SR Redtop shut off in S14 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

My redtop randomly shutoff the other day in my s14. Was cruising down the street and suddenly when I went to shift (clutch depressed) the engine shut off and revved down normally (not seized). No steering assist or brake boost, just kind of died.

Now the engine will not crank. Thoughts? Ideas?

We've tried to push start it, and that didn't work. The SAFC is reading throttle position, so the ecu should be ok? Maybe?

Any help is appreciated.

you have to start with the basics.

Fuel?
Spark?

No crank, no attempt to start. Just clicks.

There could be any number of thousands of different things wrong.

Start by checking all fuses, all relays, and all grounds. Then go through every single wire. Then start looking at each components.

Yeah. Pretty much.

I would go ahead and remove that AFC and go back to stock as much as possible.

Get it running stock and then start modding one thing at a time.

Put some fuel in it, a car can't run without it
