Warmed up the R35 as normal this morning, headed off at a slow pace in manual mode changing to RRR as i go. Got around the corner and was slowing at a set of lights and like bad dream, dash lights up like a christmas tree, car switches itself to auto and i get to enjoy gears 1,3,and 5...fk! TCM warnings, contact dealer.....hmmm

Crisis averted....reset ecu on cobb and car is driving like new!

Mods are willall mid pipe, 2012 inlets (included with the renew package) and cobb latest version running lc5....

I feel for you.. Literally

Edit: out of curiousity, what mods and LC version are you running?

Uh huh..gotta love 'em......

Electronics hey!

Hope not...going back over to willall next week so while it's there i'll get martin to take a look...

Makes you wonder if switching from LC2 to LC5 with the renew kit did anything bad to the tranny..

correct on the tranny map-can run any version of lc through to lc5. mine is an 09 running lc5....

Hey Docc, you can put any Cobb tranny map in yeah? Your car is a 2010 right?

    • Huh, wonder why it blew then. I never really beat on the car THAT hard lol I dailyed it and the turbo blew after 6 months
    • That's odd, it works fine here. Try loading it on a different device or browser? It's Jack Phillips JDM, a Skyline wrecker in Victoria. Not the cheapest, but I have found them helpful to find obscure parts in AU. https://jpjdm.com/shop/index.php
    • Yeah. I second all of the above. The only way to see that sort of voltage is if something is generating it as a side effect of being f**ked up. The other thing you could do would be to put a load onto that 30V terminal, something like a brakelamp globe. See if it pulls the voltage away comepletely or if some or all of it stays there while loaded. Will give you something of an idea about how much danger it could cause.
    • I would say, you've got one hell of an underlying issue there. You're saying, coils were fully unplugged, and the fuse to that circuit was unplugged, and you measured 30v? Either something is giving you some WILD EMI, and that's an induced voltage, OR something is managing to backfeed, AND that something has problems. It could be something like the ECU if it takes power from there, and also gets power from another source IF there's an internal issue in the ECU. The way to check would be pull that fuse, unplug the coils, and then probe the ECU pins. However it could be something else doing it. Additionally, if it is something wired in, and that something is pulsing, IE a PWM circuit and it's an inductive load and doesnt have proper flyback protection, that would also do it. A possibility would be if you have something like a PWM fuel pump, it might be giving flyback voltages (dangerous to stuff!). I'd put the circuit back into its "broken" state, confirm the weird voltage is back, and then one by one unplug devices until that voltage disappears. That's a quick way to find an associated device. Otherwise I'd need to look at the wiring diagrams, and then understand any electrical mods done.   But you really should not be seeing the above issue, and really, it's indicating something is failing, and possibly why the fuse blew to begin with.
