Somewhat easy wiring question


Tri-Star

Recommended Posts

I don’t have a hazard switch/cant find one…and the turn signal power runs though the hazard. So I connected the 2 center green wires in the wiring diagram for the turn signals. Now the turn signals work correctly when I click left or right but when it’s in the center both flash (on the turn signal flasher…. NOT the hazard flasher…I have 2 different flashers so I can heard the difference) It shouldn’t be too hard but what do I need to do to prevent it from flashing when centered? (IE how dose the hazard switch allow power to go to the left and right but not when centered when hazard switch is off?)

I have the service manuals(ie the diagrams) thats how i know its the 2 center green wirings headed to the hazzard switch. I was hoping i could just bypass the hazzard by connecting them. it works but when i dont have the turn signales going to the left or right it flashs both in stead of none.

Its a 74 260z

Err... I'm having a hard time understanding what you're saying... and it might help others who are more capable of helping you... but...

... Did you say you have your turn signals going through your hazard flasher unit or vice-versa... or what?

The extent of my knowledge takes me to the point where I can say that there are two flasher units... one for your hazards, and one for your turn signals... and somehow I don't think it's wise to combine them or rewire them (as it sounds like you did, correct me if I'm wrong though).

Also, no hazard switch? ... There isn't a switch on your center console just below the stereo specifically labeled "Hazard?" ...

I find it difficult to believe that Nissan would ship a Z lacking proper hazard fittings... If the switch is really absent, is it possible that a Previous Owner replaced the console and just forgot to include the fitting for the switch?... or perhaps it got relocated?

EDIT: Okay, I'm starting to understand your problem a little more. You're saying that the SIGNAL flasher is making both lights flash simultaneously, right?
