| Hi there On my 96 JZZ30 vvti I have the following problem. My O/D and SLIP CONT OFF lights flash while the dash flashes with the message, "SLIP CONT ECT". Also there is now constantly a red light on in the dash on the LHS of the SLIP CONT ECT message. Any idea what I can do, any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance. |

| Not from me, Slip Control isn't common as far as I know. It's for snow jobs. |

| josh, if it is anything like my car, if i loose traction in the wet, i get a little orange car with some "drifty" lines behind it, and if actually being to slide out, i have a message come up on my dash next to the speedo readout saying "Snow". you should have a button underneath the dash to the left hand side of the steering column that says "Slip Cont" and a message will display on the dash "Slip Cont Off". i will take a few pictures tonight and show you what i mean. also if possible can you take a picture of what your dash looks like? |

| Yeah mine works exactly how Andrew explained it. I'm not sure what the red light on the LHS of the message is, if you can take a pic or explain what the light looks like it'll be helpful. |

Havent used the car for a few weeks and just started driving it again in the last few days with no problems, done around 300km. Then suddenly the exact same problem started again. Please help me. What to do? |

| Do you mean the words Muzzy? That red light is always on.Its definately bad news as it starts as soon as the car is on and ever so often it makes a beep sound. The words and "O/D off" and "Slip Cont Off" all flash. Should I stop driving it? |

| ETC there is something going on with the transmission. is the trans shifting ok, not slipping, delay in changing gear?? not being used for a few weeks, could there be a blockage in the trans filter/ strainer, low oil?? |

| Thanks for reply Scott. Trans shifts fine and no delay in changing gears. When it was used a few weeks ago, the same thing happened. |

| Hiya Dave, tryed disconnecting battery to no avail. You think flushing the box may resolve? Got serviced/fluids replaced in compliance here yeah? So cant be low fluids. Sticker says its not due for a service for another 8 000kms but should I put it in anyway? Local mechanic had no idea what it was. I'll post a pic of that diagnostics plug for all the gurus, I'm sure someone will know what it is. Dave PM sent. Feel bad to drive it as it always showing the error message and beeping at me |

| Does the OD flash repetitively. Dont know about the slip control thing, but the OD light flashes if the front speed sensor on the gearbox fails. The car still feels like it goes into 4th, but there is an issue you an still feel. Replace the front speed sensor and all fixed. |
