V36 Stop/Start Button Issue

Hi Guys,

I have done some searching but cannot find anything relating to this.

I recently took the dash apart to install a Wifi Miracast device so I can see what was on my phone on my screen in the car, I got this working perfectly however upon re-connecting the battery and starting the car I can no longer just press the Stop / Start button to turn the car off like it always did in the past. I have to hold the button down 2 seconds for it to turn off.

Does anyone know why this is occurring and how to fix it?

Note also: When I press the button like I used the dash dims and goes off for a second then comes back on and the ends revs drop also and come back up like it tried to turn off.

 

PS:I'll write a article on the miracast device setup as there is no mention on here of these devices and how t set them up, there really is no need to get a new system installed to get it in english just use our phones that have everything on them GPS,Music streaming, videos etc.

Why did you take the dash apart? You've got so much room in the centre console's internals to install that device and it's so much easier to access.

Think back to what you pulled apart with your dash and retrace your steps. Go through each device one by one. If your dash lights are dimming when you press the button and whatnot, try checking your power wiring for your Miracast box. You may have derived your power mistakenly from a dash circuit that you shouldn't have, particularly your grounding if you just got it off something you thought was a negative wire but is in fact a drain wire through another device rather than direct to the vehicle's chassis.

    • You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster. 
    • Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!
    • That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect 
    • i cant get them all in 1 screenshot unfortunately as i just dont know how to move things around tbh, but they are all from the same log and the line crosses at the same point for all of them
    • It's about time I start work on my sun tan. So I knocked up a few parts that will all combine together to become my new power steering reservoir. Now just to produce an abundance of UV and IR rays while melting a heap of bits of alu to become one... Well, that's after I put one more hole in it for the return line to plumb to. It likely won't be this weekend, as Sunday I'm meant to be in doing some last minute stuff to the AMG race car, and the weekend after will be filled with non my Skyline stuff, followed by Bathurst 6 hour. So I don't expect to get to melt metal for at least 3 weeks.   I also managed to stuff up and start cutting the hole for the res to pump pipe on the wrong side of the line... It means instead of the lines being nice and tight against the inner guard, they'll be out off the guard.    The size of it means I should end up with about 1.8L of power steering fluid, and still have space for another half a litre before it reaches the overflow/breather. This is wayyyyyyy more capacity than factory, which should help keep Powersteer oil temps lower, and the design hopefully allows it to prevent any aerated oil being able to makes its way down to the bottom as it'll have a couple of baffles and some hopeful trickery to force air bubbles away from the bottom.
