Datsun did not do the greatest job detailing the switches in their diagrams.
You have to blow them up quite a bit on your screen to clearly see what
jumps to what in which switch position.  Some switches, if they are just an
on/off function like the brake pedal switch, may only be a simple rectangle
on the drawing.

Did you pinch any wires when you tightned the steering column down?  I had
to watch that very carefully the last time I installed my steering column,
and will tomorrow when I change my steering column to replace the ingnition
switch.

HELP!
  Okay so I pull the top left 20amp fuse and the turn signals are working?
I put the fuse back and the turn signals are still working but a bit
faster-brighter?
Still no brake lights? or S-brake light? I tested the brake light switch and
it tests out fine.  I have it jumped now to always on and still no brake
lights?
I do not know what I did.  I was under the dash to reattach the lighting
lead
for my autometer gauges-they work.  I also tightened down the steering
wheel?  How would this of shut off power to the brakes?
Thanks to Tom Hendrickson I have a pretty cool color coded wiring diagram.
But I get lost at the switches, I don't understand how to read the diagram
at the switches.....
        What do I check next?
                Thanks,
