Electrical Problems?

Both headlights will go all the way up, but when i lower them the left one goes down normally and the right one goes down, but then comes up about halfway. When i first bought the car, the windshield wipers were working but then all of a sudden stopped working from one day to the next. Oh, and the clock will not display time. Yes, these are noob problems but i am a noob.

Hey, c-los. I'm also new to this forum, but not to Z31 cars and auto mechanics in general. That said, I think the best place to start is to download the zipped Factory Service Manual from Xenon's great site.

http://www.xenonz31.com/reference.html

Start with the Table of Contents (TOC), and go from there. Often, you can get to an answer or a troubleshooting procedure that is more helpful than searching this (or other Z31) forum(s). There's a ton of info, and many could benefit from learning to read the car's computer codes (see file EFEC in the FSM).

Browse around Xenon's site, and other sites quoted by contributors on this forum, for more great resources.

Good luck with your car,

Mike
