Its no help to you but I've just fixed a 16 flash problem.

16 flashes means lateral g-sensor. $1800 new from Nissan, $150 from SSS. Put it in, wasn't expecting it to be be fixed, but it was.

The more problems I solve with my car the more respect I have for our fantastic 1989 (although mine is a '93) car with great diagnostics and through workshop manual.

Trust the diagnostics and manual.

When do these flashes occur for diags? is it just the acc on or engine on?

Does the 4WD light flash 'x' amount of times and then start again after a small pause or something?

Mine isn't flashing, it would just be good to know. And where do you get the fault codes?

I have r33 gts4

1. i cannot find this ecu thingy in my car to find the error code (My 4wd and abs is on all the time), does workshops have these little computer thing which you can plug to your car to see what errors they have?

while wer at it, anyone got a solution to 22 flashes (oil level sensor and circuit)

Check your clutch/brake fluid level under the bonnet and your power steering level aswell - check your attesa system oil level aswell. that should fix it, if not, you need a new switch (oil sensor)

Everyone else, i found these links on a UK GTR forum...

http://www.gtr.co.uk/forum/upload/87007-4w...light=4WD+Light just to name a few !!!!

There is heaps of info on this site if you do a search.

Hope this helps

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
