M35 Stereo/climate Control Power Problems

[andynogo]

The power to the stereo and climate control has started playing up in my M35 arx. I've got the tv screen and bose stereo. When it happens, all the lights go out, no sound comes from the stereo and the air con fan remains at what is was set and and can't be adjusted.

You can hit the side of the centre console and sometimes it will power up again.

Most of the time it is on but seems to be getting more intermittent.

Has anyone experienced this- and any suggestions?

Fuse seems ok (if it's the right one- haven't got a translated fuse cover sticker yet)

Isn't that one of the signs that your CD player is stuffing up?

I may be wrong as I have an RS which doesn't have the integrated stereo.

They can be fixed, so maybe give Chris Rogers a PM?

If the AR-X fuse box is the same as the nm35 250t RS-V Four then http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...t&p=5108325 might help you identify which fuses go where

Thanks Dunc, forgot about that one.

Yes, I'll shoot Chris a PM- just a shame I'm way over west...

Thanks Chris, I'll let the boys know that you can do it. The car will be going in to have the(very) intermittent radar cruise looked at at the same time....

as a suggesstion for the cruise. disable it and stick one of mine in there. that saves the annoyance of teh 110kmh lockout and the annoyance of the thing being weird..

I had the same problem on my car for a little while.

When it happens next, move your key slightly forward in the ignition barrel (not to the cranking point) and it should all come back on.

I had it happening on big bumps and thought a plug or something was loose. Turns out its just my ignition barrell was a bit dicky and I had heaps of keys on my key ring at the time too. So the key seemed to shift a little. Would not stop the car from driving fine. Just killed the stereo/tv etc and the air con would stay on the speed it was last on. Exactly as you described. If you can I would stop the first time you try it. It just needs to move the smallest amount.

I hope that helps. I took some keys off and I did not have a problem for 6 months up to when I sold the car.

good memory Andrew.

You have reminded me that I had the same problem also. I replaced the electronic part of the barrel (furthest back part of the barrel) and it was then perfect. The part is pretty cheap from Nissan and the bigger cost is the auto sparky.

Cheers

I have am having exactly the same problem!!! Only difference is I have tried moving the keys around and have even replaced the ignition barrel switch and there is no change! The stereo doesn't work and climate control is stuck on 23 deg (it was switched off just before it cut out - it switched itself on!). Before it would cut out occasionally and switch back on immediately, but now it has been stuck off for 2 weeks. I don't think its a stereo prob, as the climate cont is also included in the prob. Any other idea's or knowledge about this anyone???

Hi has anyone had any problems in regards to a nissan 2002 stagea? My heater controls arent working anymore and the fan is blowing out air on low and i cant turn it off. Nor any power running through the climate control buttons. And my head unit doesnt go either. We did manage to put a after market head deck in before using a harness however the head deck worked but the heater controls didnt so we put the factory head unit back in and bam. Doesnt work anymore. I cant seem to find a fuse thats blown either so im pretty stuck at the moment. Ive checked wiring as well and tried putting the after market head deck back in and that too aint going anymore . Is there something im missing or a hidden fuse somewhere that i cant find. Any help is very well much appreciated.

yeah its a common problem. you need a control unit for it.
I believe chris rogers is the man for it. I got factory double din unit that fixed it from memory. was 3-4 years ago when I fixed mine.

[Katarina]

Thanks. Ive tried to msg him but it says he no longer recieves messages anymore. Damn so ill need to buy a new fascia?
