TCS & SLIP lights came on whilst i was just driving for about 1 second or 2...What does this mean? is something wrong?

BTW: The TCS was on, and i wasn't slipping just driving normally...and just for a whole second the TCS OFF and SLIP lights came on for nothing and went back off.

Anyone know wat it means?

Cheers thanks in advanced.

lol sorry just used to posting up on this link so often.

Ive just put in a GFB Blow Off Valve spring adjusted to flutter if that is related by any chance?

Yep.

No doubt your car nearly stalled due to the ATMO BOV.

Put the stock one back on will fix it.

Otherwise fork out for a ECU, and a tune to get it fixed.

One is free, one will cost you.

Last thing you want is the car to stall going around a corner, you'll end up in a tree

Never stalled yet but, will a SAFC piggy back ecu help ??

Will BOV make car run rich?

BTW: Not all lights came on like when you start up the car...Just the 2 SLIP & TCS OFF

Nah the CEL didn't come on all together...Only TCS OFF and SLIP light came on for like 1 second and went off whilst i was driving on TCS ON BUT i swear i didn't wheel slip at all and why would the TCS OFF come on as well if i did slip.

mate it might be one of those diagnostics codes, something might be up with the ECU.... I'd do a bit of research on that and see if it turns up anything... I got an atmo bov on my GTT and i have no problems at all except a bit of a flat spot, but I don't think that has anything to do with it....

Hope that helps :rofl:

Mine only does that when I'm at DECA on the skidpan, all crossed up, MASSIVE wheel spin and the computer craps itself trying to figure out what the hell you are trying to do to it :P

Like this.

my wifes 34 did the same thing. Coilpacks are probly on the way out. Get it scanned with consult and will tell you straight away. Hers did it on start up and whilst driving, 2 coil packs where stuffed.

Really? So the "TCS OFF" and "SLIP" light came on ONLY at the same time for a second or so and went off and you found out the Coilpacks were causing it?

Maybe my coils are going then?

Yeah confused the shit out of us for ages. Got it scanned with consult, came up with ignition fault. I think the lights come on as a fault code. R34's have a full body control computer the whole lot.

Any mechanic or auto sparky with a snap on scanner should be able to scan it to.

Id say you have a dodgy coil. If i was you, get a set a splitfires and chuck them in.

Bad coils wouldn't cause backfires or popping sounds from exhausts will it?

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
