Hicas/pwer Steering Problem

[arm85]

Hey guys, habve had this problem for a while now and after attempting to get it fixed once professionally figure its time to open it up and see if anyone knows whats going on.

A while ago started the car and the hicas light stayed on figured it must just be low on fluid so i filled it up but to no avail. Was told by a workshop that the power steering pump had a leak and this was probably the prob. paid a decent amount of money to have the pump recondidtioned but it did not fix the problem, in fact now the light comes on every time i drive the car not just now and again?

When the light is on i have no power steering either so it a real pain, any ideas? would buying a lock bar get me back my power steering? is there a seperate resevoir for hicas fluid apart from the power steering one?

The car is a r33 any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks adam

R33s are ELECTRIC HICAS, I'm pretty sure. Check all the connections for cleanliness and good contact

so where are these connections in the boot near the battery?

The unit is in the boot on the right hand side of the light.Check that it doesnt allready have a hicas electronic lock allready installed.

With these the hicas light will stay on but dissables the hicas alltogether coupled with some shims for the hicas arms to stop it from floating willie nillie.

sorry i am a bit confused u say its on the right hand side of the light ? do u mean in near the battery i can only see the a fuse box looking thing?

if it is a bad connection why would it work when the car has been sitting for mong periods but not when u start it after driving recently? any ideas
