[Healeys] 2A fuse??

[Tom]

I removed the old BMC AM radio from my car last year.   The fuse holder
just crumbled in my fingers, and at the time I thought the fuse holder was
empty.   Maybe there was a fuse in there after all...  It just took time
and bumpy NH roads for the fuse to work its way into the footwell.

Yes, I was referring to the fuse on the license plate light.  The owner's
manual and Chilton's both show one, but I haven't gone looking for it
myself.

A big thanks to everyone!  I was worried something had fallen out the back
of one of the gauges.  Now I can keep on driving for a few more weeks until
road salt season begins.
