I have two questions: Are all the pins on Throttle Control Module (ABS) used up on 1991-1993 Q45's with Traction Control? I know the service manual says no (Pins 17 and 18 are unused) but I am hoping its wrong. Anyone with a glove box that is currently taken apart can confirm this. I just put mine back on after having the glove box in the trunk for 6 months. It too a while for me to remmber how to put it back together, lots of taking it apart again for missing pieces. If you connect a Nissan Consult to a 1991-1993 Q45 with TCS I don't think the TCS Control Unit will show up. But I hope its just the software that needs updating, Would be easiaer to swap in a 1994-1995 Q45 TCM.



Do Q45's with traction control outstop cars without it? Sometimes when I am on a dirt road and I depress the brake pedal too hard the slip light along with the activation of the ABS come on.

Does anyone have one of those chinese Consult adapters? If so can you tell me if all the pins are used on the board as the picture implies?

Edit: I took a gander at my service manuals and a 1994-1996 Throttle Control Module (TCM) will not fit a 1990-1993 Q45. And all that needs to be done for this to work is run two wires from the TCM to the Consult connector. But the connect that needs the wires is a HUGE PAIN IN THE... So this will have to wait till next summer. I should make a harness for my keyless entry this winter though. So many projects....
