Racepace in Bayswater fixed mine,

There might be a leak in your power steering system, even a small one will trigger the light to comes on i think.

Are you experiencing any other problems apart from the light coming up?

Do the diagnostic and see what the problem is and go from there.

Edit: Check the amount of fluid in the reservoir in the boot, right hand side there is a panel (opposite to where the jack is stored on the left). Could be low, but only fill it up with 'Nissan matic-D special blend trans fluid.'

Diagnostic should be as simple as,

1. Park the car by the road side (when the light has come on). Do not turn it off.

2. Open the boot.

3. Look at the underside of the ATTESSA computer & count the number of times the light flashes. It will flash for anything up to 20 odd times before stopping for a few seconds.

4. Remember the number then look it up in the workshop manual.

5. Then follow the diagnostic/repair procedure as detailed there.

Give Amberley Autos in Dandenong a try. I took my R33 GTR there when my ABS/4WD lights were coming on. They have diagnostic equipment to check error codes etc.

[bludger]

amberley autos.they said they do that diagnostic thing just resets some code but not 100% if error will come up.and there booked also.does anyone wana help me try bleed the thing maybe give that a shot.any1 else i can try guys???

[ylwgtr2]

Why dont you do what the other guy posted by diong a diag and checking in the book whats wrong with it????Im not suprised no one has offered to directly help as you can only help those that help themselves

[bludger]

because im not to good with cars and wouldnt wana stuff something else up while trying to do that.

well from memory your car had errors 2 8 and 9. ABS issues?

[cotcho_gtr]

Take it to EAS performance in airport west, Victory st. Tell him Con sent you, Is your attessa working when your 4wd light is on?

[bludger]

the way i read it it looked like 2,8,9 .i dont think its would be the abs as it has been taken out b4 i got it and i have the car for 8months and 4wd problem only started last week.

does any1 know some one that works after hours or even at home that can have a look whats wrong and fix the problem???

[CeJay]

well if the abs was taken out that would explain 8 and 9, number 2 might be the issue.

mines had the abs module taken out, and it occasionally gets code 8 and 9 as well.

[bludger]

yer but as i was saying iv had it for 8months and its never been a prob,how did you fix your problem cejay

[bludger]

yer im pretty sure the attessa is working il give them a call tomorrow and see what they say.

[CeJay]

yer but as i was saying iv had it for 8months and its never been a prob,how did you fix your problem cejay

Well can't really fix 8 and 9 without putting the abs back in. I normally turn the car off and restart it if it's just 8 and 9, I'd try and ask a specialist about your other error code. I have an intermittent problem as well myself but its a different code, in my case it was a g sensor related issue.

[bludger]

yer but does your car work on 4wd,isnt there some abs wire i can just cut so it shuts it up

[CeJay]

my 4wd normally works but does come up with 8 an 9 occassionally.

[bludger]

so isnt there anyway of getting my 4wd to work even with those errors no abs wires we can cut to stop getting the errors or some kinda short cut to get my 4wd workn till i take it some were?

[CeJay]

wouldn't have a clue, just know that my 4wd does work even though I have no abs actuator etc (occasionally it doesn't but normally it's due to another error code) don't know why it's working best to take it to someone who knows more about the system.
