[No Power Windows or Locks]

master switch on the drivers door, they are know for having "issues"

 

Do any of the windows work if you try to roll them down at each door? Not using the drivers master switch?

 

I tried all the switches (front and rear) and none of them work.

 

The weird thing is the clicking from the circuit breaker, it doesn't stop unless I unplug it for the fuse link near that battery.

 

Electrical is not my strong point, so I'm having a hard time with this one. Hope to get this resolved before labor day weekend.

[No Power Windows or Locks]

Any Idea's?

[No Power Windows or Locks]

So my power windows and locks don't work.

 

The relay or circuit breaker for them located below the fuse box on the driver side panel keeps clicking. So I know that it's getting power. I'm thinking I have a short somewhere. I unplugged the driver master control switch but the relay keeps clicking.

 

Any ideas where to look for the short?

 

 

[Steering Problems]

Thanks for all the input guys. Dropped it off at my buddies shop, so they could take a look at it. I will tell them to lube it up.

[Steering Problems]

So after installing my new grassroots center link, I found my steering to be very stiff feeling. When taking a turn the wheel does not return to center on it's own. It's as if the wheel is stuck leaving me to force it to center.

 

Any ideas on what could be wrong?

 

I recently got it aligned as well and it's still doing the same thing. I loosened some torque on the castle nuts for the new grade 8 bolts that pass through the idler and pitman arms. It feels much better, but still is not like it should be.

 

Not sure if this makes a difference but when I was putting the grade 8 bolts through the center link, it was a very tight fit. I had to pretty much screw in the bolts as they didn't just slide right through.

Installed my gauge pod, along with wiring up the tranny and water gauges

 

 

There is quite the gap, not sure if this is normal. Purchased from Lo-Tek, Inc http://www.gaugepods.com/nissan_t.html

 

 

 

Installed my side steps that I picked up at the junkyard.

 

[Transmission Fluid Question]

The trans temps look normal to me. The trans is designed for the fluid to be about the same as the engine coolant. Normal temps are about 180-210 F. I know that when mine is below 150, it is not happy and will not allow converter lockup to get the trans up to operating temps.

 

Thanks. Drove around the other day and was around 180-200. I think I'm just a little paranoid after hearing so many transmission horror stories.

[Transmission Fluid Question]

I'll have to check it out.

[Transmission Fluid Question]

Well here's the update.

 

Installed my 3" lift, looks great rides even better. I was testing out my tranny temp gauge and looks like I'm having some pretty high temps peaking at 220 climbing the mountain roads. Going to double check the plumbing and see if I have any bends in the lines. Not sure what else it could be.

 

[Transmission Fluid Question]

I think I'll be using that gauge temporarily. I agree the read out range is not that great. I eventually plan to fabricate my own A-pillar pods to hold around 3-4 auto meter gauges.

System Parts Installed

• B&M 70268 (11" x 7-1/4" x 3/4"): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000CIGE9G
• Derale 13091 Transmission Filter Kit: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004XONO2A
• Extra hose

Plumbing Setup

transmission out > filter in > filter out > radiator in > radiator out > B&M cooler in > B&M cooler out > transmission in

 

I have the inlet into the B&M cooler on top. Do you think that's going to be a problem?

 

We will see how the temps are when I get some fresh fluids in the system. That's only going to happen when I can figure out how to loose the exhaust bolts so I can drop the pan and replace the the filter and gasket.

 

The temp sender unit is screwed into the cap

[Transmission Fluid Question]

Thanks for the help

 

x3, those long skinny funnels...

 

Looks good! Where did you put the temp gauge?

 

Did you plumb through the radiator still and just add the cooler, or did you bypass the radiator part? I ask because that might not be large enough as a stand alone unit...

 

B

 

Still running through the stock cooler in the radiator. Need to get some 18g wire to get the gauge wired up. Hopefully I can get that done this weekend but then I got all my lift parts in today, so that might get delayed now...haha

 

 

 

 

[Transmission Fluid Question]

So the other day I put in an external transmission cooler and filter for my 95 pathy with an auto. Drained the fluid, plumbed the lines, tried to remove the transmission fluid pan but the damn exhaust cross pipe (still trying to remove the bolts).

 

Anyway, where is the refill plug for the transmission fluid?

 

Some project pix!

Installed a external tranny cooler and filter. Still need to put in the gauge.

nice pics! is that just a trail or a park? looking forward to go there before the snow melts!

 

come on guys i know theres more members here in the bay area!

 

Roads and Trails.

 

We took: Hwy 20 > Elk Mountain Rd (M1)> Bear Creek Rd (M10) > M3

Redwood City here...just got my truck earlier this month and finished up some maintenance: CV axels, t-belt, fluids. etc. Looking to meet some locals as well.

 

Here are a few pictures of my weekend adventure in the Mendocino Forest "upper lake" getting some Christmas Trees after some much needed snow. The pathy passed the test, so now it's time for more terrain.
