The other day the TCS Off and SLIP lights came on while I was driving around (about 5 minutes after start). I pulled over and had a look under the bonnet nothing seemed obviously loose, turned the car off and started it again. This time the lights did not come on so I went for a drive and made sure ABS and TCS were still working right, they seemed to be OK.

Wasn't too fussed, but hopped on the forums after checking the self-diagnostic results stored in the ECU. Got error code 23 then reset the codes and checked again to make sure I got 55, and I did.

Problem is, I'm pretty certain it was 23 as I checked and double checked (since it repeats the error code). But I have gone through the service manual (english and japanese version) and there is no DTC 23 number. Only 21 (Ignition Circuit) and 33 (Heated Oxygen Sensor Circuit) are listed in the manuals.

Maybe, I saw incorrectly and it was three long flashes instead of two but I watched it like 5 times before turning it off.

Anyway, car is an '98 R34 GT-T, 25,000 KM and I have had the coil packs replaced about 3 months ago (all 6).

Anyone ever had just the TCS and SLIP lights come one before? What was it and did you get error code 23?

Cheers.

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
