Does anyone know right of the bet which fuse is responsible for lighting up all the gauges on the dash board ? I installed my new pioneer strereo and somehow burned a fuse ):

Also now that I have your attention I wanted to ask if any of you know where I can adjust my suspension. I was told that 97 – 98 models can adjust suspension… not sure if its true.
Thanks

If i replace the fuse, it burns as soon as I turn the lights on lmao

your stereo is not grounded properly. i had the same problem. are your tail lights out to when the fuse is blown?

roneosf

Yeah man I think so, because when I turn on/off my alarm lights dont flash. See, I connected to the ground that the old stereo was using... should I just ground it to the body ?

spitz7985

yeah you need to ground it to the body. nissan stereo harnesses are f*cked up.

roneosf

Thanks a lot dude, you just saved me a few hours of troubleshooting. I was kind of puzzled actually.

What kind of system did YOU put in and how do you like it ?

spitz7985

it's also a pioneer head. it's really nice. i like it a lot.

roneosf

You were right, I mounted ground to the cars body and the inside dash board lights are back on as well as the rear lights. But whenever I turn on or off alarm the lights still don't flash. I thik my after market alarm might have a fuse in it that is also blown... any suggestions ?

Thanks

my alarm, which was installed by the previous owner, is hack jobbed, so idk how yours is set up, but on mine theres a fuse right by the positive battery terminal. if yours isn't there, follow the wires connecting to the positve terminal and there migth be a fuse along one of them. if not, idk.

duz your whole alarm system not work or is it just the light?

roneosf

just the light, i may go check right now... <walking out of the office and going to the parking lot lol>

spitz7985

what kind of alarm do u have?
if just the light is not working, then maybe its burned out, cuz my alarm only has one fuse, and if that one fuse is blown, the whole system duzn't work.

roneosf

yeah dude it was an alarm fuse. It has 2 fuses one of which was blown. It all works now. I wired my radar detector wire under the dash and will make a custom switch for it . When I am done I could post a pic of u want. Thanks for all the help.
Later

spitz7985

sweet, i wanna wire mine up liek that too. too bad mine's a ****ty whistler. valentine one is on the horizon tho. yeah man post a pic.

was the fuse where i said it would be?

roneosf

No, alarm is picking up power from some internal wire inside, not directly from the battery. The fuses were located near the standard fuse box under the steering wheel inside its own box. Check out radio shaks in your area, they still might have this one model that is pretty good but is disscontinued its like 50 bucks. It tells you WELCOME, FASTEN YORU SEATBELTS when you turn it on, and when there is a cop it says K BAND DETECTED kinda cool .

I also want to put in some kind of lights inside, may be black lights or something, haven't decided on what exactly. The stereo I got has built in screen savers, its pretty cool. Looks facinating everytime i get high lol.

I just ordered front strut bar, dont really have the $ for major upgraids. Planning to put in hot shot headers, injen intake and high flow catalytic converter as soon as I get some $. What you got in yours ?

spitz7985

stock for now, (besides the stereo) big plans tho. i've only had the car for two monthes and i have no ****ing money (i owe the PD )

my friend's got some green neons in his del slo. they match its color, they look pretty cool. he's got them under the dash and in the vents.
