So I replaced the horn relay, and still no horn. Works when I run juice through the wire going to the horn, so I guess that's a good sign. Maybe it's something at the steering wheel end? Here's some pics. I have everything (I'm assuming) but I'm wondering if anything's supposed to go in those other holes. Anything supposed to go in those other holes? Side view with green/black wire that goes to the relay, as far as I can tell. Does anything look wrong or out of place?

Hey guys, just looking for the horn relay. I'm assuming I know the general location, so which one of these is it? The previous owner did some intersting wiring, so I'm in for some fun in the near future... Same location, just a different angle.

I'm having an electrical problem, and I hope someone can point me in the right direction or give me some better troubleshooting tips than what I currently have in my toolbox. I have a reasonably stock 240Z, with an upgraded alternator (ZSpecialties 105 amp, internally regulated). I drove my car to work on Thursday, and then used her to run a few assorted errands (I figure I put sixty miles or so on the car that day). That evening, I took her out again, and she started running very rough and the gauges started jumping all over the place. I finally babied her off the road (luckily I was on a downhill at the time), and after finally dying....she refused to start. I tried to …

Hey guys, was messing with the car today and the headlights worked the entire time I was messing around. Went to put the car back in its spot, turned the lights on and they stayed on then flashed and wouldn't go back on. My first thought was the fuses, but the connections in both the headlight fuses are still fine. All the other lights on the car work but just the headlights don't seem to work. I was reading around on here and most people seem to say that there low beams die but the high beams still work. I will have to see if thats the case and I might run outside to try that now. I did have the ignition switch cover off, but I dont really think that effected it. What el…

Anyone out there have a diagram of the early series 1 dash wire harness, from 10/69 to 1/70? Enrique (Escanlon) was kind enough to supply me with many wire diagrams but they were for later years. I am going through the repair process of my harness and would love a diagram to assist in the cause. Thanks, Stephen

I see few Nissan part number but I'm confuse...:ninja: 1) '81-'81 L28ET Auto Air Cond Part#24012-P9002 2) '81-'81 *FED.(2S 4S).(L28E L28ET).MT.F5.J Part#24012-P7906 3) '81-'81 (2S+4S).(L28E+L28ET).MT.J Part#24012-P7900 First I'm in Canada, so it should be a canadian model, but it is a turbo in the same way. The VIN number should be no the same of turbo or Canadian model. My VIN say Turbo. Next in 1981 the turbo model was only auto tranny. In '82-'83 they do some MT turbo. So why on 2) they have MT application o…

'77 280. stock. conducted continuity and voltage checks on steering column combo switch =OK. headlights themselves(taken off car) =OK, fusible links =OK. fuse box fuses, front contacts and rear of fuse box panel =OK. both sockets for the lamps are dead. i do notice that the wires leaving the fuse panel are red with yellow stripe (normal driving lamp), and solid red (hibeam), yet the wires at the socket (pass side) are red with black stripe. is there a splice i'm missing? from the fuse block to the socket there doesn't seem to be anymore splices (or harnesses) in the large main loom going through the firewall. any help is appreciated.

hey all, just raised the console to troubleshoot why the choke light doesn't come on... bulb is GOOD choke light switch is GOOD i've checked my hard copy FSM's schematic, and don't see the choke light or switch anywhere on the drawing. it seems that the red and black male connector behing the fuse panel never has power. this male connector goes to the female choke light switch. the switch is a simple single loop open when choke lever is down and closed when up. i also see the larger loom of wires that attach to the underside of the fuse panel into the main loom from the passenger side. without the schematic i'm kind of at a loss.. any help would be great ! no…

I just picked up an underdash harness from Arne ( in beautiful condition!), that I was going to use to replace my early series 1 harness (production 1/70). The part numbers that are still on the replacement harness are 24013-E4650 and E4651, for the engine and rear harness connections. Many of the connectors for the engine and rear harness do not match up. What year harness does this come off of? I tried looking for these numbers off of the microfiche but couldn't find them. Thanks!

i'm comtemplating putting my 76 z together without the a/c equipment as i will not use it. if i can find a heater control dash box without the a/c option, is it fairly straightforward to replace my original a/c heater control unit with the non a/c unit? any input appreciated as i'm not sure what i'm getting into.
