Hi all,

Does anybody know anythin about possible faults of the intercool spray on a Classic type R?

My Auto function doesnt appear to work but manual does!

Anybody have this problem before?

Thanks in advance

Does the switch light up?
Could be the connector came off the back of the switch...

Maybe you havent given it enough stick!!!!

Had to really push mine before it activated....

Phildodd06

It should come on when you are on boost, so shouldnt really need to give it to much stick

hi,

mine does this aswel, dont know if it anything to due with having an apexi????

mozzaITA

Switch lights up - ive given her stick alright, but not for every second i drive it though, seriously i see it boost to 15 psi when im lead footing it but it hasnt come on.

Im stumped, how does it know when your boosting?

mozzaITA

Hey, im pretty sure its not working - people say on here that with a good a/b road blast their bottle gets empty ive been driving on boost and none has been consumed unless im not driving hard enough maybe? I did notice after a hard drive that the intercooler was baking and no water in sight....

I am confused as to why it works on manual and dont appear to on auto mode?

What does the water empty light look like anyway?

Hey what part for hertfordshire you from?

It wont work if you have an apexi, as it's the ECU that triggers the auto mode.

The manual mode is just a switch to trigger the 5 second spray relay, so doesnt use the ECU.

When i first bought my STi5 RA, the auto mode didnt work. Some numptie had plugged the switches in incorectly and used the wrong (spare) plug. The light still came on but it was switching something that didnt exist. Have a look and see if there is a "spare" connector behind the switch panel as you may have the same issue.

Thanks John, i dont think my ecu has been tampered wiv......

How do i remove the switch/switch panel? is it s screw driver job to prise it off?

johnfelstead

If its the same as the My99 setup, you can drop the whole kick panel the switches are mounted in by removing a few plastic clips, screws.

The light is orange and says
I/C
SPRAY

Hmmm, i know it probably wont make the world of difference but i just want everything to work!!

Hav never seen that light on the dash, i take it it dont come on when u start the car up?

Stevenage..... strange i bought my car a month ago from stevenage!!...I done the house thing first and finally after years of wanting i bought a 4x4 rally car for the road if ya know what i mean!!

P.s ur car looks just like mine!! They must breed in stevenage lol

Nope, it only lights up when the bottle is empty, well it flickers on when driving hard and cornering when its low.

mozzaITA

never seen it flicker on atall
