Bullshit.

Those circuits dont even go into the ECU. The alternator (battery charge) light signal comes straight from the alternator, the low brake fluid/ebrake signal goes directly to the hand brake and the BMC.

What else, Chun Li throws her bracelets too right?

Mike, it's actually true. Search the subject, it's been talked about and confirmed. Hell, I even experienced it when I first bought my S13. Had an incredibly worn belt and once the car was on both the brake light and the battery light would come on simultaneously. Changed the alternator belt and all was perfect in the world.

considering that ive taken apart the ENTIRE wiring harness of my 1990 S13 240SX and my 1998 S13 180SX, i will say that 100% there is no fucking combo code.


i took apart and traced each and every wire, and i can specifically tell you that the brake light circuit is completely separate from the alternator charge circuit, and none of them go through an ecu or anthing advanced enough to throw a combo code.


there is only ONE person on this forum that i would even remotely consider listening to when it comes to wiring, and that would be russ. he is the only one who truly knows the car as inside and out as i do when it comes to wiring and such.


so no, there is no combo code.

When I unplug the power wire (the one that switches it on) to the alternator it pops on the brake light. There has to be some sort of connection for this to happen-although I'm not saying it is ECU controlled. Also, too low, and too high voltage coming from the alternator pop on the brake light...not sure why- but it happens.

You never bothered to look at the FSM?

91-94 FSM EL-46 Last portion of it you see the connection, bulb check relay.
