Just got a question it's the middle tail light the wiring setup I know the solid black wire is ground ..there's green with a white stripe ? And brown with white stripe? Can you tell me what the two wires are ?

 

I looked at the wiring diagrams for the 95, 96, 98, 99, 2000 & 2001. None of the diagrams show the colors you posted.

All the diagrams show black for ground, red/green stripe for brake light and red/blue stripe for tail lights. This covers the side markers, the license plate light, hi-mount stop light as well as all the trunk lid and fender lights.

Don't know what you have.

 

Which is the power wire ? Green with yellow or green with white stripe ?

 

Can you post another picture this time showing more of the harness connector on the left side.

Have you got an aftermarket spoiler on the car?

 

I think the wires shown maybe part of the harness before the branch to the tail light.... maybe for the trunk opener or security.

That is why the ground is branched.

 

Does are the wires.that led to middle tail light socket

 

Nissan does not tap wires like that. When Nissan taps wires, they do it in a connector, they crimp 2 wires together with the connector pin.

Plus, Nissan does not make wire harnesses like that. There is always a connector on both ends.

 

can you take a picture of the connector those wires connect to?

 

This we're I clip it off .. the inside of the connecter was messed up were light would go on and off if I wiggle the wire ..

 

Thanks for the help bro. When you said that and knowing what I already knew, I went back and looked closer. The wiring for the entire tail light comes in and goes to a plug that splits it out to the correct bulbs.

Looking closer at that, I found my answer. The wires for the tail light and brake light coming into that main plug are the colors you and that diagram I found. Red/black and red/white. Coming out of the plug and going to the actual bulb and plug they change to Green/Yellow and Green/White. Followed the original colors and hooked up the resistors.
No more bulb out when braking or when the lights are on!!!

Thanks for your help! Dennis this what I just read so got to be the back light

 

You got t fixed... good work. A little confusion along the way but you got it fixed and that's all that matters.

 

Dennis s the green and yellow are power the green and white is for the tail light .. just check out the wiring with a meter... there you see the white connecter into the harness..
