Hi

Driving on the freeway my car was slowing down her and there even with the accelerator down. I pulled off the freeway and then all of a sudden it was like i ran out of fuel and slowed till a complete stop.

When it happened the light on the dash had the battery and the oil pressure light on at the same time before the car stalled. Had a look at all the fuses first and saw this one blown as highlighted in the picture and I replaced it. The car now does not start. Tried jumping it becuase I saw the battery light come on but no luck

Im not sure what it was for so if you recognise it please let me know. Car is an R32 GTS4

thanks for that translation of the fuse box it was really helpful. It was the fuel pump fuse, it looked like it was fine but i replaced it anyway and it worked.

Thanks

No Worries. Happy to Help. :thumbsup:

It took me about 2 mins to find. SEARCH is your friend.

:cheers:

I wonder why it blew.

Some of those 15 year + fuses are funny. I put a USB adaptor into my ciggy lighter, put an ipod into it and it popped.

Replaced it, and it hasnt done it since.

Would it be safe to assume the fuses get a bit brittle over time?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
