i'm just full of questions tonight... there's a female connector taped to my fuel rail on the tranny end and nothing nearby that looks like it goes with... also my dist. cap has what looks like a connection you'd find on the back of a speaker sticking out the top of the dist. housing but nothing near it to connect to it.... and then there's the fog lights... there under the bumper and the switch in-dash lights-up when you push it but the black box of relays that has th foglight label on top has no relay inside... WTF??! can somebody help me here? anybody near austin with the same engine so i can see it ?

All those things are absolutely normal. The lonely plug is just not used in that model car. The dist spade connector is unknown to me, but I've never seen one plugged in. Probably used on another model with the same dist. The foglights in the SE-R are a sort-of aftermarket thing. They were like a dealer-installed option, so the relay is usually a single one screwed to the firewall somewhere (bosch) and the wires for the switch are usually wire-tapped to somewhere on the steering column. The relay gets power from a dedicated wire on the battery positive with an inline fuse. The relay location labeled as such from the factory is always empty. May have been used in foreign-market sunnys for the factory airdam lights.

I think the tab on the dist. is for some sort of ground. I have never seen it hooked to anything either.

What year SE-R are we talking about here? I know B13's fog lights are put in at the factory. They have a factory provided fuse in the fuse box and factory provided relay in the relay box to the left of the battery. No inline fuses or goofy mounted relays. So if you've got the switch, and fuse in place but no relay then someone took it out. If you need a relay I have one I can sell you. I'm glad you asked about that dist. ground clip because I was wondering about that myself.

not my 91...it was the same thing as andris said...i wonder if it was sortof a last minitue thing on the earlier models nissan decided to add on

It's the same thing on my 92 SE-R, production date 08/91.
The fog-lights seems to be added at the dealer, not from the factory, as the wirings are a messy add-ons.

Yikes, my bad, I thought all B13 SE-R's came with OEM fog lights.

you guys have a point... there is a 15 amp fuse in-line just off the positive pole on the battery but i still can't figure out where to look next... like i said in the beginning, i got the lights in the bumper, the button on the dash(which lights up when engaged) and the fuse on the battery... i'm not sure what to look for next.

I'm pretty sure all B13's have that inline fuse right off the battery. Hey Blair and JCCT, do you guys have a spot marked for fog lamps in your relay box to the left of the battery?

On my 93 SE-R, the wiring of the fog-light switch behind the center bezel is neatly boils down to a nice plug, but on my 92 SE-R, it's a rat's nest of wires and scotch-loks. Otherwise, there is nothing extraordinary at the fuse-box and relay-box.
