Hey fellow Stagea owners,

For some time now I have noticed my hicas light illuminated on my dash cluster, It's starting to frustrate me a bit whilst cornering fairly hard with a bit of spirited drive i notice the back end seems to skip/jump over the road. Is anyone else familiar with this issue, The back end seems to sway from side to side when going over certain bumps over the road at higher speeds from time to time also.

I believe there is a diagnostic mode for the hicas, recently have also had a wheel alignment and 4 new tyres put onto the car but the light was previously illuminated even before the new tyres and alignment.

Looking forward to your responses, Best regards Chris.

jack your car up and check under your rear diff, there is a metal case there, undo the 2 or 3 bolts, then you will see your hicas setup under there.

check if your plug is connected.

i bottomed out my ass on my stag and i broke the plug. never noticed that the metal cover had a ding in it, but i broke the plug off.

then the hicas light came on and my ass was all over the road.

so check the plug first

From time to time is decides to work for a bit but as soon as i start driving it spirited the light illuminates and as you said the ass end is all over the place, Not a safe feeling...

Will check tomorrow about the plug could be a loose connection or something
