ok was driving the other day at 2am in the morning and made a stop to check the street directory. I noticed the HICAS light came on and the the steering wheel started to flick a little to one side by itself! It stopped so I continued driving. Made another stop in a car park and once again the HICAS light comes on and the steering flicks slightly.

This time I didn't take any chances. Turned the car off then tried to start it up again - nothing! It just makes a clicking noise from the starter? and thats it. Next day went back to it and it starts fine all off a sudden after a whole heap of goes. No problems ever since.

Anyone got any suggest wtf this weird problem might be?

Have you checked the level of the power steering pump? (and the one in the boot for hicas EDIT: sorry ATTESSA )

Also have you run diagnostics?

That can be found at the above link!

Strange how the steering wheel moves by it self?

You might need the doctor to do an exorcism! :bahaha:

MEGA

Firstly (once again), the fluid reservoir in the boot is for ATTESSA (4WD).

Now, deorbit, has anyone played with the alternator recently? Make sure all the connections are firm. And check the P/S fluid.

The hicas light is usually the first to come on when theres low voltage, which may make it also sulk and go into diags, which makes the rears move. This is can be felt through the steering wheel and will twitch left and right every couple of seconds.

When you sort out your electrics, I think you'll find your hicas will be fine... As above, check your alternator and earths first...

    • Agreed, I've never seen a 260RS specific manual. As GTSBoy said it will mostly be stagea other than the engine loom https://www.hgeconsulting.com.au/stageaservicemanual.pdf
    • You'lll likely have to make do with R33 GTR for engine/tranny stuff, and Stagea for the body. I don't know that there's even been an actual diagram seen in the wild.
    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny
