ATTESSA Error 18

[blind_elk]

I think I have a problem with the ETS in my 89 R32 GTS4. The error appears to be temperature sensitive - the warning light only generally comes on after a while, comes on sooner on warm days.

Anyone know a shop in the western suburbs (around Werribee) that knows these little buggers and how to diagnose / fix them?

TIA

Hey Greg,

I think it's the pressure sensor pump on the attessa pump.

From what I hear it's not serviceable so you have to replace with second hand or new pump assembly.

**** Update***

Looks like Frenchy has an option I would give them a call.

Well, I finally got around to getting the kit. But where does it go? Is it in that cluster that sits on top of the (rear) diff? (asked frenchy, no reply, and no instructions available)

Is that the ETS pressure switch? yes it goes above the read diff, and thumbs up for good parts but down for no/crap instructions!!! I have never tried to change the switch, you may need to drop the diff...

Thanks Duncan. Not the answer I was hoping for!

👎 for them getting back to you when you ask a question.

Well, finally got a response from Frenchy (amazingly almost immediately after I resent the original request with tracking). Looks like it is not really a DIY repair, so now need to find a mechanic, preferably Western Subs / Werribee, who can install this new pressure sensor.
