Hello,

I had my idle valve gasket replaced and the idle reset by a mechanic to get rid of the high idle on my R32 GTR. Now my 4wd is lighting up on the dash and I'm getting a code 21 on the Attessa, which is a TPS error. I haven't checked the voltage (simply I'm not sure the correct way to check it, I'll probably just disconnect the harness to the Attessa Unit in the boot and check the car with the engine off but ignition on). Today I tried to run the car with my foot resting on the throttle (lightly), hench making the voltage on the TPS higher and my 4wd light never came on and the 4wd was working perfectly. So I'm almost 100% certain the TPS voltage is low. Now my new problem is that I'm unsure how to adjust it to be at the right voltage. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Mitch

I tested it tonight by probing (with a sewing needle) into the TPS's harness. I tapped into the middle wire and grounded onto the battery and got a voltage of 0.52V, the manual says approx 0.5V so I should be good. The 4wd light didn't come on when I drove the car (only drove it 2 minutes).

My plan is tomorrow when driving it if the light come on to probe the TPS again and the Attessa-Ets unit in the boot and see if I get the correct voltage. Then I can rule out the TPS sensor and then either my harness is bad or Attessa or the ECCS have gone bad. In the manual it says the Attessa-ETS is supposed to have 0.4V at idle and the ECCS is supposed to have 0.375V. So I'll tests those.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
