Nissan Terano 2.7TD 1997 - ECM Data needed. Autodata unhelpful #

Posted by Paul Howd on May 10, 2012, 8:07 pm

Year of Manufacture *: 1997
Engine Size and Code *: 2.7D (TD27ti ?)

All I am after for now is wiring and pin data.

I am needing, in particular, details concerning the needle lift sensor. (Pin data, what sort of scope signal I should be expecting, that sort of thing)

Autodata is all greyed out on this one! Can anybody help???

Paul

Hi Paul check your email. If you still want wiring diagram let me know. On my info the Needle lift sensor is built into number one Injector, if you didn't already know.

Thank you for that.

Pity the data doesnt give any signal info. But i guess the vehicle (and the corresponding workshop data) are all a bit old now and back then the manufacturers didnt expect the techs at the sharp end to be capable of using anything other than a continuity tester!

I am getting 0V on the red wire and 11V on the green one with only the merest trace of signal. and a hard fault (ie even when engine not running) for the needle sensor. I just want to be as sure as I can before stumping for a new one since they appear to be somewhat expensive!

This has obviously had a history. I am also getting a fault code for he MIL lamp so I suspect that an earlier "repair" was effected by removing the bulb!

and I am also wondering whether somebody has attempted to repair it by fitting an injector from a diferent vehicle (such as a VAG one where the sensor is a Piezo one rather than electromechanical as this one appears to be) because the original plug/socket has been cut away and the sensor wiring is connected to the main loom by means of bullet connectors!

Ill let you know what I find when I get back to it!

Cheers

Paul

Is there scope data with that?

Sadly I understand that Autovista is an on-line service and therefore Not really suitable for a mobile! I had a look at it at one of the Mechanex exhibitions Looked good!

Hi Paul

No scope data with that

Update.

The lift sensor is indeed open circuit so I will be contacting nissan after the weekend. I expect this will be painful unless anybody has a sugestion for an alternative source for a replacement injector.

The Parts guy at nissan seems unable to identify the relevent part numbers for the Injector/lift sensor!

(In part because it seems that he has no idea what I am talking about!

)

I dont suppose anybody has access to a relevent parts catalog??

Ask him for the injector for whatever cylinder it is in !!

Either cylinder 1,2 ,3 or 4

Too easy! I already tried that one.....

I suspect he might have been looking at the wrong data but the shop layout is one where all the searching is done "behind closed doors" I suspect that if I had access to his PC I would have no problem finding it!

(If he had known what a "Needle lift sensor" was he would have realised fi he was looking at the wrong data! IYSWIM)

Nine times out of ten it would be much easier for "Me" to find what I want and just give "Them" a list of part numbers! (I have done this for Years with Toyota by using an unofficial site with access to the Toyota parts cat. Saves time all round!)

I really do not understand why manufacturrs do not make parts/price data freely available! I cannot see how it could possibly be of any disadvantage to them!

I think I would be phoning a different dealer.

Hi Paul, Try Merlin Diesel Systems, They are a big outfit.We have had DENSO injectors for Nissan X Trail amongst other pumps/injectors
which were brand new and 60% cheaper than dealer.
