Hello,

Since I've owned my GTR the 4WD system has never worked.

I only recently checked the fault code reported by the ATTESSA computer, and it read:

19 - ETS motor, motor relay or circuit.

I'm still quite concerned that I never get a 4WD light on the dash.. I'm also assuming that these bulbs don't just die very easily on their own either ..? ;)

Anyone here ever had an incident with this fault code? Sounds like it's just some shitty wiring somewhere perhaps? :cool:

Globes die. You should get it lighting up just before you start the engine. If not then either it's dead, or, worse, someone removed the bulb to hide the fault.

Yeah dude, I've never seen the 4WD light before, no matter what position the key is in.

Judging by who sold it to me I would not be suprised if this was removed to hide the fault.

Could this fault code 19 be something more severe? Or is it usually spot on?

Appreciate your response by the way.

Well obviously you have something wrong with the pump, relay or circuit...

When you turn the IGN on, does the ATESSA pump run? Its like the fuel pump but runs for much longer on first start until it builds pressure.

If it doesnt, then check the fuse in the engine bay. If thats ok check that the relay in the boot is clicking when it should. I think its the LHS one under the back boot lining.

To help, look near or underneath the d/s kick panel for a small white single wire plug. When the IGN is on and that is unplugged, that will make the pump run continuously.

Check power to relay, check power to the pump. If theres power to the pump wires, the pump is gone.

Search up the net, you should be able to find a pdf of the GTR service manual, it has ATESSA troubleshooting guides.

Thank you very much Femno - Rowdyr32 has noted that he cannot hear the 4WD pump at all when you should hear it, the fuses are all good - I will test the other things you have noted.

If someone is available to assist me this weekend (as I'm new to most of this, ie. pretty usless) I can pay you for your time.

Cheers!

Hmmmm, I heard no relays clicking... I guess I will need to take it to the mechanic to check out. The rear diff is coming out anyway, so they can probably check the ATTESSA pump at the same time.

While I was in the boot (lol) I saw this, could someone kindly tell me what it is? It looks like a placer for a fuse? Except there's nothing in there and it was open as seen here:

Thanks again!

Thats for the boot light. Place a globe in there. Usually on most cars, because of their age the boot light switch on the latch fails and the light can stay on even when boot is closed. Hey presto dead battery. Thats probably why it's not installed.

Cheers

    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
