I've got a crappy problem that when I turn right or on a bumpy road the car starts fireing on 3. if I get the misses to prod the connector to the ecu it sorts itself out for a while. I've clean up the connectors and tried a differnt ecu but it still kept failing. so today I set to it with me multimeter and found that on coil pack 2 the trigger voltage (or whatever) is the problem, ie it's not there when the ecu is in a certain position. to me this says broken wire but I'm not chopping about in the loom so I decided to have a ring round and get it done with a guarentee. Every auto electrical guy in the yellow pages refused to agree to have a look all saying it as beyond them, even though I could tell them what the wire colour was and where I suspected the brake to be. so decided to bite the bullet and see what nissan would say, "yeah no probs mate, bring it in on monday and we'll sort it out for you. Shouldnt be a long job to do"
Big thanks to nissan and a big fat up your's to all the supposed autoelectrical cowards.

at least they have the balls to have ago, I called about 8 companies and they all said it was a bit to much for them, even though they were quoteing there fault finding expertise in the adds :rolleyes: Im sure with some of them it was because they knew I knew what I was on about and had actualy done the fault finding for them so they couldnt give me a silly quote for rewireing the car:mad: I would do it myself and did actualy find myself sitting there with a pair of cutters staring at the loom when a voice in the back of my head said "dont even think about it" ;)

nathan from one mancunian to another i think you should go for it, if you have such small doubt just snip it and away you go, say balls to 'em all coz it will jsut be simple that's the problem, they wont you to think it's tricky but it's not really dude.
