Mike kZ Posted June 25, 2001 Share Posted June 25, 2001 I just hooked up all my wiring and the battery. The parking lights and brake lights work, but the head lights don't come on? Fuses are good, is there a ground I missed? BTW it's a 240Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted June 25, 2001 Share Posted June 25, 2001 hey mike disconnect your headlights and put a volt meter on the wires to see if you have anything. disconnect switch and check for power there. if power at switch but not after then ohm out your switch. if the switch is good the go for the man hunt for the ground wires. hope this helps.

Guest Anonymous Posted June 25, 2001 Share Posted June 25, 2001 ok i reread your post again. yes, it sounds like you have missed a ground somewhere or else they have broken ground wire somewhere. try checking for a short in the headlight wires.
