RE: Infiniti sound system?

From: Bernd D. Ratsch (bernd@dodgetrucks.org)

The amp is mounted behind (and slightly above) the passenger-side kick
panel.

Most of the time it's the radio but I have had to replace the amps on a few.
Test it with the Caravan radio first before buying wny new parts for it.

Subject: DML: Infiniti sound system?

Since we're all coming out of our lurk modes I figured I'd come out of
mine...

I have a 2004 quad cab Dak with the Infiniti sound system.

Something's wrong with it, it cuts out here and there, sometimes for days at
a time where the radio won't play at all. All the connections seem ok when
I pulled it apart to check.

The consensus I've gotten from some of the folks I've talked to around here
is that the circuit board in the radio itself has gone bad, or the amplifier
for the stereo system has gone bad. Anyone had any experience with this? I
have the opportunity to get the radio out of a 2004 Dodge Grand Caravan
(doesn't have the Infiniti system) that's working fine, but although the
radio itself appears to be exactly the same radio I don't know where the
amplifier is, or if it's part of the radio etc.

Thanks!

Dave

Subject: RE:DML: Re: Overhead Consoles

Coming out of my own lurk mode, I have a related question about this: I have
the factory installed overhead console in my 2000 Dak, the one with all of
the compartments including the garage door opener compartment which would be
really sweet if I actually had a garage and a remote door opener, however I
digress. The console, instead of having the display that indicates mileage
and direction, came with some sort of clip that I don't even use. Based on
your experiences would this configuration have all the required wiring and
sensors already installed if I was to somehow manage to come up with the
display part? And would anyone here know how I could get my hands on the
display and how to install it?

Here's what I've learned about this swap:

now, bear in mind that 2004 trucks might be somewhat different since it was
the last model year for the gen III.

from what I've seen in boneyards and when I was writing service, if the
truck didn't come from the factory with the OH console, the wiring isn't
there nor are the sensors. The OH console with the trip computer relies on
several sensors that aren't there unless the OH console group was ordered
from the factory.
Now, if you just want the overhead console with the sweet compartments but
no incorrect fuel mileage or "give or take a few degrees" temperature, that
one should swap right in =)

No, the wiring is not there. The only time the wiring will be there is if
it came with the trip computer from the factory. I had the same set up as
you on my '00. I installed the trip computer from my totaled '99 into it.
I had to run all the wires from the trip computer to the correct spot under
the dash, and then I took the temp sensor from my '99 and put it on my '00.
Now everything works like factory.

Yes, the display will fit in the same area as the clip. The clip portion is
held in with like one screw. Remove the screw and the display goes right in
and is held in by the same screw.

I just looked on Ebay (I was looking for just the
display module),but all I found was a company selling
retrofit kits with wiring and everything for about
$230.00.

I'd rather buy a good used module with temp sensor for
about 50.00,and figure the wiring out for myself.

I wonder how you can get wiring from the console to
the dash without having exposed wires? Anybody know?

Thanks!

Under the headliner, down the A-pillar (have to remove the trim), into
the dash. I presume that's how it's done at the factory.

Yep, run the wires under the headliner just behind the windshield, then down
the driver's side a-pillar. Pretty easy.

Subject: DML: New 4.7L...WOW!

I'd really like to have the new 4.7 in my '01. I like
mine a lot,but the new one has almost 70 more
horsepower AND better mileage?? Anybody know what
would be involved with a swap? I assume it would bolt
up to my 45RFE,but I'm not sure about the wiring or
PCM. Please advise........

Thanks muchly!

Steve P.

Can it be fished under (or over,depending on how you
look at it) the headliner with it in place?

Thanks!

I agree.

I test drove a 2008 4x4 with the new 4.7L last week
and it was jaw dropping.

Hmmmm..........

You'll need to change the crank and cam triggers (crank trigger is on the
actual crankshaft). That's the difference in between the JTEC and NGC
4.7L's. Change over year is 2002.

Yes, you do not need to remove the headliner to route the wires. You can
tuck them under it from the front edge.

The 2008 isn't as bad as the prior model and I'm sure
it's a better overall truck than my '01,but I'd just
like to have the motor.

Yeah,you're talking over my head again Bernd. You had
me at "triggers". ;)

Are you saying it's possible to convert an old 4.7 to
the new type? I don't understand. I was meaning
swapping the whole motor.

Please enlighten...

Thanks!
