Suprahitz Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 (edited) Hi guys. Appreciate your help. I just replaced the battery in my car which died. It was due for replacement too due to age. Also after a night of spirited driving with the turbos, the car was left off for over a week before battery replaced. After turning the ignition on all lights came on as required including the limited slip off one. After keeping the car started and pressing the Slip diff off button on the dash, the light does not come on any longer in the dash. This was working before. Any ideas if any fuse or any thing gone?

straightsix Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Checked the bulb? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprahitz Posted September 22, 2014 Author Share Posted September 22, 2014 (edited) The slip diff off bulb did come on alongside other bulbs when I turned the ignition on. When the engine is turned on the lights go out as required unless you press the traction control off button which doesnt seem to do anything for me. Could it be button failed?

safcdixon Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Mine flashes constantly, does yours do this? I had a relay problem a few weeks back which caused some problems so Im blaming that on mine, maybe youve damaged something with a short on the system when replacing the battary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I did hear a clicking noise several times when attempting to recharge the old battery using one of those clever trickle car battery chargers whilst still connected to the car. Maybe TC relay gone in box on driver side in the bay? I checked the red 7.5A fuse in the bay and was ok.

2jzEd Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I'd take a guess that your traction control ecu took a dump, I opened mine and it was leaking everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprahitz Posted September 23, 2014 Author Share Posted September 23, 2014 (edited) Thanks for all your replies guys. Problem sorted. The stupid connector behind the switch in the dash got disconnected somehow!
