2016 Base Fender turn signals
 
Hi,
Just recently got a 2016 Base. I notice the fender turn signals doesnt light up when i signal. Do the base come with it? If not, would it be possible to hook one up?

I'd imagine that the connector is back behind it. It could just be a matter of just getting ones that are wired for it but I'm not entirely sure

To check u can remove one
I believe u need to push marker to the front of the car and pull right side towards you.

cooltoy 03-20-2016 05:48 PM

Both don't light up?

There's a previous thread on this.

The new base models do not have indicating Zs and base autos don't come with paddles

Ohh i see. Would it be hard to connect it?

dvboy 03-20-2016 09:30 PM

Does anyone know if a newer base has the connector in behind ready to go??

I'll buy the markers from you if you decide to upgrade.

I need to see if its prewired

cooltoy 03-21-2016 08:48 AM

Of course.

Even if it's not, it is probably the same marker as the sport, so all you'd need is to run wires to it. But just in case Nissan was dumb enough to make a separate non electric side-marker, I am ready.

izzueeek 03-25-2016 07:29 PM

I just took off the Z side markers and it is wired. So I am guessing the Z indicators on the base dont have LEDs in it. So I would need to buy one that has

cooltoy 03-25-2016 08:13 PM

Can't you just put a bulb in? Are the wires connected to anything or are they just loose?

They're led lights so no actual bulbs to change out. :|

cooltoy 03-25-2016 08:33 PM

The whole thing is an LED?

Trips 03-25-2016 09:11 PM

Yes.

Op may want to see if he can borrow an actual one that works to see if it'll light up if the wiring is there.

Kinda stupid for Nissan decided to put in dummy side markers but again they're already doing that with the dummy rear light. :shakes head:

cooltoy 03-25-2016 11:10 PM

That are not that expensive. $50 for a pair on e-bay.

izzueeek 03-26-2016 12:20 AM

Yah whole tHing is led.

cooltoy 03-26-2016 12:51 AM

Let me know please when you make the switch. I am interested in getting your blank one if the deal is right.

It only uses a couple of leds to flash the whole side marker.

Wow,I am a little surprised Nissan would go to the trouble of making a separate side marker(no light) for the base and still have it wired in.I removed the fender badge on my 2016 base to see this......

Do u know where to get some that lights up

cooltoy 04-02-2016 01:29 PM

Ebay. There are lots of them for sale there.

dvboy 04-02-2016 04:17 PM

I went the extra step and got a wiring kit that keeps the side fender lights on all the time(when headlight are on).Didn't really like it at first as it was a little bright and distracting,so I wired in a resistor to tone the brightness down and I think I will leave it now.

cooltoy 04-02-2016 05:47 PM

Dvboy, do you still have your stock ones lying around?

Yes

cooltoy 04-02-2016 06:33 PM

Would you be willing to sell me one?

dvboy 04-02-2016 07:28 PM

Might consider selling the set,but selling one does not interest me.If u are interested,pm me.
