[Healeys] dash switches

[Greg Lemon]

Kees, I have had success with the WD40 treatment as well, not always, but I 
recall my O/D switch was intermittent when I got the car, didn't like like 
it was meant to be taken apart, but a thorough soak and drain with WD got it 
back to snuff.  Has worked on other occasions as well, but certainly not 
every time.

Len, I agree, not sure when I would drive the car with the lights on and the 
panel lights off, or dimmed, maybe it was awful dark on english country 
roads in the distant past and this was needed, but my main concern with 
panel lights on Healeys, MGs etc. over the years has been to make them 
brighter, not to turn them off or dim them.  So your solution certainly is a 
practical one, but some of us obsess with everything on the car working as 
designed, so we futz around with it until it works "just because"
