Electrical Problem

[shift_SRDETuser]

I have 1996 Nissan 240sx with an s14 sr20det swap in it and had the first problem electrically with it today. I went to start the car after a brief stop at the store. Well it made a funny noise up under the dash and would not crank -- would not turn over completely -- So I checked the clutch switch and it was ok. Pushed on the relays on the fuse box and one of them pushed in a little. So I let it sit for while checked all grounds in the engine bay and they looked good. So cranked it over and it started... Now I am kinda worried about what those fuses in the drivers side kick panel are and what they do? So if anyone has a list of those 4 relays on the drivers side fuse box are I would really appreciate it. They are not on the kick panel diagram and not listed on the printout?

thanks

check your fsm

It is not in the fsm. But thanks for the reply. I am thinking it has something to do with the gauge cluster since it is making a funny sound when you turn the key to the on position? Does anyone know if the gauage cluster on a s14 plays any role in the starting of the car?

One of your relay's could have taken a s*** or you popped a fuse. If you heard a funny noise then that's really possible.

I heard a funn

I heard a funny noise because the battery drained and the voltage dropped to like 9-10 volts (on the power FC commander) so when I turned it over all I heard was "Click" It had been a few days after a long trip since I have driven it-- One day it was 80 degrees then the same night it dropped to less than 50 degrees. So I am guessing that the voltage drop in the battery caused from the cold weather made the car not start. I tested it with my voltage meter and it has started up every single time. So I hope it was just a battery thing.....
