New owner R32 Need help 4WD light ON

Greetings from USA.

I recently took ownership of this R32 GTR. I don't know much about this car since there are not many here. The 4wd light stays on but the ABS and Hicas goes off normally after engine start.

After some search here is what I have done:

Checked under hood and dash fuses all good

Checked the LED error and flashing code 21.

Checked the TPS(last owner installed a new unit)

Checked the TPS voltage using a scanner and shows .4v throttle closed.

Checked the fluid level in trunk. (right between min and max)

I printed out R32 manual and followed diag for code 21. Measured voltage at attesa ECU pin 47 and 48. Found .4V at connector. Flow charts says to replaced attesa ECU. Makes sense since the voltage signal is getting to the 4WD ECU but the ecu still flashes this problem then ECU defective.

I replaced the attesa ECU and still same code 21 and 4wd light on.

I ran 2 new wires from ECU to attesa ecu replacing the two tps signal wires. The 4WD light went out and torque gauge is working now.

I bleeded the system and everything seems to be good now until I found out the CEL is on now (apexi ECU lights up exhaust warning for CEL).

In the mean time since the 4wd is working some what now I started getting the relay clicking and hicas light problem so I replaced the accumator and that problem seems ok now.

I bleeded the system again and now a lot more fluid is flowing out so I think the accumator helped a lot with the pressures.

I have a apexi power fc and when the cel is on the exhaust overheat will stay on. The CEL is for water temp sensor, air temp sensor and tps.

I checked the wires again and found the black wire from the ecu needs to go to attesa, tps, ect, and air temp sensor.

So now I wires up sensors one by one while checking the 4wd light.

Everything still works fine with water temp and air temp sensor and attesa wired up, however once I wire up the tps ground wire, the 4wd light turns back on.

I rechecked the tps voltage again and it's looks good...so now stuck.,,

Also this condition is same with stock ECU and apexi ecu

Any ideas?? thanks.

I know this was so long ago but I currently have the same issue with mine and was told to change the ecu tps from 10% to 90% instead of 0% to 100%. Doing this seemed to work for others I'm going to try it on mine

      Not R7R. Meant to type R&R, obviously enough.

      R33 headlight relay conversion?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      R33 headlight relay conversion?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      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.
