Morning Everyone [/size]

I was just wondering if any one can guide me on this issue I am having with my awd system on my r32 gts4. [/size]


When I bought the car the awd system never worked and last night I thought I start playing doctor and see what is causing this system not to work. [/size]

So Symptoms [/size]

1. When you turn the key on no AWD or Hicas lights come on, [/size]
2. Checked 10A fuse under Dash, Fuse is good ( Continuity ) but once u plug it in there is no power or Continuity. [/size]
3. Ecu no red light on & no wires cut [/size]
4. Fuse under hood ( anti-skid 30am) no continuity or power when key is turned on [/size]
5. Relay in the truck next to the latch has power but no continuity [/size]
6. I bypassed the Relay, pump comes on but if you hold it there for a while it makes a nasty noise... [/size]sad.gif
7. There is fluid in Tank located in the truck [/size]


I found a Attesa ECU wiring Diagram and will be working on it tonight, with searching I found that pin 42 sometimes need to be grounded. [/size]

This video Helped a lot. [/size]

I need to Test the power wire to ECU and trace the wire from fuse box under dash to its power and ground, but if any one has had this issue it be great help save me some time and money. [/size]

Cheers [/size]

What do you mean by "has power but no continuity"? Does that mean that there's power on one side of the fuse but not the other? Does that mean that there's power on both sides of the fuse but the wire that goes out to the circuit appears to be broken?

If I inherited a problem like this, I would tend towards the assumption that something mechanical in the AWD system died and the owner took the simple bodgy approach of disconnecting the electrics to it rather than fix it.

Have you checked the globes? The lights should come on when the key is turned to "ON" (before "START") - its a check that the globes are working. Otherwise, if the lights come on while the engine is running, it means there is an error in the HICAS &/or ATTESA.

The fuse box under the hood does only have power on one side and no continuity, i did find a plug that is unplugged that connects to the fuse box under the hood, but there is nothing to plug it in to... its attached to wire that goes in the strut tower.

yes i aggree that something was wrong with the awd system and he disconnected it electronically, because there is no power going to the ECU but there is power to the relay in the truck

no there is no lights that come on the dash, only ebrake and seat belt i think are the only ones,

I was looking for the Ignition wire to Fuse box to see if that has been cut because the circuit is not complete when the ignition is on. I just dont understand how there is power to the relay in the truck. I got a wiring diagram but doesnt help much i need to find it in the car

Yes... My bad

In the boot. Just left of the boot lid catch, there are two relays. The bigger one on the left is the 4WD relay.

ya the big one if i bypass the red and yellow wires i hear the pump come on but there is no power to ecu. I did find a plug unplugged that is connected to the ABS wire... doesnt seem like there is anything that connects to it because there is nothing in the area.

Also

I do not have ABS.

can anyone show me what dash lights are suppose to come on in a gts-4 Please

Can't seem to post a pic, but lights as follows:

left side:

Anti-Lock HICAS

Handbrake Battery

and right side:

Oil

4WD

I believe you must have ABS, because ATTESA uses the ABS wheel sensors to detect slip.

So I am stumped right now I have taken the driver kick panel off and its nothing but wires for the compustar car alarm. Its like a rats nest.

Is there any way that you can cut power to awd and abs.

The 4wd fuse is good both under hood and under dash.

I don't want to touch those wires cuz I am not suee whey they go.

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
