  1. Success!! I took main cf ter panel out to get access to the hazard switch. I had most of it out of way anyway. I unplugged both harness at the switch. Had power at three green terminals, two lower and one center for future use by someone else struggling. Could not find any problems but the signal started flashing. So it Must have been bad connection. Now to continue the wire question color issues that have come up: On my 72Z it is NOT the same at all. The mysterious solid green under colum does tie into the solid white. I left the always live red from the main harness alone it is unconnected. Thanks for everyone's input. Of course I just tried it for giggles and it's not working but it must be a dirty conection.
  2. Steve I have checked both sides of each fuse with a power tester. Both terminals have power. Except there is zero power neither of the two right upper ones.
  3. Steve the hazards are working fine. All fuses ok however: the two fuses on upper passenger side do not have power but both headlights tail lights are fine. Keep in mind this Zcar was in pieces when I bought it, shell only with everything was in boxes. That's why I suspect I have a wire hooked up wrong or missing but I can't find it.
  4. I just followed beermanpetes guide. Still no turn signals but wipers and headlights and horn are fine here's what is hooked up and what I question still and can tell the forum 2 poles l shaped plug under drivers feet are the signal/flasher are solid white and solid green single pole red flat lead under switch is always hot even with key off Single spade white wire under colum still has zero power if I tie red and black single spade leads under colum together-this will send power to the green wire side of the flasher If the single green under colum is tied to the solid white there is still no power if I direct or hot wire a lead to the single green spade lead under colum from turn signal loom arm assy both left and right turn signals will light up left or right as they are chosen including dash icons both will illuminate left or right, but no flashing occurs thanks for everyone's continued input
  5. Today I checked power as per beermanpetes suggestion. I have power at BOTH terminals on the flasher lead with the two leads. Jumping both together still did nothing.
  6. I will put a few hours in tomorrow and report back in tomorrow night. Thanks for all the replies. It is puzzling why the diferent color leads can plug into one another though but the molded plastic 4/6 pin ones do not.
  7. I am hoping someone has a photo or three of their conections, as you can see several of these single leaf ones are tied into diferent color wires. The challenge was the car was in pieces when I got it so I have no guidelines to be sure these odd single ones are hooked up right. A photo of working 73 set ups will help a lot. Thanks for everyone's contributions.
  8. Beer man Pete the pictures were of my present possibly wrong connections, What is Not working are the turn signals, left nor right. The headlights and high beam are working fine, hazard all four are fine. There is zero power anywhere on the turn signal section of the look that plugs into them. Thanks
  9. Sorry upload missed this pic.
  10. Hi guys here's the photos of my combo signal wiring dilemma. It's a 06/73 production. As you can see the main plug is connected but I have no power at that conection
  11. Hi guys I need some help. No power at turn signal lever its 73z manual when I picked up car it was a bare shell only, all apart, does anyone have a photo you can share of where the wires from the combo switches meet up? I have the signal switch plugged in to the right plug on the main harness of dash which looks like it's a square plug with 6 pins, but there's zero power there. And zero at the lever. There are a couple of single wires unplugged like the key buzzer wire which right now I'm not worried about. I think some of them crossover from headlight combo switch to the tsig side, but colors don't match under column. The other lights all fine, flashers and horn are working. Fuses all good. Any help appreciated.

    I have a few still here i did not send to the crusher a few weeks ago with a ton of suspensions and body shells when cleaning out one of my Z storage buildings. I think its out of an 82 Turbo or a 78, I am in PA, let me know if you can use it.
  15. where did you get it KTH?
  16. when you add up the transport registering it, cost of hotel, airfare? or detail/prep and food, and the percentage the Sharks took from him in commission, maybe 8500 can go back in his pocket. Guys i said this before we all need to pay up and not be cheap for parts and cars to offset what we have in them, loving them for what they are aside its the only way the prices will go up. Any of us would have paid him 8500 right?
  17. should it be a 225 MM or larger? What brand are ypou guys using on higher HP? I am not sure why this one failed with under 1k miles on it.

  19. Hi Guys its time for a clutch change, i put in a 5 speed from a 78 in it last summer and its slipping when i get on it, my 72 Z has original Racer brown cam mod, big exhaust no header, and the 5 speed. Its lowered, 36k original miles run hard when i drive it. Any advise on a stronger one and source for it will be appreciated.

    Your dedication and love for this 240Z says you need to be comended and you should copyright your video. Looking forward to seeing its progress, nice to see you using the finest Sikkens on it!
  21. Not only is the hood scoop just plain bad, why didn't they replace the carbs with early ones while they had it apart and put new decals on the aircleaner?

    I think I have a few air flow meters still in some boxes headed to ebay when i get time, let me know if you need one before that.

    If its a late 72 it should have the extra fuse conector and if it has not fallen off look for a silver decal, I have seen some that said fuel pump on them.
