Welcome to NICOclub! Glad to have you here in the Armada/QX56 Forum!

Yes, there are two different head units and two different sets of plugs. There it the unit with Nav, and the unit without Nav. The Factory Service Manual for the Armada will show you which wires are the VSS and the E-Brake. Here is a link to the FSM on NICOclub:

Let me know if you have any more questions!

Go to page 203 of the service manual. That wiring/terminal diagram looks just like what you took a picture of. The terminal block that you will work on is the block that has 32 wires (two rows of 16). You will be working with pin (wire) 106 and 107 according to the FSM. If you scroll down a few pages from there, you will see that 106 is being identified as the Parking Brake Signal, and 107 as the VSS.

That should help, let me know how things work out!

It is the 32 pin connector, just make sure you orient your diagram correctly so you cut the correct two wires. Make sure you leave enough wire to splice a connector back to add wire or connect the wires again someday or if you decided to add in the relays.

Glad it all worked for you. So do you have an aftermarket DVD player you are hooking to that?

Ahhh, I guess I never realized that you could get the factory DVD without getting the Navigation. Cool!

If you go the relay route (which I recommend) you can purchase the relay pack from Shane @ Tintmasters.

I'm new to moding cars. Does anyone know where I can get the wiring diagram for my car?

Peace...

Welcome to NICOclub! Thanks for visiting the Armada/QX56 Forum! Congrats on the new 370z, that is a sweet purchase! YES, the mod can be performed on your car. The only issue at this point is that the vehicle is so new that we do not have a Factory Service Manual available at this time. However, we do have the G37 Coupe, which I would be willing to bet has the same wiring harness as your 370z. Here is a link to the G37 manual:

So they only issue then would be pulling apart your dash to get to the back of the stereo to tap into the E-Brake wire and the VSS wire.

But i have done this and it works great.........

If you DO have Navigation, then you need to use Shane's relay pack or a DPDT switch in order for the Navigation to function properly.

Welcome to the Armada/QX56 Forum! Glad to have you as member of NICOclub!

You can do a modification so that you can watch the DVD on the front Nav screen, it will work while the vehicle is in park and while it is motion. You need to purchase the switch unit from TV&Nav2 Go, you can purchase this from:

http://www.tvandnav2go.com/

You will then run a regular set of Audio/Video cables from underneath your passenger seat to the center console and connect it to the proper video wires located in one of the wire connecters. It takes a little time to complete, but is well worth it, it is a great modification!

but I have no problem using the Red LED switch. It is the same switch and rating the same just different color.

anyone have any idea?

First off, welcome to the Armada / QX56 Forum, always a pleasure greeting new members of NICOclub!

If you DON'T use a switch your Navigation will barely work (it will work, but it will be extremely choppy, and not as accurate, it will have at the very least a 30 second delay).

All you have to do is get a $5 DPDT switch and you will be good to go, best $5 spent ever!

The VSS wires does NOT have to be grounded, it can float and it will still allow video.

There is no need for a relay, that is just making extra work.

All you need is a SPST switch inline with the VSS signal and to permanently ground the navi side of the parking brake wire. When you throw the switch it will kill the navi positioning (since the navi positioning isn't actually GPS based, it's VSS and electronic compass based) but as soon as you turn off the switch (and restore the VSS signal) the navi will update it (because it constantly verifies current position with GPS data when the vehicle is moving).

I have replaced all wires and tried a new switch, I am positive that i tapped the right wires. What is the matter????

What two wires are connected to the switch?

You need a SPDT switch, not a SPST. Make sense?

----------------UPDATE------------------------

I found the service manuals on the forum and it is the same for the '09 models. It worked like a champ. Probably the quickest, easiest, and most useful mod ever. Thanks guys, I'm sure this won't be the last time I pick your brains.

i currently have this relay
http://www.parts-express.com//...0-070

as well as a LED switch with 3 prongs, POWER, LOAD, and GROUND

please someone help me wire this. i need to have it up and running today

now, when wiring the switch, you need to take the dash apart, cut the speedsensor and ebrake wires (look at the illustrations from earlier in this thread). after they are cut, you will need to attach the wires as shown in my illustration below.

any questions or advice, let me know im still working on this myself!
