I only got car today. Initially 4WS light stayed on only few secs while beeping as in testing or whatever. Now it stays on permanently.

What's th problem and what can be done?? Thanks! Oh and I don't know much so any technical stuff needs to be in lamens terms, cheers!

 

You need to pull a code from the 4ws computer!
theres 2x connectors behind the centre console under the dash, Unclip the blue one and bridge the connector with a piece of wire in a 'U' shape. Then turn you ignition to ON and count the flashes (see 4ws manual for codes)

 

but try and turn the car off .. re-start ..turn the steering wheel all theway left then right and see if that clears the code.

 

Yohan, you sure it wasn't Right then left?

 

If that diesn't work, pull the stereo fuse to reset the ECU.

 

read the code first, before you pull the fuse. Pulling the fuse will simply erase the computers memory and then you wont be able to get code.

AS some codes are for temporary drving conditions pulling fuse will wipe this and it might take awhile for same code to occur

 

Well as suggested by someone I disconnected the battery for couple mins, when started again the light went out, but now it's back so will have to try and get the code. However I wont be able to look code up as it's an import and as such can't read the manual lol. Also dunno which fuse is which. So if I manage to get a code (number of beeps right?) and put it on here can someone look it up for me? Cheers!

 

Mail me - I have a complete 4WS troubleshooting guide in pdf format and I can help you. This concerns 4 generation.

 

I"ve got the helms w/ 4ws also so i can give you a diagnostic as wel.

 

Cheers guys. Will be going to the guy where I bought the car this Thursday to hopefully sort it. Also my right wing mirror doesn't fold in auto now so needs a look to.
