I own a 1990 nissan Cefiro.

One side (RH side) of my tail lights will not work but the brake lights are fine.

I have checked the fuses, the bulbs and replaced the relay but they still wont work!.

I put a test light in the bulb socket and there not getting power but the brake light still work fine when the pedal is pressed.

What the hell is going on with it?

A wiring diagram for a A31 cefiro would be helpful to if anyone has one?

They use a twin filament globe - 1 filament for the brakes, 1 filament for tail lights. That is why the brake light works, but the tail light doesn't.

If there is no power to the tail light terminal, then either you have blown the fuse for the RH tail lamp, or the power wire to the RH tail lamp is broken somewhere (have fun finding that one!)

      Brakes definitely won't make him faster. They only slow you down. 😛

      Carb issues - E15S

      By GregosM10 · Posted

      Hey, I understand this is a skyline forum but I was hoping someone might be able to help me out here. Got an ‘84 M10 Prairie with an E15S that I’m trying to get running again after replacing a head gasket. I’m having some struggles with vacuum lines after replacing a couple perished ones. They’re all set up like in the diagram I’ve attached. I’ve tried starting the motor and my carb backfires a bit but no luck getting it to run.      Theres a 2nd port on the back of the carb that isn’t mentioned in the diagrams, right next to what I believe would be the idle screw (sorry I’m no good with carbs) - should this be attached to any lines?   any help would be greatly appreciated, I’m sick of pulling my hair out trying to figure this thing out 🤝🏼

      If the current relationship is between the diff and the speedo, then no, you will not need a speed sensor in that hole in the gearbox. If the car were an R33 GTST, or an R34 GT-T, then it would need a speed sensor in there. Because that's what those cars have/need. If the car were an R32, then it will need a cable drive cobbled together from a Navara speedo drive, because R32s can't handle an electronic speed signal to the speedo.

      Just to follow up on this.  Will the speedo work with this? Like to have plugged speed sensor on this trans and still using one on diff from N/A (open) diff?
