S13 wheel well wire harness help! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

sked707 · 02-27-2013, 08:56 AM

Ok so I got a flat this morning on my way to work on my front passenger side & the tire got so bad that
it chewed up my wire harness(no inner fender). Anybody know what those wires are for &/or where they lead to?? I'd like to know so that I won't mess anything up while driving. I checked the fsm but can't decipher it plus I also searched on here but found nothing. Its a 90 hb single cam. Car starts fine & I haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary so far. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Find a new harness. If you can't do the wiring, keep the solution simple.

^^ I second that, if you need a new harness I have one.

Yeah for sure I'm gonna need a new harness. I'm pretty comfortable to rewire it again, but I'm not comfortable driving the car the way it is right now.

this harness connect with almost anything in front of the dash except the engine

headlamp, horns, wipers, washer pump, cruise control...

like stated above. i would replace it. luckily you found it right away
i once had this problem when i first lowered my car and didnt mind that harness. my tire shaved it off little by little, and one day driving in the rain i shorted out all kinds off wires. and had a mini fire. (luckily nothing to big).. it can be a nightmare (which it was) if you find out the hard way

Thanks for the feedback guys! I Feel a little better knowing that those wires aren't engine related. Damn tire wiped out almost everything...wires, hoses, even one of the washer pumps is gone.

Shit, you dont have to replace it, just need to make sure each wire is insulated again. Fix it and then relocated the harness up in the fender.
