1971 turn signal lights/brakes

Recommended Posts

1st off I have a 1971 240z

2nd my hazard lights work fine

3rd Turn signal switch only has three wires to it. Green, wht/blk and wht/rd must be from a later model of car 260z most likely.

4th Combo switch is probably from 260z also, it has 12 wires to the singe connector. There are three extra to my harness that someone spliced the plug in on both sides. I just looked at a unmolested 240z plug and there are only 6 wires to the main combo switch connector.

These are the following wires that are loose from the 71 wiring harness. Some I know what they are for, others Don't have a clue and the crappy wiring diagrams don't show them.

For Turn signals:

Gr/Blk---- right rear brake light/Turn signal

Gr/Rd---- left rear brake light/Turn Siganl

Gr/Blk---- right front turn signal

Gr/Rd----Left front turn signal

Gr/Y---- from brake switch -hot when brake is pushed

White---- hot when ignition is at Run

Rd----?

Blk----?

Blk/Y----?

These last three wires are not hot at all and are not grounded to the body.

So it looks like I only have one option to get the turn signals and brake light switch to work is the write up from WWW.zhome.com on the (triple pole, double throw) 12V coil relays?

Why is my hot wire with ignition on the (White wire)?

Where's the Green Wire, I've looked twice, three, four times.

Any ideas what the Red, Black and Black/Yellow wires for?

Any help please I am tired of guessing on this stuff.

The headlights I got to work finally after reading a post about the combo switch carbonizing.
