My manual is for a 2004 sedan so cant remember if rear eye level brake light is same for the coupe but I am guessing they would be.

If other brake lights work then probably not the fuse as manual indicates there is only one fuse.

This light is an LED so may be difficult to procure in oz. If you are lucky though it may just be the connection.

For sedans access is via rear parcel shelf which involves rear seat removal(easy) and then parcel shelf finisher and then high mount stop lamp finisher.

Good luck!

i've done a serch but coud'nt find how to get at it

Why dont you download your own manual. Save it to disk or on your computer as I have.

Following is a link to G35 manuals I found two years ago. They are for the US model infinity G35 but apart from being LH drive and different security systems most basic stuff is the same as our cars.

you need it for a sedan. the coupe is entirely different. find a 2003 sedan one. that will be somewhat correct. short of getting the proper jap manuals for it thats as close as you will get.

Ive got the 2003 6spd manual coupe and mine did the same thing, just work the 3rd brakelight sideways a bit and remove it, turn it over and tighten the connectors. The LED wont die on u, its just the connectors that need some TLC.

    • Huh, wonder why it blew then. I never really beat on the car THAT hard lol I dailyed it and the turbo blew after 6 months
    • That's odd, it works fine here. Try loading it on a different device or browser? It's Jack Phillips JDM, a Skyline wrecker in Victoria. Not the cheapest, but I have found them helpful to find obscure parts in AU. https://jpjdm.com/shop/index.php
    • Yeah. I second all of the above. The only way to see that sort of voltage is if something is generating it as a side effect of being f**ked up. The other thing you could do would be to put a load onto that 30V terminal, something like a brakelamp globe. See if it pulls the voltage away comepletely or if some or all of it stays there while loaded. Will give you something of an idea about how much danger it could cause.
    • I would say, you've got one hell of an underlying issue there. You're saying, coils were fully unplugged, and the fuse to that circuit was unplugged, and you measured 30v? Either something is giving you some WILD EMI, and that's an induced voltage, OR something is managing to backfeed, AND that something has problems. It could be something like the ECU if it takes power from there, and also gets power from another source IF there's an internal issue in the ECU. The way to check would be pull that fuse, unplug the coils, and then probe the ECU pins. However it could be something else doing it. Additionally, if it is something wired in, and that something is pulsing, IE a PWM circuit and it's an inductive load and doesnt have proper flyback protection, that would also do it. A possibility would be if you have something like a PWM fuel pump, it might be giving flyback voltages (dangerous to stuff!). I'd put the circuit back into its "broken" state, confirm the weird voltage is back, and then one by one unplug devices until that voltage disappears. That's a quick way to find an associated device. Otherwise I'd need to look at the wiring diagrams, and then understand any electrical mods done.   But you really should not be seeing the above issue, and really, it's indicating something is failing, and possibly why the fuse blew to begin with.
