Another "hicas" Question...

[subie]

Hi guys,

just got my R32 gts-t (1993 model)

on the way back home, the "hicas" came on and stay on.. then I parked and off the engine. started the car again, nothing came on.. then driving on the highway for little while the light came on again and stay on till got back home.

after reading so many FAQ, I've just got confused

So, my question is...

- this light suppose to on or off?

- why this happend and what cause this light on and off?

- oh one more question, in the near future I'll change my steering wheel to an after market one. So, do I need to get special bosskit? what else do I have to do? will this effect the HICAS system?

Note: I dont track or drift my car so dont talk about some sort of HICAS lock bar type of things!

Cheers

First thing to check is the power stering fluid level.

Plenty of people remove the HICAS because it fails. So it is not always a "track" only mod.

thanks for the replied,

I'm already checked the level of fluid, it's fine

what else should I look for?

Jack the rear end up and check for play in the rear steering rack.
