Daryl Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Well im back from Leman now,what an experience! (pictures to follow) As per my previous post,on the way there,i lost my cruise control,all my instruments on the dash,and the trip computer. I had the fuse blow (bottom row nearest the bulkhead) and that was replaced,but after an hour of driving,this blew again,and blew a few more instantly as soon as i turned on the car,cold and hot. My air con is also not working,no fan or anything. Does this sound like a relay problem,or something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zugara Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 You have a dead short somewhere, you will need to follow the electrical schematics and trace out the problem from there. Sorry not alot of help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Sorry I couldn't be more help at the time.... Hope you get it sorted, probably have to get to somewhere with some diagnostic equipment to find out what it is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zugara Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 have you had the head unit out? if so you could have trapped the ac loom module, and now its chaffed through giving you the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These things can happen anytime huh and usually at the most inconvenient! I was on the A2 last week in my Leon and the engine warning light came on, had to limp home with no turbo, felt like my 210hp had lost about 209 It's been fine since but getting it checked out next Monday, unless it conks out again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl Posted June 13, 2011 Author Share Posted June 13, 2011 No not touched the HU. The mechanic who serviced the car the other week says he disconnected the battery,as he had to move the alternator to get my AMS pulley on,but thats it. Could this be related to the ABS,ESP and TC light coming on the other day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 Well iv just taken out the relay from under the battery cover,and it has made no difference when i turn the car on. Its the one marked Rev Lamp relay. Iv just looked in the owners manual,and it says that if the Slip light,ESP and ABS come on while driving,it would indicate an open circuit. Could this coming on the other day,be a warning to the relay failing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zugara Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 You have a short or broken wire somewhere.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 Well i took the relay out this morning,and drove the 30miles to work with no other issues. Iv had a guy in electronics have a look at it,and he seemed to think its buggered. So replacing the relay,and hoping that solves the issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl Posted June 16, 2011 Author Share Posted June 16, 2011 Well iv replaced the relay,which is what i thought was causing the issue,but that has had no effect. It still blew the fuse the moment i turned the ignition on. This could be expensive! Has anyone got any ideas as to where to start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZMANALEX Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Best to pull the codes Daryl if there are any stored:thumbs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beau Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Your next step would probably be to run some sort of diagnostics check, which means taking it into nissan, and see if they pick up any faults. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
