Nissan Pickup Questions and Answers
- Troubleshooting Right Brake Light Not Functioning on a Trailer when Tail Lights are On
- If I am understanding you correctly it sounds like when you test your trailer with a 12 volt power source all of the tail light functions work correctly, but then when you connect the trailer to your tow vehicle is when you see problems.
If this is the case then it sounds like the problem is on the vehicle side of the wiring and the trailer is good. You could further confirm this if you wanted by trying a different tow vehicle to see if the problem persists or goes away.

- Recommendations for an Electric Radiator Fan for a 1984 Datsun 720 2.4L V6
- In regards to fans, it is not the size that matters it is the airflow. Electric fans are not necessarily vehicle specific. If you have # D16908 that you have referenced, it puts out 450 cubic feet of air per minute. This is not very much and a fan that can generate more would be needed.
Typically, a 6 cylinder motor requires 1,600 to 2,000 cubic feet per minute.
The fans that you could use largely depends on the space you have in the engine compartment to mount them. I recommend getting t

- Availability of a Trailer Wiring Harness To Fit A 1986 Nissan D21 Hardbody Truck

- Parts Need to Flat Tow a 1989 Nissan Pickup Truck
- It is possible that there could be some drilling involved when installing Roadmaster Base Plates, # 305-1, if a hole for the included hardware is not present. Otherwise, if that hole is present, it is bolt on application. There should not be any machining that needs to be done or special requirements. As long as you take your time on the bumpy washboard road, there should not be any problems.
For a compatible tow bar, I recommend the Roadmaster Tracker, # RM-020. You will also need safety ca

- Parts Needed to Wire Lighting Functions When Flat Towing a 1997 Nissan Pickup Truck
- The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness, # 118353, is for the Nissan if it were towing a trailer and needed to power the trailer lights. Instead, there are a couple of different options for when you are towing the Nissan and need lights.
Since you mentioned that you wanted to power the Nissan lights, you will want to use a diode kit, # RM-154. Installing this kit will put the turn signals and brake lights on the same bulb and the running lights will be on a separate bulb. If you want the turn signal

- Will My Tow Bar Cross Bar Work with a Roadmaster Base Plate Kit # 317-2 on a 1997 Nissan Pickup
- If the tow bar you have is a Roadmaster tow bar or you have a cross bar adapter to Roadmaster base plates then, yes, the Roadmaster Classic Base Plate Kit, item # 317-2, for your 1997 Nissan Pickup will work with it. You will most likely need a set of car side quick disconnects, item # RM-222, to connect the cross bar to the base plates, if you did not retain the car side brackets from your 1991 Nissan.
If you have a different brand of tow bar, and do not have a Roadmaster tow bar adapter, se

- Diagnosing Trailer Wiring Problem on 1995 Nissan Pickup
- A ground problem is a possibility, but having an insufficient ground connection usually causes the trailer lamps to behave erratically, or to work properly until the vehicle headlights are switched on.
The best place to start would be to use a circuit tester like part # 3808 and test the trailer connector as each function is tested. This will tell you if the problem exists on the vehicle or the trailer.
If your testing shows that the trailer connector is functioning properly, then you kno

- Left Turn Signal Causes all Trailer Lights to Flash and Right Turn Signal Does Nothing
- If you have the Tow Ready Wiring Harness # 118353 installed on your 1997 Nissan Pickup you will want to check the 4-flat connector with a circuit tester like the Quickee Tester # 3808 and make sure that the wiring on the vehicle is correct and that you have a good ground.
It sounds like a ground problem on the trailer is what is causing your lighting problem. You will want to check that the white ground wire on the trailers 4-way is properly grounded to a good, clean area of bare metal on the

- 1992 Nissan King Cab Truck Requires a Converter
- Because your Nissan uses separate tail light circuits for the brake lights and turn signals, a tail light converter is needed. Typically, trailer brake lamps and turn signals share the same circuit, one bulb in the tail light preforms both functions. Because of this, a tail light converter is needed to combine the separate turn signal and brake light circuits on the truck.
We offer a T-1 Connector, part # 118353 that is reasonably priced and very easy to install. The T-1 would install by disc
