Hi lads,

Are we talking about the Lateral G sensor here?

I've got fault 16 (lateral G sensor or circuit)

Symptoms were when I got the car running it was fine, then stated to intermittently flash when going over bumps but still worked.

Now is on all the time with the ABS, any ideas? I'm going to pull it apart next weekend

You could have a faulty g sensor (under centre consule)

I had both abs and awd lights on. After fixing a ground wire (was lose by the shifting pedal) and replacing the g sensor, both lights are gone.

If I were u, I would try a good used g sensor (~$150).

Best wishes

G sensors are repairable, ive fixed a few.

Most times its one of the 2 ceramic caps has blown inside, $1 later and with the use of a soldering iron and quick re-trim the of the variable pots for voltage outputs and its good to go.

Hy 32 mates. (I'm french and english is hard for me^^)

I have the same problem. I will try to repair my g sensor before to buy a do luck system...

One of my cap is dead i think. I read all the topic, and there is just one thing that i don't understand. 

If i understand, there are 2 caps (one 10f 25v, and another 15f 25v), and you replace this 2 differents caps by 2 identics caps 10f 35v ?

Hi, I could really use some help calibrating my 33 v spec g sensor cos I can't view the photos in the original post so I don't know where to adjust and to measure the output voltages. Attached are photos of my G sensor already removed and exposed. Really hope someone can help, would really appreciate it. Thank you for your time and assistance.

    • IMG_8641.mov     She doesn’t sound the best but starts with out using any gas now. I just ran some injector cleaner through her. started roughly the first time after adding it but gave it the beans slowly upto 4k, Must have cleaned a few cobwebs out. another step in the right direction for the sub
    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
