Hello, i recently bought my r32 skyline gts and the climate control is not displaying anything on the screen at all. The buttons like up(when you turn the lights on), and if you press on of the buttons the air-con will work straight away.......

So the climate control display isn't working and i can't figure out what it is, i've checked the fuses......but their okay. Someone installed a cd player in the car before i bought so maybe they disconnected something????

Any ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks :cheers:

yup.. when I got mine it was like that.. had to replace the unit. They are temperamental and dodgy.. sometimes shaking it and so forth will put the contacts back down. Also someone on here redid all the soldering and it worked well.

I have the same problem, used to tap the bottom of it and it would work for half an hour or so and then turn off again, but since I put my deck underneath that's a bit tricky now. I've pulled it apart a couple of times now and the problem seems to be the contacts from the circuit board into the plug (if you pull it apart you'll see what I mean), as when I put pressure on certain areas it would work. I think I'll have to just try and bend the contacts a little to ensure that they actually connect, but I think it will be a try and see approach and could take a while. Hopefully I can do it fairly soon and if it works I'll let you know.

    • No need to drill any holes. There's plenty of access to reach through and behind all of that steel to "push" from behind with a pulling action on the slide hammer. There's all sorts of attachments you can screw on the end of them.
    • Yea the photos aren't the best. When I was pulling the bumper and headlights out there was a bodyshop guy looking on for it, there is a slight bend behind where the passenger headlight is, but we're talking a few MM and there is a little bit of a bend for the reo. That said it's supposedly well within the "Drill a hole in it and pull it out with a slide hammer to be close enough" and be on our way. The other option is to buy a GTR reo for the GTR bumper bits but this is a $2000+ fix for something Mr Hammer can probably do 99% of the job for and everything will/can line up pretty closely-to-good-enough.
    • That's a write off for sure... Part out? 😛 I kid. It looks like the rad support has a minor minor bend in it too where the rep support sits near. Could just be the photos (and me not wearing my glasses right now). Worst case is you can buy a new radiator support, have it swapped over, and leave the car in paint jail for 12 to 18 months while you build the motor to handle twin turbos or a Harrop SC...
    • It seems the definition of "Gregging" something might need to be expanded?
    • This is why I suggested that there is really nothing that can safely be done in the engine bay at this budget level. Just the work to reassure yourself that the engine won't instantly crap itself the moment the boost gets turned up will wear out the piggy bank long before the first turbo gets installed. Spend $10k and still not have any extra performance? My tip is a version of our standard advice from 15 years ago about buying a GTR, which is not to buy one unless you can afford to buy two. The new version is not to modify a GTR unless you have all the funds required to do it all at once, properly, and enough to rebuild it after it blows up.
