Anyone!! When installing a momo wheel, what position should the steering sensor be in when installing the Boss? In the standard wheel, the position is at 6.00 o'clock. If the sensor is placed at 2.00 o'clock, will it stuff up the sensor position and bring up the HICAS light?

I need help!:D

Hey i had the exact same problem

I just moved it to suit... i havent noticed any problems, everything seems to work fine.

good luck

Sorry to bring up such an old thread, but I will be installing my new wheel on the weekend and want to know all the things I should know before then...

What do you mean moved to suit? did you just move it, test drive and move to a different position until the HICAS light stopped comming on?

Cheers guys....

Hi guys!

No one seems to have replied to the top post?????

I know this is an oldy but I have installed a momo wheel with a nismo boss kit and I have the same problem. After driving the car for 10 min the Hicas light comes on. There is no change in how the car steers. Can someone PLEASE HELP!!!!!

I would liek to take the car to the track soon but feel unsafe! Is there a certain way to point the boss kit before fitting??

Thanks in advance.

On a R32 GT-R the HICAS "sensor" prongs are at about 1 and 7 o'clock. If you have the OEM steering wheel, you can align the two dots (one on the steering wheel, one on the shaft) to get the sensor prongs in the right place.

You will need a HICAS-enabled boss kit. If you boss kit forces you to move the prongs from 1 and 7 to some other configuration it is the wrong boss.

      I just looked at my camera phone settings, apparently I have "not allowed" for location  Will that stop that app?

      Can you not just turn it off on your phone if required? I remember a brief on this, well, I remember the brief, not what to actually do. LOL

      Thanks for posting, your engine bay looks tops. I'm fairly sure you posted the wrong video though, I think you were supposed to upload the one from your "private test road" where it's banging off the limiter with the gate open?

      Stagea obd II low voltage

      By MBS206 · Posted

      This is something to be careful of. I did a bit of digging on the NM35, as I spend a lot of time on near brand new cars and CANBus related stuff, which uses the same "OBD2" plug for a fair chunk of making my life easy. The NM35, does NOT support OBD2. The data pin is actually on Pin3, which is a manufacturer specific pin, and requires Consult3 to connect to the NM35. Your low voltage, is either because the NM35 doesn't have 12V to the constant power pin on the J1962 (OBD2) connector, OR, it is attempting the standard comms, (CanBus, K Line, etc) and can't see any voltage on those pins. Some people have had success accessing SOME data from the vehicle on OBD2 specification, using a module that supports KPW. My assumption, like Duncan has stated, it will likely actually be JOBD, where there is some cross over with the OBD2 and JOBD standards. Note, lots of "OBD2" dongles, do NOT support KPW, which is what you need for a lot of Japanese vehicles of this era (And even up until recent years!), EG, Subaru, Suzuki, etc.    The end of this thread is probably worth a read, as some people did find a way to get a display up in the NM35 recently, looks like someone implemented all the stuff needed to make it work. (The right protocols).
