Hicas Issues!

[fazzy]

Can anyone help? Hicas light comes on when i spend any more than 2-3 minutes over 110/120kmh

I will be putting a cancelling bar on soon but i am interested to know if this is a major or minor problem,

and if there is an easy fix in the meantime.Light goes out when car is shut down & restarted.Is it ok to pull

the fuse or does this cause more dramas?

Do you have 2 different tyre sizes compared to the front and rear?

I'm guessing your speedo is working correctly.

You can do a diagnostic run to check for problems, have a search for the appropriate thread.

It is almost certainly because your steering wheel is not on straight, and after HICAS thinks you have been going in circles for 3min it throws up an error code.

Do you have an aftermarket steering wheel?

Yeh,I have a non-gen wheel fitted,but its on straight...Is there a steering angle sensor or something fitted to original wheel?

Thanks for the 411 on the diagnostics for hicas, problem is boss kit.Nissans are all new to me,SAU is a great resource!!

Yeah you need a hicas style boss kit with the steering wheel, and if you do the sensors need to be on straight....you will need to search I am not sure of how to identigy the hicas boss kits

I am having exsactly the same problem. I think its cauz the previous owner bought a cheap steering wheel and got a boss kit and got some one who dosnt know what there doin to install.

Is there any problems with this?? is it going to affect driving or steering in any way?

quick fix

go to your hicas computer (under your parcel shelf) and unplug the smaller of the 2 wiring harnesses in the back of it. then find the green wire with white trace line and cut it. plug your wiring harness back in

its easier to get to from the back seat when its out compared to from the boot.

this wire sends the signal to the warning light when something hicas related has gone wrong. the light will still come on if the resevoir is low on fluid

Has anything at all been done to your hicas? I have the same problem with mine but i locked the hicas up my own way.
