HELP!!! Slip indicator lights (Hill-start assist) solid on

hptsang · 11-08-2009, 10:48 PM

I read the Slip indicator comes on when at a full stop but it didn't fix my problem. I was on my drive way the other day installing my fog light stalk switch with my battery disconnected. After I finished the installation, that slip indicator came on. It doesn't beep or flash or anything. I tried the press the brake very hard to turn it off, but it doesn't work. I tried the release the brake but it doesn't do that delay on brake. Is there any way to turn it off?

I wonder if there is a chance you might have crossed or shorted something while you were re-wiring?
When I was working on my fog mod, I pulled a harness from my ECU to get a better look and I lost all my data on the HSI. Everything but my best tank average and the ODO. All my trip data is gone...

Check under the hood for a blown 10 amp fuse. This happened to me when I was installing mu BU lights

All my trip data is gone too but I know that is just because I disconnected my battery.

Can you tell me Which 10 amp fuse? I couldn't find a blown one

ABL · 11-10-2009, 04:05 PM

It was the 10 amp PCU fuse lower right end of the fuse box. I blew it twice and this caused the slip light to remain on until I replaced the fuse. Hope this helps Good luck

Just curious Jim, how did you blow the fuse twice? So I don't do it myself.

Shorted out the rear cargo lamp (Manual On/Off) switch. Very thin wires.
