Hicas Light

[ImPrOvIsE]

Hi Guys, recently my HICAS light on my dash has been lit up. Have checked the fuse in the boot and that seems to be fine.

Has anyone got any idea of what might be causing this. Should mention that i just had a stereo installed in case this is related

Do a dodgy and remove the light

...worked for my airbag light

You might need to set your computer into diagnostic mode. I did this to solve my flashing airbag light problem...don't know if it will work for your HICAS light though.

Open your driver door.

turn your ignition to the "on" position

locate the black door switch inside the driver door (its to your right just behind you)

press this at least 5 times within 7 seconds - this puts the car into diagnostic mode.

To return the car to normal mode you turn ignition "off" for 1 second and then turn to "on" again

This solved the flashing airbag light problem on my R33

do you have an after market steering wheel?

yeah if u have the wrong boss kit on your aftermarket steering wheel will cause the light to come on, mine did it cause i had the wrong boss kit.

i had the same problem

Mine was fixed by cleaning up the earth point on the body from the battery and making sure the earth lead was nice and tight this fixed it.

hope it helps
