Have you checked all fuses? The battery is ok? It could be the headlight switch gone bad, check for power and diagnose with the online 300zx serice manual (google it).

Was this in the box or under the dead pedal?

Look at clutch, look left, there is a panel that slides up to reveal fuses. IIRC, it's on the top row.
