Installing a JDM digital climate control - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Ok, awhile ago on ebay I bought the climate control.  I got the dash controller, wire harness, and the climate sensor for the dashboard.

The other day on ebay I saw another one for sale, but this one had 2 sensors (one of which I have), and something called the "heater cable roller".  Do you know what the roller thing is?  Also, where is that second sensor located?

thanks

Well...I got mine on ebay and paid like $100, but...I dont know if I got everything I need.  There was a complete setup on ebay that went for $200 a week ago, item number 600394879 .

I was told you need to either do electric mods to the harness or get an SRmotor in order to get the JDM elctrics to work on a USDM car?  I want one oif those to but I guess I'll wait til an SR is under the hood!!hehe

I could be mistaken but you need the roller thing to be able to switch from hot to cold.  When you move the cold/hot lever you can hear a door opening and closing that I assume switches from heater to the outside air or vice versa.  With the electronic setup, you need to have the roller so it can move that door according to what you set your climate control at.  I also hear it's a wiring nightmare.

Did you get this from a shop or from a private seller? Were the instructions included? Did anyone tell you it would hook up to the KA wiring harness?
