Installed my REV.EL dials tonight at my brothers house (coz he has a garage with lights)

All seemed to go well until i tried to drive home. About a minute down the road the hicas light comes on and the steering becomes very heavy.

We've got no idea wtf the problem is! The only thing we can think of is that we've unplugged something behind the centre console and not plugged it back in.

The only thing we can see is a plug similar to the hazard light and dimister switch plugs that seems to have no where to go.

Does anyone know what the prob could be?

Hicas Diagnostics returned a series of short flashes. pause, 2 long flashes. 1 short, pause. repeat. Which if am reading it right means

error code 21 - Speed sensor not hooked up.

Well i've taken the consol apart and had a look nothing seems to be amiss. The speedo still reads accuratly, and my turbo timer which is also hooked up to the consol can read the speed. So I have no idea whats wrong here? does anyone have any ideas?

Never mind, I figured it all out...problem solved. Turned out the washer on my Turbo Timer tap into the consol did not have a good connection and was screwing everything up. Anyways now that error code is logged in the HICAS Diagnostics, so it will report that code everytime I run a diagnostics... So how do I reset it? do I have reset the ECU?

    • Me coming to check the thread to see if my manual boost controller was set up correct......  
    • Ah yes but were you responsible? In the time I've had it (just before Christmas) I spun off the track twice and drove into things twice, so four separate incidents.. in two outings. Luckily I have a full OEM GTR front end to put on which is hopefully not a precursor for further, future, more expensive mistakes to come. It is some consolation that anyone who would want to buy my Altia bar would have to paint it anyway, the guards, too. (if they can get over the asymmetry). Hopefully over the weekend I will disassemble and see how badly things are bent. From what it looks like, the headlight has actually just been pushed back and bent the headlight support (which .. somehow... crushed the guard in). I guess the headlight plastic is strong stuff.
    • These things happen And I believe "we, the people, who modify stuff, and actually use it, cannot have nice things" It's just a shame that it happened so soon after paint  I still win the award for quickly destroying newly painted panels I think, as my car came back from the paint shop all nice and shiny, until about 4 hours later when the boot was destroyed by a wayward locker that was blown around by the wind.... What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, and poorer.....dooh
    • This. And also, the rotor thickness is constrained by the calipers. Cannot be much thicker, if at all. Cannot be much thinner, if at all. New rotors are....fairly cheap. Turbo calipers can still be picked up for sensible money. Arguably, the best thing is to get R32 calipers and put them on mount spacers on 324mm discs. That's about the cheapest and easiest way to get quite large brakes that are essentially bolt on. And that's despite maintaining for years that the R32 calipers are not the best choice because they seem to be more flexy and creaky than the others. If you were prepared to put up with nasty little NA sliding calipers, these will still seem like Brembos by comparison.
