Hicas

[DAMQIK GTS-T]

I have a problem with my HICAS but never get the light on the dash whilst driving.

I've put the hicas in adavanced diagnoistics mode,

I get error codes 22 and 32 which both have something do do with the neutral switch,

anybody had this problem before or can point me in the right direction as to go about fixing it all the plugs into the gearbox look ok!

BTW its a 1994 R33 All Electric type HiCAS (No Hydraulics)

Thanks

Auto or Manual?

In the Manual, there is a switch, similar to a brakelamp switch, on the clutch pedal box. Check that its got the plug connected properly.

Its A Manual 5SPEED

Ill Have a look and check that switch thanks.

I have unpluged all the connectors and sprayed them with elecrical contact spray and re-connected them, run the diags again and the same codes come up as errors (22,32) anything else that could be wrong??? anyone with with any ideas? :confused:

Dude you should of bought a silver one, that's the problem.

Also you need to put a stock exhaust and 14inch rims on it, plus 80 series profile tyres. Bumpin'

22 is the steering angle sensor - have you replaced your steering wheel with an aftermarket one? If so you will need a HICAS boss kit. It's also not unheard of for the steering angle sensor to crap out either. The sensor is in your steering column.

32 is the engine speed signal not present - I don't know where the signal comes from in the R33

Dont call me DUDE

Mate it sounds like you only have a stocker when you get a HKS super Drager zorst and some 18 X 9" wheels (and a clutch) we will take heed of your comments :shake:

My car still has the stock steer wheel

How do I test it?

when in advanced diags I turn the steerwheel and the rear wheels move about an inch or so left and right.

I have a switch that connects the speed sensor (This disables the speed limiter) but I rearly use it, could this be the cause of this code? although I did reset the ecu before running the diags! which would clear this error.

The engine speed sensor couldnt be a problem as the rpm cut still works and that would be a part of the crank angle sensor circuit.

The 32 code error could be many things (I still think its the Neutral switch) as below

HICAS 1994-1999

22 Steering angle sensor not present

23 Steering angle sensor neutral or not present

32 (Auto) Inhibititor switch input not present,

(Manual) Neutral switch input not present

32 Engine speed signal not present

Can anybody correct me if Im wrong please!

Doh!

In that table I mis-typed the last 32 - should be 33.
