A few really quick wiring questions with pics. - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Am working on the wiring in my car and came across three quick questions.

1) This is my rear defrost. It is an on/off push button. I would like to replace this with a very simple cheap on off switch to match the rest of my switches. With a cheap switch there is a neg and a pos and you attach one to each end of the switch, but at the back of this thing there is 6 wires! What do I do to make it a regular switch?

2) The shop that fixed my Rad support pulled out my Turbo timer for some reason. I purchased the car with this Turbo timer installed already. I know where the large plug plugs into but do you know what the single wire and smaller plug should attach too? I can't fine any matching connections on the whole dash (maybe it was not properly installed in the first place).

3) Will my ECU be ok sitting here?

The ECU looks good? Like it'll be fine?

Can anyone help me with the turbo timer? The dash is about to go back on and I need this in first.

the single wire is for japenese vehicles(not used) and the smaller connector connects into I believe the ebrake in some way which is not necessary either. Just connect the big one to the ignition jumper harness and you will be fine.
