hi

after fitting new exhaust today(3'' turbo back xforce) car started fine and idled for 15 min

we took it off hoist and was reversing it out when it stalled

after some diagnostics we discovered there was no power to fuel pump

all fuses ok

all relays ok

its got me stumped

i hot wired fuel pump,car started and was not throwing check engine ect,so i drove home

drive home was fine,no stalling ect

its now sitting in driveway

i cant seem to locate a wiring diagram anywhere on web

has the ecu cut power for a reason??

or cuold it simply be a wiring issue

can anyone shed some light ?

have i missed something obvious

or is there a known problem with wiring to fuel pump or sensors when fitting bigger exhaust

i could run a fused and relayed wire to power up on ignition to run pump,but i would rather find the fault

thanks in advance

ian

another question on sensors

the 1st sensor behind turbo is an oxygen sensor??

the second one in rear of cat is an egt sensor??

even if these were not reading correctly due to new exhaust it wouldnt shut down fuel pump,or would it??

well ive checked the ecu(in pass kick panel?) and term 18 (fuel pump power supply) has no power

i have pulled rear seat out and got to fpcm

if its faulty would that stop the ecu powering up the fuel pump?

thanks

found issue

9th fuse from bottom on rh side of fuseblock in cab kept blowing

upped it to 15 amp and power was restored to pump

dont know what fuse is cause its all in jap,but its obviously in the fuel pump circuit

had the fkin back seat out

removed and replacer fpcm

and all it was was a fuse

never trust anyone else to say "yep checked all the fuses under dash and there all ok"

even if he is a mechanic

time for beers

heaps of beers

thanks guys for all your assistance

take a photo of the jap name of the fuse. peeps on here could translate it

thats done already, have a search and you can print and paste that one over the top of your cover if u wish

thanks mate

that may explain why it cut power to fuel pump

dont spose you want to translate the rest for everyones benefit?

thanks again

    • It doesn't really answer your question...but is the head unit full android or just android auto, are you happy with how quickly it boots and responds, and do you have a link?  If we can identify good Android alternatives it will really help people stuck with Japanese screens. Did it have a separate reverse camera input so you would replace the factory one, or are you just going without now...that would be a pretty big steps back. And finally, do you have a picture of the "wire" that you can't plug in? Most likely it is some sort of aerial that is not too important eg japanese traffic or am radio or something if you haven't noticed a functionality issue
    • haha funny enough I did ask him wtf he had been up to with the electrics....but no answer
    • For a daily just run Akebono ceramic pads. That's what they're optimized for. Obviously don't try to run it on track or anything like that.
    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
