Hi all. I've got several p0488 error codes and an engine light, suggesting the EGR is buggered. Ute has subsequently gone into limp mode and some of the 4088 error codes relate to throttle position Control - range/performance problem. What's involved in replacing the EGR? Nissan have quoted a...

Thanks guys hopefully it's still something simple to fix

Update: So after disconnecting the canopy brake light completely as described in my previous post, (17/01/18) I've had no issues...Until Friday 2nd Feb. I don't know what's happened, but I'd driven to/from work and around town for a good couple weeks with no issues. I went away last weekend and...

I couldn't agree more. Its disgusting how no one gives a shit anymore. Everything is cost cutting, rip tear bust, and passing the buck with any form of responsibility when it comes to poorly done work. Even my work shirts (which are supplied by the company) are getting bad. Got 6 new shirts at...

Update: I spent a couple hours in the shed yesterday doing some tests, trying to isolate the fault. The canopy was fitted over 12 months ago, and this fault has only started the past couple months, so I'm thinking something has worn through and a wire must be shorting out somewhere. I pulled the...

Hey guys. For months now I've been having constant issues with the brake light fuse blowing. It seems worse whenever its a hot day. Basically, I've had no issues with this until I had an ARB canopy fitted last year. It has the brake light in the rear window and from what I can see it's just...

I don't recall seeing that USB icon appear on the phone. Once I've re-organised the music library on the micro SD card (as there's duplicate songs, incorrect artist names etc thanks to bloody itunes) I'll put it back into the phone and plug it in and see what happens. I'm not holding my breath...

I've tried the flash drive method before but it has its limitations. I find the folder structure is not as easy to navigate as it is with the iphone and for some reason the head unit only detects up to a certain amount of GB. For example, I had a 64 GB flash drive loaded with my entire music...

Hi guys, My STX550 has the factory Bose touch screen head unit. Up until now I've used an iphone with all my music plugged into the usb port in the console and have had no dramas, using steering wheel controls to access all my music libary, no worries. Just switched to a new Samsung Galaxy S8...

mine did the same, it was just a crook brake light globe. disables cruise because it's a safety thing because it thinks the brakes aren't working due to the crook light or something along those lines. check your bulbs.

Thanks guys. Did some wire tracing with the test light, turned out to be a dodgy join between the in line fuse and the relay pin 30. Obviously my crimp/soldering needs some more practice. Funny how you always overlook the simple things when you're finishing up a job like this at 2am. All up and...

So I had a go at wiring the light bar up last night, as per my previous diagram. Ran the cable into the cab and tested with my portable battery and a test light and it was all good. So I went ahead and finished installing the rest, high beam splice and connected to main battery back into the...

Thanks guys. So if I use switch p/n 63041BL on the narva page: http://www.narva.com.au/products/browse/heavy-duty-3 I won't need to ground it? Tony would u suggest getting positive power for the top pin (constant) from something like splicing into the positive off the cigarette lighter socket...

Hey guys, thanks for your advice. I haven't bought the switch as yet, but I've looked at the diagram posted above and Tony's advice and I've re-drawn it to see if I'm on the right track. Can you guys take a look and see if this would work? Does the switch get ground via pin 85 to 86 on the relay...

Thanks Tony, always a great help. My intention was to always remove the cheap n nasty on/off switch. That being said, what would the best way to approach it be? forgive my ignorance but I'm not quite sure how the blue wire would come into play with a 3 way rocker switch. I know it's a simple job...
