as of yesterday driving to work randomly the engine light, tcs and slip lights all came on, wasn't driving fast or hard

when i got to the next set of lights, i turned the car off and then on and the engine light stayed off but the other 2 came back on

so i turned the car off and on again and they stayed off until this afternoon when i started the car at work and it happend a couple of times on the way home

when it happens i always have to turn the car off once and the engine light turns off and then again to get the TCS light and slip light to turn off

this has only happened since i did the plugs and oil on the weekend, i only picked the car up the weekend before and it didn't do that during last week

reading other threads i don't think this is unique to my car but i can't seem to get a straight answer from other threads

Mine does the exact same thing.

TCS and Slip still work, but the lights Stay on,

Turn the car on and about 2 minutes into driving they turn on.

My guess was the different sized rims/tyres is affecting the Computer with slip?

Could be many things. mine did the same a while back. replaced my coil packs & it was still doing it.

Mine was dying everytime those lights came on. annoying...

I took it to auto electricians & the codes came up as the afm. it was faulty...

Hey guys I just got my r34 GTT 2000 model, its got an exhaust, pod filter and BOV, the tcs off light is on and the slip light, constantly, the car doesn't run rough or missfire although a pop here and there randomly doesn't seem as though its backfire just a pop, what could this be? Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks.

update to this, i finally got around to looking at this on the weekend, just loosened the coil packs off and did them up again and made sure the plugs for the loom were all in properly.

the car has never run better, revs a lot nicer and more responsive no more backfiring which was horrendous after i bought the car and got better after i changed the plugs but now gone completely so something must have not been plugged in properly

that miss still happens sometimes though, so i'm going to changed my plugs to a 0.8mm plug as i changed the plugs to 1.1mm BCP6E, and i've only had this issue since i changed plugs

other than that it must be a coilpack, but it just doesn't feel like a coil pack because it doesn't happen on boost like your typical f**ked coilpack, it usually happens sometimes when i first start the car in the morning or when i'm just cruising at 60km/h and goes away generally if i give it some revs

hey guys I did the test and it came up as fault number 17 abs-tcs control unit circuit RB25DET, and in the description it says open throttle body harness? and abs-tcs control unit detects malfunction?, what could that be? what do I need to change? thanks.

    • Not R7R. Meant to type R&R, obviously enough.
    • Bugger "making it look stock". I put one conventional internally fused Hella relay behind each globe. I just pulled the plugs off the back of the globes and built new loom segments with male and female plug parts to match up to the original loom and the globe, and used the original power wires to each globe coming from the switch through the original loom plug to trigger the relays. Ran a big fat (also separately fused) power wire across the front of the car to feed all the relays. It's as ugly as f**k, but it is wedged down between the headlight and battery on the RHS and the airbox and headlight on the LHS, and no-one ever looks in my engine bay, and on the odd occasion that they do I simply give no f**ks for what they think. Fully reversible - not that you'd ever want to. For f**k's sake. It's a Skyline. They made million of the bloody things. We've been crashing them into roadside furniture for 30 years now. There is a negative side effect to putting relays on the headlights. The coil current is too little to properly clean the contacts in the switches and they get blacked up and you have to open them up every couple of years and clean them manually. I have 25 years of experience on this point.
    • I was poking through the R34 wiring diagrams vs R33 and noticed that the R34 has proper headlight relays while the R33 is like the R32 and sends full headlight power through the headlight switch. I'm not afraid of wiring but I really would like to do this in a way that looks OEM (clipping into open positions on the OEM relay box) and also unlike the factory wiring which interlocks the high beam and low beam on the halogen series 1 GTR headlights I want to make it such that turning on the high beams keeps the low beams on as well. Any advice on how to locate the specific connectors + crimp terminals + relays I need? I was thinking one NO relay for low beams and another for combined high + low running off the factory high beam headlight connector. I don't really want to splice into a crusty old probably discontinued factory harness so fully reversible is my goal here.
    • Pretty sure they run the same engine as the Q50 hybrid which specifies 95 RON.  I ran 98 in mine for a while, but it made no difference in performance or economy, so I have been using 95 for the last few years.  I have never hit 6.0L/100km, but have returned mid to high 6 on the highway.  Being a hybrid, fuel economy is a lot more dependant on how you drive it.  At 110km/h, mine never goes into EV mode on the highway, so returns closer to 7.5L/100. urban driving can return low 8s if you are careful or over 10 if you are a bit more enthusiastic on the throttle.
    • About a quarter of what you want to do. It's only R7R, not R&dismantle&replaceparts&reassemble&R. ? It is stock. I already told you, you will NOT have broken those. It's f**king 4th gear for Christ's sake. You just chipped the teeth off.
