Hey fellow S12 ers, I was drifting my 88 vg30 when my battery decided to go awol
and attack my radiator. All lights that can be on (CHECK engine, brake , fuel etc...)
are on. these are filled with water.
What are these relays? I think one is the warning lamp relay not sure about the other...
p.s. I am also missfiring since this happened, coincidence? pics are below battery

I actually forgot, but I have it written down at home. I think they have something to do with ignition and other major important things to start and ignite. I had to rewire mine due to battery acid some how destroyed the original harness on mine. They should be water proof.

they let you drift without a proper tie down? 

that's dangerous.

They normally hang underneath the battery. But the acid corrosion was before me and my time.
Shortly after I got the s12 it destroyed upon touch. I should just get a new body harness but I really do not want to pull all the old wiring replace it with another harness.

that would be a negative ghost Rider.  This was just parking lot pimping lol.  His tie down failed,  j bolts said "peace!  " and pulled out of the normal spot. Cause you know, Nissan only used the best steal in the 80s lol
