HiYaAll.
All electrical appear to be working now except for the wipers.
Problems:fuel, tach guages, turn signals not working, volt guage would read 12V- appears to not be charging.
First for turn signal I took apart the hazard switch and cleaned it up, broken wire inside- resoldered.
For the other I unscrewed the fuse panel and cleaned up the prongs with sandpaper. Then took a pair of needle nose pliers and squeezed the prongs together to tighten up the connections. Then put dilectric grease on all new fuses and replaced. Now just to get the wipers workin so I dont have to use rain-x ..

Hey Ron,
I have a '77 280Z and I just got my wipers working. I found that my problem was a bad fuse ( sounds dumb right? but wait) I took all the fuses out and did a visible check they all LOOKED good.After fighting this thing for months I finally did the unthinkable, I checked the wiper fuse with a continuity tester and found it was junk. I now keep it as a reminder. Zee on dude!...Bert-- Portland, Or.
