My V35 Parkers Light's Won't Turn Off

Hey guys, I've got a really strange problem here but firstly the model of my car is a 2004 V35 250gt Sedan

I got sick of only getting 1 radio station so bought an FM Expander and installed it myself but got this issue which never was resolved. I can only get 32 degrees from anywhere between 18.5-32 and 18 dregrees at 18.. so basically a minimum and maximum temperature only. This quote looks possibly the reason, but since he is in Brisbane I can't really get much help.

]Chris Rogers GENERAL ELECTRICAL ISSUES

My Air Conditioning is stuck on 18deg and I cannot control it!!

this is a issue for those with the integrated dash only.two problems cause this:

1) there are 6 internal power supplies inside the radio. 3 of which run the front panel. Vdd - +5v Vfl - +29.5v and ACC (+12v) if ANY of these die you lose the radio and the A/C controls.

2) broken of damaged ribbon from the radio to the front panel. this is usually damaged when you (or the previous owner) pulls the radio out for some reason.

despite what you may be told this IS NOT an electrical Issue.

contact me directly if in brisbane if you have one of these or send the unit to me. this is not really a DIY fix UNLESS you have the schematics for the radio itself.

So I figured I'd also get a new headunit (and hopefully when I open the whole front up again could find the issue to the aircon) for the car, bought 2 iso harnesses for easy plug and play and installed them. I removed the Expander and Stock Headunit. The new headunit works fine but the aircon still had the same issue. I made sure that everything was plugged back in securely.

I was happy with the new headunit and can tolerate having 18 or 32 degrees but a new issue came up... My PARKER lights and lights on the dash won't turn off!

so I've removed the negative connecting to the battery and have come here in hope for some help.

Thank You

Michael

Maybe when you installed the new radio you have joined the illumination ones up to the 12v supply. Also the aircon problem might be a rubber tube that comes from the dash to the aircon. It sometimes comes out when you pull the dash out. Look for a little vent on the drivers side dash and have a look behind it to see if the hose has come off. That sucks in air to let the climate control work out the cabin temp.

Thank you for the swift reply! Will check that out in the next few hours :)

Also I've resolved the Parker Lights issue (embarrased to explain what it was) but I see that it's happened before http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/336033-parker-lights-wont-turn-off/ .lol

      100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!

      ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.

      You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.

      Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
