Need wiring help

[Mick]

Hey i need a favor from someone that has an r33 and a multimeter.

I need you to remove the gear stick surround and unplug the cigar lighter plug and the plug for the cigar lighter light and check to see if there is continuity between the light (red wire with blue stripe) and the black earth wire.

This will only take a few minutes but i will realy apreciate it.

Thankyou ..

Why would you need to do this?

[Mick]

im doing alot of rewiring in the car to make it neater and i found it strange that there was continuity between them

Ok just checked it out for you. With everything off there is nothing however if you turn the headlights on it pulls about 11v as you would expect.

Hope that helps

thanks for that but i need to check for continuity not power .. u will have it on your multimeter, its the one that makes a beep when the 2 probes touch, i need to check if it beeps when the probes are touching the red/blue and the black wires .. check when the ignition is off.

Well i checked every setting on the multi meter and at no point did it beep while touching them together??? I did a bit of a google on continuity and unfortunatly i don't think my little multi meter has this setting

[Mick]

some multimeters dont beep on continuity.

But will display OL on the screen and when the probes are touched together the display will goto 000 to indicate continuity

I need the answer ASAP

I will send a copy of the Nissan Fast Software for the first person who knows what there doing and checks for continuity between the them.

Another way instead of using the cigar lighter is to pop the boot and unplug the white tail light plug and check for continuity on the red/blue stripe wire and the black wire.
