Wiring problems - no indicators or brake lights

[Dale]

Nice one Dale, so you fixed that then - just use the indicators less.

Well never enough to be rude or inconsiderate of course

If it was at the NEC last year then it might have been either Jon Newlyn (with his very early Orange 240z) or John Jacklin with his 240z Samuri who where on the Classic Z stand

ah yes, it was John and Jon and another chap

I haven’t put much time into this brake/hazard issue yet, indicators work, swapped flasher relays and proved they both work, found brake light switch is faulty, but shorting the wires doesn’t turn on the brake light, have 12v at brake light switch and at hazard flasher, when I turn on hazards, I lose 12v at break light switch, when I jumper brake light switch, I lose 12v at hazard flasher. I notice the fuse box is bad, moving the connector the voltage is up and down, new one on order along with brake switch, but don’t think that is the complete fix!

if your 240z is like my 280z i would take a close look at the hazard switch . a bust hazard with not let the indicators work have fun chris

Yes, that is the next port of call, just getting to it seems to be an adventure!
