  1. Looking to buy a 47660 CD066 or 47660 CD067 ABS Assembly (Pump/Controller). Both Traynors.co.uk (N.Ireland) and ZMANALEX only have the 47600 AL700 which is no good to me unfortunately.
  2. I've watched the first season of the latest V. I like it but it's not for everyones taste. It's good if you're a fan of the original like I was, but it's not that similar. It's gotten quite good ratings overall: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1307824/ It'd be better to be able to watch a few episodes at a time if you bought it on DVD because the story moves quite slowly. So waiting week after week got a bit frustrating if you're only learning snippets of information every episode!
  3. Anyone got any ideas where this is located? From looking at a diagram in the service manual, it looks like it's in the driver footwell/under the steering wheel area and it appears to be a small box of some sort. Bear in mind, I'm not looking for the internal fuse box, but a box with relays. About to go have a look now so thought I'd pop this up now and come back to check on it if I don't have any luck finding it. This is in relation to the following thread and trouble code: C1111: ABS power relay coil open circuit viewtopic.php?f=10&t=34822&p=519574&hilit=abs+open+relay#p519574 So I'm looking for the ABS relay to see if it's damaged or fallen out or something, specifically from this relay box that I've yet to find. I could be wrong and I could be looking for the wrong thing in the wrong location. But at the moment, I'm desperate for a solution as this is preventing me from (legally) driving the car. I know someone can probably shed some light on it if they stumble upon this thread, but I'd rather not send out PM's to people unannounced. Thanks in advance.
  4. Reading this makes me ill lol... Over here (Ireland), its 1550 euro per year. That's approx 1200/1300 gbp. :/ So, be thankful!
  5. Oh hehe, excellent. I'll take any advice thrown my way at this stage! Forgot to mention in my first post but I've already tried topping up brake fluid and I've d/c the battery overnight and have tried recalibrating the TCS (roll back/forward) as well the first clean/easy fixes but to no avail. The car has a bit of a history of electrical problems so I just wanted to see what people thought before I go getting under the car again.
  6. Got the annoying ABS, SLIP, TCS Off lights on my dash for quite a while and I'm trying my best to get to the source of the problem. Got a mechanic to read the codes and it said "C1111 - ABS Pump" which seems, from doing some searches, to translate to: "C1111: ABS power relay coil open circuit". The error lights turn on (if they're not already on from a previous trip) after moving a few yards. The problem is somewhat intermittent so I thought that might eliminate the ABS Pump being shot and it might be something electrical/ground related. I'm open for correction here! Any ideas what I should start looking at first? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
  7. Don't take her into nissan, pm me your number if you got to go down that route and ill send you a better cheaper way! Sorry to hear re jobs loss...pain in the arse! Ah sound. I'll probably take you up on that if I don't get any joy out of this thing. Haven't been able to do it today and the weekend is a bit of a mess (the Italian job!) for me at the moment but I'm going to force myself to get this crap done within the next day or two!
  8. Haven't been in a position to do any tuning of any kind unfortunately. Would love to start improving things once I get all the damn problems ironed out! Got made redundant recently as well so mods are on the back burner. I think I read that thread already on 350zmotoring. I've literally scoured the internet for theories because I don't have the money to throw at replacing sensors here and there and what not. Also Nissan quoted 110e for just reading the codes and, I quote, "if it takes more than the hour to read the codes and resolve the problem, then it'll be another 110e and so on...". < That was my face when she said that. I've checked brake fluid already, it was fine (unfortunately and I even topped it up just to see but no use. :/ I'm going to do that horrible built in code reader way tomorrow I guess. Was putting it off coz it confused the @*!# out of me before. Nice one for the link!
  9. an expensive one... what do you need it for? reading codes? then Nissan has its own built in one which is pretty cool Ah crap. Well, just got a few issues that are reeeaally bugging me. But my main one is I have the infamous ABS/Slip/TCS issue (made several posts about this already) 80% of the time I use the car. It failed the NCT with a free visual retest as a result of this. Luckily, during the other 20% of the time I was around the corner from the NCT place in Lucan and I was able to pop in for one of the mechanics to come out and have a look at the car. As soon as I wheeled away from there the lights all popped back on! Mine have to bite the bullet and go into Nissan at Liffey Valley and pay 110 euro for them to read it........... This is the error I'm getting with some trial software:
  10. I know this is a bit of an old thread but... I've an ELM327 v1.2a and I can't connect to my car, which is a 2002 JDM. I tried bringing it to a mechanic I know and he used an Autoboss which threw up a u1001 error (CAN error). I think I need a JODB scanner for myself for starters.. but I'm also wondering whether that's what caused the error with his Autoboss. Anyone know of a reader that'll definitely work for a 2002 JDM?
  11. Yeah me too. I got my car NCT'd last week (Irish version of MOT) and it passed everything (including the brakes test) except the lights and the ABS warning light on a 'visual retest' basis. So it's a free retest that involves me popping into them and they'll come out and see if my lights are working (which they are coz I resolved that last night!) and the ABS error on my dash is gone. However, if I don't get it back to them before the 10th of October, I have to get the full test done again (and pay the 50 euro fee again) and the waiting list for the NCT is about 3 weeks. We're also getting penalty points in Ireland now if we're stopped by the police without a NCT certificate.. :/
  12. Thanks Darren. I tried the brake fluid level a while ago with no joy. I think I'm close to exhausting all the possible theories (there's dozens!) on the problem at this point. The idea of getting my own code reader was to sort this ABS/TCS/Slip thing out but seeing as I'm getting this CAN error, I think they may be related. Either way, I need to get the CAN thing sorted first as it'll help pinpoint the ABS/TCS/Slip issue.
  13. Brought my car to someone to read some error codes off my dash in order to get to the bottom of my "ABS/TCS/Slip Off" lights being lit on my dash. The error he got would coincide with the complete lack of communication between the car and my ELM327. The code is "U1001 - CAN Communication" and the possible reasons behind it are "Wiring". Now, this car has been absolutely plagued with wiring issues from the first day I got it nearly 2 years ago. I'm the 4th owner of a 2002 JDM. So far, the noteworthy wiring related things are: MPH/KMH Converter (UK) Fog Light (UK) Delimiter (UK) Harman Kardon iPod connector (UK) 2 Radios (UK/JP) [1 Jap radio worked which had millions of wires behind it - UK one was not powered due to last owner not being arsed] - Entire dash (every dial) dropped and car cut out. Resolved after finding some wires not fully pushed in in the wiring loom which caused alternator not to charge battery. Both the MPH/KMH converter and the (piece of sh1t) Harmon Kardon iPod thing were situated beside the wiring loom. - The alarm was giving issues early on (going off randomly without warning). Resolved after pinpointing the bonnet alarm switch had ceased, tricking the alarm into thinking the bonnet was being opened while alarm was armed. Disconnected switch and covered up wire. - Took out the Harman Kardon iPod Drive+Play thing because it, one day, decided to stay completely illuminated while the car was turned off and the keys out. (http://media.arstechnica.com/reviews/ha ... t_shot.jpg) - ABS / TCS / Slip Off lights all illuminated whilst driving normally. Not resolved to this day. - Found a pool of water in back corner of the boot which may have wet a couple wires that were connected to a battery that (I think?) is related to the rear fog lamp. Resolved after sealing some of the spoiler's screws and couple other places. - Took out the Jap radio because it was really old and awful (Jap must've swapped out the original JDM HU). Installed the much newer, better and never-connected Sony radio that was sitting in the slot below the Jap radio after I got the ISO adapters etc to install it. - Recently realised that my parking lights/side lamps were not working due to a blown fuse which happened after installing latest radio. Resolved after finding Illumination wire on radio was wired incorrectly. All those 'incidents' are in chronological order. I know that's quite a lot of info to take in so thanks if you've gotten this far! Any help or advice about what could be causing this error code would be much appreciated.
  14. Thanks for explaining that spikey! I've not been near the car for the past while so when I get a chance I will definitely get the pads replaced asap. They were low but I didn't tihnk they'd be causing an issue. Much appreciated!
  15. Hmm, tyres have not been changed recently and they're not even that old or worn. They're toyo proxy's. Reason I reset ECU was to clear the codes but they didn't clear. I'm going to get an OBDII scanner just to see, since I've any information that was useful to me anywhere. Any recommendations on the software/cable? Would be looking for a cheapish one to just find any hitches.
