[Healeys] BN2 Electricals

[Rich Chrysler]

Mike, 

Pop the cover off the box and clean the points sets with fine emery, double
check the air gaps, and you should be good to go for a couple more decades.
The servicing of this stop lamp relay box is not covered in the 4 cylinder
manuals but is covered very well in the 6 cylinder manuals.

Last night the right "blinker" went dark while the left worked fine. I
figured
I'd pop the lenses off the front and rear park/stop/run lights, clean the
contacts and -poof- troubles gone. No. Tonight the other side went dark too.
I
was sitting in the car, motor off but key in the "on" position and I (I
think)
hear that "tung" sound coming fron the scary box that controls all the
electrical that perches on the front left inner fender When I turn on one or
the other of the "blinker" lights. After all this time (car has been on the
road 9 or 10 years since a complete restoration that included a new wiring
harness, etc..) are the gods of Lucas finally caught up to me? Must I now
pay
for my carefree attitude when asked by others- "Naw I've never had a moments
problem with the electricals!!" Says I
Any ideas??
