R34 GTT 1998, engine light code 14 speed sensor. Came out of no where. Randomly stiff and light power steering. Speedo works so if i've read correctly the speed sensor inputs cluster first and the cluster gives information to the ecu. Nissan consult on a laptop saw no speed sensor input from the ecu. Is the speed sensor bad or is there something else wrong.

Wiring diagram for the whole speed sensor to ecu?

If speedo is working then speed sensor is working. +/- 1V sawtooth (AC) signal generated by the speed sensor is translated into 0-5v square wave PWM signal at the speedo head and transmitted on the Consult bus for all the CUs to read. if the ECU can't see it then the TCU and the HCU won't be able to see it either. Would suggest that either head has a fault or the wiring is broken in some way. Look at the wiring diagrams for ANY Skyline to see how that signal typically gets around, then chase its wiring around with a multimeter. If you want to look for the signal itself, you will need an oscilloscope of some description.

speedo, traction control and hicas works, looking for a new cluster atm. When I get a new one and the ecu still doesnt see the input something else is at fault. I also checked for continuity in the wire that goes from the cluster to ecu and it was fine. Could it have gotten grounded some where and the ecu fried something in itself?

    • Thanks Duncan! Yeah it's street use for me only. Maybe occasional track day. Any difference in noise when running with the two pumps? I would expect the lift pump to be more quiet than the main pump so hopefully not? And yes, unfortunately quite a big price difference to the simple hanger setup. Though I'm usually willing to trade money for better reliability and future-proofing. Buy once, cry once and all that. I'd be very happy to never have to deal with fuel pump / wiring issues again  
    • The old manifold was quite under the GTR strut brace.  The new manifold is quite [unknown] the GTR strut brace. The GTR strut brace was needed to clear the bonnet vents. The Old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, but not the bonnet vents. The old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, and the new bonnet without vents. But I am hoping the GTR strut brace clears the new manifold :p
    • On the bright side, at least you knew that it happened and remedied before anything happened. A friend of mine just took his Fiat 124 to a shop for an oil change and they didn't tighten the oil filter housing properly. 4.5 quarts spewed out and even after refilling + tightening the cap the engine has a tick now.
    • So, more pain. The FAST manifold is a little larger than the stocker. This is problematic because there really wasn't much clearance to begin with, so going from 'barely enough' well into 'no' is sad based on the external dimensions of the thing, even though where it bolts to the head is the same. Result is the fuel rails sit a good 25mm higher, and this is a bit of an issue with the wiring that runs behind the motor, and the fuel lines, and everything else. When pushing the manifold on, it required a huge amount of force to crush wiring looms to fit it, sensors like the MAP sensor are about 1mm from the firewall, and the FPR just has to bend ABS lines to be forced into place. After some brainstorming and some sad drinking, the loom for some reason ran from the grommet behind the ABS sensor, then to the driver side head, then back to the passenger side head. So all of this was pulled back and stripped, a few wires cut and rejoined, so that the 'branch' was now on the passenger side's head as below: Before you basically couldn't see anything behind the driver head. This is much improved! The MAP sensor is now pointing up (instead of at the firewall) Brackets have been made up for the rail. The rails are for a LS1, the manifold is designed around a LS2 as it's base. Which of course has slightly different bracketry and water pump clearance, hence the mods people need to do. Should be hopefully mounted tonight. I spent money on a new FPR that is slightly more compact than my Turbosmart FPR1200. The gauge has also been moved to the rail. There's also apparently an ORB to AN Union instead of the adapter, because the ~25mm of the current adapter is going to make the difference. Provided this all goes together and arrives today, it'll be the totally not stressful attempt to start it.
