Super Hicas Help Wgnc34

[meltyface]

Hi guys,

I have an RS Four S manual rb25det with electric hicas and AWD

When plugged in to my pc I get hicas errirs on RH solenoid and LH solenoid, however with it being the electrical hicas not hydraulic, the solenoid is not where I've been told to look(near battery area under bonnet)

I've looked at FAST and can't find a reference to any hicas parts other than the ecu on left side of boot and the hicas unit its self...

HELP!

I'm not familiar with the electric hicas, but my guess is the LH and RH solenoids are probably mounted on the steering rack.

I take it you dont get any error lights staying on when you start the car? Is it possible someone has removed the dash warning light globe?

Either way, have a look at the rear steering rack and make sure there are no unconnected plugs....maybe a previous owner has disconnected it

Thanks for the reply. Yes I checked all plugs, fuses and relays (one fuse behind drivers coin draw, one fuse and one relay in engine bay fuse box by the battery) and all connectors to the steering unit at the back.Took them all out, cleaned and put back. It didn't make a difference sadly. I haven't looked on the steering rack, will do that today, thanks.

That's whats odd about it, it throws errors when plugged in, but the HICAS dash light doesn't stay on or anything. It does come on initially like all the other lights do when the ignition it turned but goes off along with the rest, so the bulb hasn't been pulled...

In that case it may be a historical error, just clear it and see if it comes back....
