Hi,
I'll really appreciate if anyone can help me in solving this issue.
The audio system in my car used to power up some times with a clicking
noise (from somewhere along the fuse box, but i don't know from which
relay), but now it does not power up at all. I took the system out and
check the power harness for the voltage, the constant 12V battery
supply to the audio system is totally dead, the ignition 12V shows 12V
when i turn the ignition on. I checked the fuses, all are OK. Can
anyone helps me in solving this issue. I bought a Haynes Service
manual but that does not cover 93 maxima SE DOHC.
To isolate the problem I took out a working audio system from my
friend's 93 dohc maxima and put that one in my car, but it doesn't
powers up, the reason seems to me is dead 12V constant battery supply
to the audio. How can i fix it, or more isolate this problem.
thanks

Any electrical problem you have I'm quite certain has nothing to do
with whether your car is DOHC or not;)
Bose in a DOHC car is the same as Bose in an OHC car.

That being said, I would check the battery connection. With most
Nissans, the +ve battery terminal has 2 wires coming from it. One is
the basic one and the other usually is either dedicated to the audio
system, or it goes to a bunch of other fuses. Your problem may lie
there.

Thanks a lot for the link, I downloaded the service manual for 94
maxima, which has the correct wiring diagram for Bose audio system in
93 maxima. I already fixed the problem.
Once again thanks for your help.
bye
