

Haha!! yer that is next :)

agreed

Thanks again guys for the input

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
