Faulted DCCD - V3 STI RA


Recommended Posts

Hi, running out of ideas for an annoying problem with my DCCD.

 

My V3 RA with DCCD classic gets a flashing DCCD light on dash, has been happening since the g/box oil was replaced, but suspect that just made an existing problem worse (check my other post)

 

It faults on IGN on, very quick light up LOCK and then "click" blinking on OPEN (last O on dash), rolling switch does nothing, DCCD feels like in OPEN mode - which I think is to be expected on fault.

 

Occasionally, once its been warmed for a while, I get 20 secs or so when DCCD does not fault.

Scroll works, dash lights work, mechanically is "feels" like the DCCD is working, handbrake light on seems to disengage however this lasts for around 20 seconds and then will go to fault again.

 

I've reseated the 6 pin harness on top of gearbox housing - looked fine, and wiggled/degreased wiring that leads into the gearbox itself whilst up on a mates hoist.

I've also disconnect battery for long enough to clear any fault in the DCCD Controller (unsure if this did anything) and checked g/box oil level is good.

 

I believe V3 DCCD isn't as complex as later models, ie, not ABS sensors or steering angle sensors but any ideas what I could try next?

My feeling is its electrical and most likely inside the g/box, but appreciate any insight.

 

Thanks

Yeah, I've been unsuccessful trying to get the procedure on that. Any links or how to would be appreciated greatly.. 

 

You are the first to hear this, but I've just ordered a very special, very expensive, ODBII reader that works with the models from the GC era. I've ordered it with international courier and will test as soon as it arrives on one of my GC's then will message you to come over and we can plug in and take a look.

Hey thanks for the generous offer - my apologies for only just responding now.

 

I'm not running stock ECU (Link G4) and do not have access to the original V3 unit.

I'm guessing this would probably prevent any error codes being read off anyway whether using OBDII or not.

Also, I'm Wellington based, an not often in Auck.

I'd love to try another controller to rule that out. Pretty expensive (unless I score a loaner unit) when it could be something electrical in the gbox itself.

Might locate the dccd controller this weekend and check it as I haven't done that yet.

 

What is the most common fault on the classic dccd? I keep reading about coil faults and wiring failures in the box.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
