    Stop light problem......

    Using a multimeter test for continuity across green, green/white and green/red. I presume you have no knowledge of what your uncle's modifications involved? It's definitely possible he changed a couple things in such a way that nothing's going to work "by the book" until things are first...

    Stop light problem......

    Read my edit... I was thinking white/green... sorry. Regardless, the only place for you to have a mixed problem with those two circuits is at the failure module's harness or in the taillamp housing.

    Stop light problem......

    EDIT: Ok, I see it.. switch side. Still, I think it's miswired... somewhere there's a short and a break.

    Stop light problem......

    Screwed up rewire... you jumped the brake and the tail wiring. If you turn on the head lights do the brake lights turn on?

    MAJOR thanks due to SupraRX7Nut!

    You think you look high in that one? Oh, I've got a better one.... just didn't know if you'd appreciate it. :biglaugh: Definitely up WAY too late that night... I didn't get home until what? 7AM? After the 50mile drive home.... gasp!

    Stop light problem......

    I'm confused.... not too hard to accomplish today... ;) So, are you saying the lights at the rear of the car DO light up when you press the brake pedal? Are you expecting the brake light on the dash to light up or something? The dash brake indicator only indicates a problem with the brake...

    If you've indicated it I missed it.... have you tested the switch?

    Just grumbling... What have you forgotten to do when working on your car?

    Heh, when we put my steering wheel on we did check that the wheels were pointing forward... then I drove it and the wheel was almost 90º off... felt VERY odd to drive that way. I've forgotten the oil cap before as well... got a little messy as I didn't notice for a day. :( I've yet to...

    MAJOR thanks due to SupraRX7Nut!

    Heh, yeah... actually, if not for the need to give my thanks to guy who gave up his garage for two weeks (we did a LOT of stuff, not just the turbo) I probably wouldn't have said anything.... and I've got some pics... just not sure if they're really post worthy.

    MAJOR thanks due to SupraRX7Nut!

    I agree completely! For me the wonderful support of people including jdub, jetjock, ij., drjonez, turbobob and so on are the only reason I still own this car... or at least the only reason I still care about it. I was surprised when I came back and saw the thumbs.... WTF? Bad idea IMO.

    MAJOR thanks due to SupraRX7Nut!

    Bwahahahahahaha!!! priceless.... glad it wasn't me.... Yes, 1J ( ;) ) thanks to you and jdub for all the additional advice and suggestions... and laying my mind at ease regarding the oil seal. :D BTW, you're always so quick to respond.... do you ever sleep?

    MAJOR thanks due to SupraRX7Nut!

    I'm not going anywhere. I've still got a 7M-GE. Yes, always good to have friends you can count on!

    Just grumbling... What have you forgotten to do when working on your car?

    A long time ago another member and I cracked a water pump housing by tightening the bolt to the length instead of the torque spec.... :( Same member and I also pulled a dash half way out of a car to find the source of a power issue.... a bad fuse. :3d_frown: Dumbo, I'm liking it, but...

    MAJOR thanks due to SupraRX7Nut!

    Well, I wasn't going to post anything, but I owe having a place to work, invaluable assistance and excellent moral support to one guy here I am. I spent the last two weeks working with SupraRX7Nut on replacing my heater core, rewiring some stuff, adding an oil cooling system AND adding a...

    Just grumbling... What have you forgotten to do when working on your car?

    Well, just finished a LOT of work on my car with the help of SupraRX7Nut... Thanks Andy! Heater core, N/A-T, alarm rewire, oil cooler and thermostat install and other small things. I picked the car up from Sparky's awesome, huge garage last night. I ran the car to make sure nothing was...

    Alarm with built in turbo timer

    Check your local laws before using a turbo timer or remote start. There are places where it is even a criminal offense to leave your car running and unattended for any reason. They've really started cracking down in Denver a couple winters ago.... really sucks too, I love my remote start on...

    Putting 7MGTE Exhaust On 7MGE?

    I don't know of any Magnaflow radiators which come with a silencer... it's the kind of thing which I've only ever seen included with coffee can style mufflers. It might be possible to find an exhaust tip which comes with one... never seen one though. 3" by itself will be stupid loud... it's...
