Hi, I'm new here and new to owning a zed.. I have just bought what I have been told is tomonator 1990 300zx tt.
Got it home tonight and been going over her. Found some issues. The first being the boost gauge on the dash isn't reading anything. Just sits in the centre on the 0 line.
Next I switch on the headlights to find firstly that the dash doesn't light up, secondly that the sidelights come on (round ones) but not the headlights themselves (rectangle ones) now I do eat my carrots but i can see this being a little dim at night.
Has anyone any idea what this could be. Forgot to mention that the rectangle lights work when put on main beam but not dipped.
Also, under the dash light panel on the right of the column, where the power light comes on when gearbox set to power. There is what looks like an aftermarket rocker switch. It illuminates when the headlights are on but when switched doesn't seem to do anything??
Hoping I haven't just bought an electrical mine field here!?
Other than a few minor scabs appearing, the car drives very well.. Turbos give a nice kick and box is quite smooth..
Nice car but it's got the gremlins about it at the moment..
So pardon the pun, but can anyone throw any light on my dash and headlight situation?
Any help greatfully received!
And Tomonator, get in touch please mate, I'd love to have a chat and get some history on the car..
