I did something I shouldnt have, s13 silvia wiring.

[rhd_sw20]

I wanted to fully relocate my wiring harness to get it away from the moisture and snow here in Canada eh, So i decided to cut it, and re wire everything in the engine bay. Just having some troubles matching everything up, and was looking for full wiring diagrams for the S13 Silvia. I found a page with links for s14 silvia and other usdm s13s, but all the links are dead. If anyone can help that would be great

Dont bother flaming me about this, I dont care.

[Sir]

where did you cut it at?

But going through FSM would be easiest

[rhd_sw20]

Cut it because it was already shredded through from my winters. I replaced all the corroded and wet wires. But now Im just having trouble with duplicate wires/grounds and trying to find a 75Watt fuse for my ALT that blew.

[Sir]

not why, but where. or at what point.
there are couple of harnesses.
if its the driver side wheels (seem like it from your post) than lookup the S13 fsm, as its not engine harness.

You should have cut a few wires, solder them and cut some more and so on. Cutting all the wires at onces is murder!!! Good luck with your self made project. :)

you'll be able to find 75watt fuses for the alt at local junkyards that carry 240sx's .. for me it was the only place i could find one at .. im guessing you already know where the fuse is located on the car so it wouldnt be too hard to find .. or just go around the neighborhood ... pop some hoods .. and snatch one .. haaha

J30's also carry those fuses

30 dollars at the dealership, and why would you cut all of the wires at the same time? Ive done it before, and it is so much easier going one at a time.

[Rusker]

Ouch. That's going to be a project and a half.

Just take to match up the wires while using the FSM. Make sure to correctly attach the wires the first time so you don't have to go back to find the problem.

Good luck.

whats fsm? factory service manual?
Its the harness on the drivers side(rhd) that goes in the wheel well. I cut it right in the middle, the top of the fender.
I found a fuse from nissan, only $13, so thats easy, but now im just having trouble figuring out why its not working.
We matched all the wires to the best of our ability, and did proper connections on everything, but now the problem is that Im not getting any power to acc.
I have my interior dash lights, and my clock, but I dont have any power to cd, gauges, aftermarket gauges, etc... and the car wont crank obviously. Anyone have a link to the FSM?

[rhd_sw20]

Well I just did a voltage drop test for the main power wires going from the battery to the fuse box on the inside of the car. I am not loosing any power from the battery, through any of the new wiring, but I am loosing full voltage from the new connection to the fuse box.


any ideas......

Buy a new harness and start over?

[marshun]

at this point, i'd say you should just buy another harness. it will take a pretty good amount of time to fix that one.

[vodka2]

buy a new harness you can find em as low as like 45$ on the internet.....

where? show me please.

[Flybert]

Find someone with a silvia front clip and get the body harness from the SMJ on forward. Would be a hell of a lot easier.

[rhd_sw20]

Ended up fixing the problem, the fuse for the igniton was wanky, the wiring that I did was fine, everything works now and Ill know I wont rub through that damn harness ever again
