What Is That Light

[r33ii]

Hey everyone, ive just bought myself a r33 series 2 and i have a question, on the dash (right beside the speedo) there are a set of 7 lights, the one furthest to the left on the bottom row shines green whenever i start the car up, any ideas what ths light is for, i was thinking possibly a warning to do the timing belt as the car has just turned over 100000kms, the timing belt has been done however??? any help would be good, cheers

Weird. I have a green LED in the same spot as the ones in that picture that does the same thing; comes on when the Fog lights do. It just serves as a reminder that the foggies are on, just in case your Skyline doesn't beep-nag you to death if you forget.

Rip out the cluster and follow the wires, see where they go.

might be a compliance thing as it sure sticks out like dogs nuts.

Sorry to dig this back up, but I just got a car and it has the green light too. On all the time, etc. Can't figure out what it's meant to mean.

Has anyone figured it out yet? Mine is a S2 as well.

^^ Looks like its a compliance thing as theres no way thats factory! Looks like shit!

Toyota Hiace's have a timing belt light, it flicks on every 100,000km, and to reset it, you take the cluster out and move a small screw from one hole to another, re-setting the timer for another 100,000km... moving the screw back again when it clicks ANOTHER 100K and so on.......

After chasing it up, its meant to be a foglight on warning light. On all the time means the wiring was done wrong. It's put on as part of compliance due to the ADR requirement.

Wow, Australian has some ass requirements for jap cars!

Pretty sure the thing beeps at you same as the headlights doesnt it? Because it switches the park lights on too.

Well, does in mine anyway and i dont have fog lights! The switch just turns on the parkers.
