Exclamation SLIP / TCS light comes on (solved) and ignition problem

Hi all,,


I have 2 problems

1st: ((SOLVED))
The SLIP / TCS light comes on the moment I start driving / rolling the car out of the driveway.

Sometime I can feel the slip / tcs kick in like crazy! (similar to abs kicking in).
Sometime only the lights comes on with no sign of it kicking in.

After both lights come on I can't switch on/off the TCS
and (TCS off) light remains on till I restart th car


Solution: I have checked the car using Consult II and C1143 Code appeared
its for ((Steering Angle Sensor))
and all I needed is reset the steering angel using Consult II (steps are attached))

2nd:
The car doesn't start fast as the others! the ignition takes few seconds to start the engine spacially when the car is hot!
the battery and battery wiers are fine and the ar starts normaly when its cold (morning time)




Can anyone give me some solutions for this ??
the light is getting very annoying and I want to get it fixed and the starting makes m emmbaress asap

1) Have you changed tires recently? Read this... https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....1&postcount=45

Done any work on the brakes, wheels or suspension?

2) Weak battery.

The problem could be in any one of the 4 wheel speed sensors. Or it could be a problem with the computer that controls TCS/ABS.

Check your pads, rotors & brake fluid.

about ignition problem:
my battery is good, it never comes morning time! only if the engine is warm!

could it be from crank sensor or camshaft sensor?
I have no SES related to that
I have only P1051 ((A/F Sensor Heater), is it left side front one?? Correct me if I'm wrong!

When the engine gets warm, so does the starter motor. The heat increases the resistance in the windings of the starter motor making it weaker and harder to turn over.

How do you know ABS is functioning properly? Is there a dealer nearby you can get the brake/TCS system tested ?

The sound of the starter is normal, fast and turns over as normal,, just the engine needs longer starter turns when it get warm,,
(I could know if its from the battery electrycity or starter)
when the battery is bad or starter is week, it becom slower and harder to turn over, but in my car it's some thing like the fuel is not there so it turns over and over for few seconds then get start. (I hope you got my point)



the light of ABS is off and while applynig hard brake its functiong normally
(I can feel it)

I had this problem and it was throwing codes for crank position sensor. Do you have CAI? Where do you live? I put my stock air box back on and cleared the codes(haven't had problems since). These hot *** temps we have been having in the south have been ******* with A/F ratios. check this other thread
