240 Turn Signal Problems???

Hello all,

Car 1971 Datsun 240z HLS30-22328

I am having rear turn signal problems.

I had a hacked up front engine wire harness in the car. I changed it out to a new cleaner un molested harness. I have cleaned all connectors in the car with contact cleaner and a tooth brush and so on.

The problem I am having is, when I turn on the signals to go left... Just the front LH signal comes on and not the rear. When I put the signals on to go right. The RH front signal works and both the LH and RH rear come on. I have tried switching out the signal switch and I have the same problem. I have by-passed the flasher unit and again I get the same response. I have tried as well 2 different rear wire harnesses in the car and yet again the same problem. Not even a slight response out of the LH rear signal at all!!!

I have also put new bulbs in and gone over the dash wire harness and it does not look like its had any work or been modifyed in any way.

If anyone has any ideas. I would love the help.

Thanks,

    • I'm still waiting on a hoist to free up before I can start bolting the new brake parts on my Z, but I did make the drill jig today.  I started with a 12mm thick Mustang wheel spacer with a pilot.  I then made a drawing to layout the holes needed.  I transfered the drawing onto the spacer and I drilled three new 1/8" holes through the jig (spacer) so I'd have the correct 4x114.3mm holes.  One hole is shared from the original 5 lug rotor.  I then bolted the jig onto the Mustang rotor and simply dr
    • Local radiator repair shops used to be plentiful but getting harder to find.  Some of them just specialize in big truck-heavy equipment radiators.  I will be needing to do the same for my project.  I have heard good reports on gas tank RENU but there are none of those franchises in my area.  Good luck, John-Lugoff, SC
    • Decided to go with the 240sx conversion. Main reason is it’s strictly for the street and the parts were easy to source. What I didn’t realize was the 14” wheels won’t clear the caliper. Now looking for a set of 4 lug 15” rims and tires I can use during the build process. Can anyone recommend a temporary solution as far as make and model preferably a steel wheel that I can use until I’m ready to buy the wheel and tire combination at the end of the project? Thanks again for all the help out there.
    • There are several reasons to use the S197 rear brakes.  The rotors are larger diameter than the SVO rotors and they are vented.  The calipers have larger pistons to give them more power.  The big beef with the Maxima rears is that they don't offer as much stopping power as the stock drums.  The S197 rears allow the addition of an adjustable proportioning valve.  The Maxima rears cannot utilize an adjustable prop since the prop needs to be all the way open to get close to enough rear bias. 
    • Any particular reason to use S197 Mustang 5-lug brakes?  The Fox body SVO Mustangs had rear discs with 4-lug.  It's a popular swap to use SVO or T-bird Turbo Coupe rear brakes to retrofit discs to other Fox body Mustangs.  These parts are still pretty common (probably available as a kit).  Might be worth checking to see if they'll fit.
