Hi there,
well first of all: Thank you Eric for being so inspiring and encouraging 🙂 Thanks to you I started doing some things on my car myself, which is a ’98 Nissan Primera (better known as Infiniti G20 in the US).
I haven’t done much so far but what I did wen’t quite well, except for one occasion. Nothing blew up but it was embarrassing nevertheless 😉
I wanted to install Plasma Gauges into my combination instrument. Having watched your videos a lot in the time before I was equipped with the FSM for my car and felt like I knew what I was going to do. I had to disassemble half of my dash board as well as the combination switches. Disassembling my dash and modding the CI went fine, tests were okay and I was putting everything back together. Right before putting back the last cover I had one connector left that didn’t go anywhere yet.
Well… after a while I found that it was the connector to the buzzer that warns you when you forget to turn of your lights… I was looking for the buzzer to plug it in… I couldn’t find it… I kept searching all the places that connector could possibly reach. I’ve spent over an hour doing this before resigning in shame as it was already pretty late in the evening (around 11 or so) and concluding that for now I’d just put the cover back on and shamefully ask in my favorite Nissan forum where the goddamn buzzer would be.
Turns out the buzzer was embedded in the cover. I facepalmed pretty hard in that moment 🙂
