R32 GT-R Electrical
The windows and gauge cluster stopped working. Happened at same time. Seems that they are not getting a signal. The back lights are working. Fuses all check out. Speedo works as it is mechanical. The windows do nothing and make no noise indicating no power. I have called a local shop but they are pretty busy at the moment and not really at the phones. I just don't have any time to really diagnose the issue nor do I have the electrical prowess. Car runs decent otherwise. Model is 1990 R32 Skyline GTR. I have electrical diagrams if needed. P.S. I have done some searching and it appears this same issue has happened to others as well. If you think you might be able to remedy this I would be glad to compensate. |

I am a wiring guru, and my skyline was all wiring issues when I go it. I also have the prints but I must ask... When and how did they stop working, did you do anything, were you working on the car at the time?

If it's not fuses, and back lighting is still working, my next guess would be a/some relay's may have gone bad.

Dude, you have to get a multimeter and download the wire diagrams. It will make trouble shooting so much more easier and take things one step at a time. Trust me, I know. I installed a solid state electrical system in my car and it was a bitch and a half to do. But you have to take one step at a time...

Looking at the FSM now and I see the power layout and it's all fed from a common fuse, but there are some points to check. Do you have a meter or a scope, to test tach signal? Or if you want come over and park skyline to skyline

I actually have an external tach which is getting signal. So it should rule some things out. I am also bringing it somewhere tomorrow to have it all looked at. I'll certainly let you know what it was.

Curious, seen this post went dead a few weeks ago, but have you worked out your electrical issue yet? If so, what was the cause? I'm just curious
