WARNING: Wire colors can vary by year, model and country. Please double-check the wiring in your Datsun 1200 before connecting parts according to this article. You don't want to burn something up! Use a voltmeter or test light to confirm the circuit behavior.

1 Overview
2 Market Differences
3 B110
- 3.1 USA
4 B120
5 B122
6 B210

Overview

Nissan wiring diagrams come in:

The Factory Service Manual
The Service Bulletins
Aftermarket Repair manual, such as Haynes, Gregory's, Chilton and Clymer. Not all include a diagram but older ones did.

Market Differences

Country/Regional Market differences include:

Hazard (emergency) Flasher system
- JDM: Hazard system with single Flasher
- USA: Hazard system with separate Hazard Flasher and T/S Flasher
- Export non-USA: No Hazard System (OPTION for later Australia utes)
Headlight switch for Australia has two-position dimmer and positions act differently

1971

1971 USA, same as or very close to JDM

1972

Minor changes from 1971, mostly additions.
Two-part high res 1519x1024

RED: Changes from 1971

Automatic Choke and relay
dash lamp labeled "IGN" instead of "CHG"
ACC circuit added to Ignition Switch (radio and heat glass)
Heated Glass added to diagram
Heater and switch wired differently

GREEN: New for 1972 emission control for manual transmission vehicles

cutting valve solenoid (for TCVAS)

BLUE: Automatic Transmission models only

Kick Down switch on gas pedel & solenoid on transmission
Inhibit Switch (Park/Nuetral switch on transmission)

1973

USA 1973 Manual Transmission
CAUTION: different from 1972-1972, and from non-USA

New for 1973

anti-diesel solenoid
nuetral detect switch
Heater illumination
seat & retractor switch (?)
Ballast resistor deleted (?)
Speed switch & throttle opener solenoid (?)

Clarified

"Indicator Lamp" now labled "Indicator Lamp (A/T)"
"Heat Glass" hnow "rear defroster"(Canada only) switch & defroster and shows 10A fuse

Changes from 1972

Heater and switch wired differently
Door switch changed to two-pole with color change from BR to B
- warning buzzer colors from R to BR
- warning switch from R to L
Wire colors rationalized
- TCVAS fuse wire color from BW to L
- Left t/s color body/rear harness (makes it consistent with front harness) from 2nd GB to GR
- High-beam switch. headlight feed changed to R (from RY) to match headlight switch. High beam out changed to RY from RW to match dash lamp wire color instead of matching headlamp wire color.

B120

Australia

1978 Australia 1200 ute
3 parts each 656 x 1280
Total size 1968 x 1280

Other RHD

Differences between 1978 Australia and 1978 other RHD

Horn "Low" is optional in Australia
* standard for other RHD countries.

Transmission switches
* Australia: Spade connectors for Back-up lamp switch
* Other RHD has Round multi-connector to:
** Spade connectors for Top Gear switch 
** Spade connectors for Back-up lamp switch

Other RHD has:
* T/O Cut Solenoid
* Vacuum Cut Solenoid
* Speedometer has speed switch and attached SW amplifier
* Heater is optional 
* Dimmer dash illumination switch
** Has usual six-connector rectangular connector
** Has additional 1-spade wire for Twist Control
** Two-position: Normal and Dim (not continously variable)

LHD

Left-hand Drive 1978 B120 has these differences from RHD:

* Cigarette lighter is not illuminated

Otherwise may be identical as far as colors and wires, but presumably the length of many wires differ.

B122

Late-model Sunny Truck from October 1989

B210

B210 Early RHD (Australia?):
