[Healeys] electrical problem

[alfuller194 at gmail.com]

All: Following is Jim's response to one of our emails - I think I failed to make it to the list, but might informative in helping troubleshoot the issue. 

Jim: we all have several questions, including is the car negative or positive ground, does anything else on the car not work, is it possible the key was left on the 'on' position for an extended time?

All the best,
