Hello, ist there a list of connectors which were used in the Fairladies? I would like to build a complete new harness and if it is possible I would like to do that with the original-style connectors. Does anybody know the manufacturers and respective connector series that were used? That would really help my search. I know that I can get some of the connectors at http://www.vintageconnections.com/, but I live in Germany and would like to source the parts locally or at least inside the EU. Thank you very much.

Trouble shooting 1973 240z Ammeter/Fuel gauge. Ammeter works fine, it is the Fuel Gauge not working at all. With the gauge out I tested the car wiring harness 4 wire plug with 3 wires with a test light. With ignition off NOTHING (as expected). Turn on Ignition. NOTHING on black wire (obvious ground). NOTHING on Yellow wire (UNIT connection on gauge) I believe this runs to gas tank. LIGHTS UP on Yellow w/Red Strip wire (IGN connection on gauge) Ignition connection. So this is normal correct? I need to check the gauge? (Back Ground Info: Fuel gauge never worked. RENU Gas Tank - restored my tank. I had a shop install tank with new float and check the wiring at that tim…

I have noticed that when I toggle between the high/low beam, about 50% of the time when I switch back to the low beams, the headlights completely turn off until I lightly touch/press the T/S switch in towards the steering wheel again. Not a full "click" again... just lightly touching the T/S stalk will cause the headlights to come back on. Any suggestions for how to get this to toggle properly without having the headlights shut off? @dhp123166 - just thought I would get your thoughts here too since you rebuilt/refurbished the switch... any ideas? Thanks in advance!

I removed by faulty Ammeter/Fuel gauge. Ammeter was fine but the fuel gauge never worked. I changed out the fuel tank float and checked the wiring first, its the fuel gauge. I removed the gauge reconnected battery, car won't start, no power at all. Do you need the ammeter connected? Couldn't fine any topics on how to bench test a fuel gauge.

Hi! I thought I would start a new thread since the old one is now buried with a lot of different info. I have a 1971 240z and the turn signals are not working. Here is what has been done/tested so far: Turn signal switch refurbished/rebuilt Hazard lights work perfectly Confirmed 12v at the green wire coming into the relay/flasher Confirmed that the relay/flasher is working (swapped it with the hazard one to confirm) Relay/Flasher is brand new EF32/EL12 model (also tried LL552 with same result) When holding a test light to each pin on the 6-pin/5-wire connector on the turn signal switch, it lights up when the lever is up or down…

Having a weird issue that I’m having trouble diagnose and hoping someone can give some help/insight. The turn signals are not working… hazards are working just fine. When the hazard switch is off, I get 12v at the green wire going into the flasher relay so that tells me (I believe) that the hazard switch is working. If I plug a test light into the green wire (going into the relay) it lights up normally/bright. If I connect the test light to the white wire it lights up very faintly and sometimes I get a very quiet/light click on the relay. I cannot figure out why the light is so dim/faint on the white wire and subsequently why the turn signa…

Shorted and burned the wire soon as i hooked it up. You can see where it burned out. Can anyone see how i hooked it up wrong? I have the black fusible link right behind the red battery terminal wire. Was i supposed to put it on the other post/nut right next to that one?

I have a few ignition questions please. Here are the first 2. 1. the black wire (with yellow wire). Any idea what it is or where it goes. It was broke off when i bought the car. 2. the other green circle beside the the red wire has a fork that goes somewhere. Should it just go under one of the screws? thanks much

1971 240Z. My headlights, dash lights, and horn all work, but not well. Headlights are dim, dash lights are barely there, and I doubt the horn could be heard from 100 feet. Fuses are OK. Any ideas? Thanks
