hey all... question. does anyone know where on the ignition switch the green wire from the voltage regulator goes? to be more specific...the "green" wire comes off the VR plug and according to the wiring diagrams i have it goes directly to the ignition switch. if only that were so... it goes thru a punch of connection points first. was wondering if this wire is supposed to be connected in a splice to the black with a blue stripe at the switch. if not, can i connect it there anyway to get power? there is a constant power send once teh switch is on at the black/blue wire.

So I have a '71 turn signal switch hooked to a '73 dash and headlight switch. Besides the fact that my turn signal switch needs some cleaning and checking, people say that '71 and '73 switches differ. I'm wondering if there is a way to use the '71 switch on '73 setup with some kind of conversion. Now, I ordered Wick Humble's How to Restore blah blah blah book. Does the book show you how to restore a t/s switch? Anyone know how to convert a '71 t/s switch to use on a '73 dash?

I've been out working on the car tonight and I noticed something odd. With the headlights off and whether the car is started or not, when I depress the brake pedal the interior dash lights illuminate as do the front parking lights. When I take the foot off the brake pedal they turn off. I'm not sure if this is a new phenomenon or something that has happened on my watch. I recently washed the engine but this seems like an odd result. I also have the heater control panel and all of the connected items removed while I replace it. I also removed the clock and tried to clean it (and I changed it's bulb). None of those things are particularly logical causes of this. All …

ZCar Creations can sell you a stainless bolt kit with a bolt labeled 'wiper motor gound.' Where do you find that bolt? If the motor grounds to the body, maybe it's a big reason why it runs so slow.

I need a socket and pigtail for a rear taillight for a 1973 240Z. The plastic has broken. I do not want to buy a whole new harness so I need the socket and wiring for the back taillight only. Does anyone know where I can get this puppy? It is the socket and wire only I don't want the harness. By the way it is for the RIGHT rear taillight. Thanks for the help if you can.

Alright, so I pulled my dash to replace some bulbs in my gauges, and to take out all of the wiring that the P.O. had put in for his amp install (which is no longer there), as well as to remove all of my aftermarket air conditioning wiring. When I went to disconnect the wires that go to the brake light switch (I'm not sure if this is the correct name, but I believe it works) one of the wires ripped off of the unit itself (I know, I probably pulled too hard). I pulled the unit out, and soldered it back onto the connector, then tested it with a multimeter, and it was working just fine. I put it back onto the car, and the drivers side brake light now does not work all of t…
