Mmm, nice Skyline V30.

Let's pull the dashboard apart!

All this, just to get the radio out. Sheesh.


The stereo had a CD stuck in it, and wasnt giving a fault code, just refusing to eject. I removed it, teased the CD out, and reinstalled it, hoping it would work- it didnt, but at least now it gives an error code rather than just beeping.

F0 is a sensor error- and since every single sensor in there is a tiny, crappy hall-effect sensor (rather than a proper microswitch), I'm not brave enough to try replacing them.

I actually applied power to the eject motor to get it to spit the CD out- it's all ribbon cables, but I'm handy with needle-nose probes. :-)

Ah, well, shoot. That sucks. Sounds like you have it well in hand.

(Missing you desperately this morning. 13 days.)
