blinking side emblem on base

celiboom · 11-23-2016, 08:55 AM

okok let me explain, I tought you all said that the harnes was there "not connected"

the part where i'm surprised is that the non lighting emblem have a connector and everything is connected.

I mean it's like having non powered seat "connected" because the high end model have it powered

And finally, I speak french, my english is kinda bad, don't need to be rude with me. I tought I would help the community on this one but I guess I should not have report back...

Think of how Nissan would build a car. They make the same body, the same engine, the same wiring harness for all 370Zs. They put it together and then based on demand or schedule decide if it going to be a base or a sport. At that point they would put different brakes on, different seats, different side-markers, different wings, etc. They do not make a separate harness for base and and another for the rest, its just one harness. IT would not be cost effective.

It's OK. Now we all know.

They probably connected it so that the connector on the harness does not get water in it and fry the whole electrical system. Cheaper then making a cap.

As has been mentioned, the same wiring harness is probably used for all models, so maybe it's to keep the loose connector from rattling around.

Cooltoy's corrosion-prevention theory sounds reasonable.

how to what? remove and reinstall blinker?

you literally just have to push toward the font of the vehicule and then pull, disconnect and reconnect

I removed 3 screws from my inner fender to by able to push it with my hand but that was not necessary
