Hi The infill panel third brake light has an electrical female socket that cannot be bypassed due to electrical straps fitted to it. So I am after the name of the male connector that goes into it so I we can chase one up to wire it in. This is on post 94 models I believe (that had infill panels) It is a two pin male connection and the pins are horizontal - havent seen this connector anywhere else on the Z. Does anyone know the name of this unusual connector? thanks
the normal 3rd brake light wiring loom that went into your series 1 spoiler should fit the infill brake light.
no that doesnt fit - see these pics Hi No - it doesnt - its completely different sorry here are the pics here is an overall view of the infill - the connector is highlighted with the red box - you can see the connector straps that prevent it from being wired in. here is a top view of the connector here is the connector - sorry about the pic - its the best I could do - note I have highlighted the two pins with red - note they are horizontal hope this helps
Looking at the photos i believe it would be possible to strip the plug off the little bit of wire/terminals and solder then heat shrink new cable to make it long enough to put a universal plug on it. Someone with basic soldering skills should be able to do it quite easily. Cheers Dave
prefer name of plug ideally Hi dave Whilst its difficult but possible - doing that wouldnt really make it a stable solid connection base as there would be loose hanging parts such as the plug itself - hence really prefer the name of the plug if anyone knows - that way I can get a professional job done without worrying about modding it. It must be out there somewhere
That plug is the same as the one that is in the hatch that goes to the third brake light on a stock s1 spoiler.
cheers Thats two of you that have said that now. Maybe my spoiler is an S2 then? Cheers - will make it easier
No. Either your pins are bent or someone has put on a different plug on the car side for some dumbass reason. From factory they are the same plug for the infill or the wing tbl.
No I have not had a sex change yet! Hi No I have not had a sex change yet! :rofl: My account is my account. When my hubby cant find answers on the other 300zx sites, he asks me if I can help, so I post here myself so he doesnt have to put up with keyboard warriors like you that need to find a better pastime, than trashing my threads. If you wish to speak to my husband please P.M. me direct as I am only too happy to give you the details for contacting him on the 300zx.com and the 300zx.uk site "Please don't hijack my threads and trash them" with your troublemaking inuendo in future.
