Hicas Issue


Recommended Posts

Yesterday I installed one of these quick and easy HICAS lock shim kits, and was expecting the HICAS light to come on when I installed them. Well the light hasn't come on at all, even though the HICAS system is effectively locked.. I know the light works because the light comes on when I start the car, then turns off again.

The HICAS was acting up before I put these washers in, felt like the back end was floating.. Anybody know why the light doesnt come on now? It's not really a big deal but Im kind of mystified about it.

Sup,

Perhaps one of your rear wheels was out of alignment, and the kit has forced them straight..

If you have the Tomei kit, I'd still use the electronic lock out box - Otherwise if Hicas tries to steer the rear wheels, and they cant, there's added strain to the power steering pump. (Like overlocking your steering wheel and holding it there tight, bad.)
