I have a R33 GTS-T and have a problem where the ABS Dash Light turns on (and remains on) around 2-3 minutes after starting the car.

Anyone know what is the cause and the solution to this issue?

leave the engine running go to the boot, on the left side under the parcel shelf lookfor a metal box with a flashing led. the led code will tell you what the error is ie 3flashes 1 second apart then a 2 second pause then 3 flashes this is error code 3 =right rear rotation sensor.

can you show a picture of this metal box with a flashing led plz.

my car is a 97 gtst with abs. this happens to me in the past .. but normally went away after another start.

when you resatrt the car ECU get king of reset or something, so you wont see the ABS light, after you driving a while it will come back up if the problem still remains. Check your barke fluid first. Have tried braking a bit hard when the lights come on? best thing to do is when the light comes on check the error code on the metal box, actually Im not sure how to do it yet. this could be due to damaged ABS sensor as well!!!

Or take it to a mchanic so he will plug the computer things to ur ECU and check for errors....will cost you $45 or something like that...I guess.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
