It's possible the modification was done to provide extra power (more than 15 A) to the power socket.

I have a 2005 350Z Enthusiast (USA non Rev Up DE). According to my US Service Manual, the clutch disk size for 2005 models depends on the transmission. The CD008 transmission uses a 250mm disk, while the CD009 uses a 240mm disk.

Glad everything works. I believe key registrations are contained in the ECU, not the BCM, and that the BCM is just a pass-through. The Service Manual isn't very clear on the subject, but it does say re-registration is required after an ECU change, but says nothing about a BCM change.

As the title says, the Condensed view of Unread Content looks just like the Expanded view. It could be my computer, but I've seen the problem on two different machines with two different browsers.

What software are you using?

P1610, Lock Mode, is a bit tricky. It means you tried to start the car 5 or more consecutive times with either a bad key or a malfunctioning BCM or ECU. Once the problem is corrected, you need to perform the following procedure to escape from the lock mode: 1. Turn ignition switch OFF. 2. Turn ignition switch ON with a registered key. (Do not start the engine.) Wait 5 seconds. 3. Return the key OFF. Wait 5 seconds. 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 twice (total of three cycles). 5. Start the engine. This procedure comes from the US Service Manual, Body, Lock and Security System section.

A bad BCM could cause your NATS problem, but pin 16 on the OBD connector goes straight to the battery through the fuse.

IPDM fuse 89 feeds power to the OBD port pin 8 through the ignition switch. This is Nissan-unique and not part of the OBD standard. Direct battery power goes to pin 16 (OBD standard) through fuse 34 on the relay box located just in front of the battery.

A standard 2.2 Ohm resistor with a 10% tolerance would have 4 color bands - red (2), red (2), gold (0.1 multiplier), and silver (10% tolerance).

That's the blinking pattern for the driver's airbag. Here in the USA all our Zs have 2-stage front airbags with a yellow connector and an orange connector. In your original post you mentioned the yellow connector. Did you miss the orange one?

When you use the key on-off procedure to place the system in the diagnosis mode, what is the flash pattern (number and length of flashes)?

Are you using a UK or USA service manual?

For what it's worth, that code is not listed in the USA Service Manuals. Did you get the code with a scan tool or by doing the pedal dance?

Great. Glad I could help.

I don't believe the pre-tensioner connector is under the seat. It connects directly to the seat belt retractor. I've attached 2 extracts from my service manual. Key areas are outlined in red. The Seat Belt Pre-Tensioner Connector.pdf file shows how the body harness connects to the retractor and, on the second page, shows the connector in more detail. The SRS Schematics.pdf file, fourth page, shows that the connectors are yellow with 2 pins each. Seat Belt Pre-Tensioner Connector.pdf SRS Schematics.pdf
