[Healeys] Flasher Control Relay Cover

[Mark Donaldson]

Hello, Rick,

 

My car is a January 1962 BT7 tricarb.  Your BJ7 should be the exact same set-up.

The metal cover has the three indents at the base – two on one end and one on the other.  

It prises off quite easily with a screwdriver.  I use one with a fine-blade long-handle.

I’m overhauling two DB10 relays at present.  Any easy task using a points file.

 

Mark

Ardmore,

NZ

Thanks, Mark.  Apparently some of the later ones do come off that way, but the earlier ones like mine (BJ7) have three tabs on the back that need to be prised (Britspeak) up to remove the cover. This requires removing the relay box from the fenderwell.

When I need access to the relay, I disconnect the air duct at the front intake and at the securing strap. The air duct can then be moved enough to access the top screws.

Does the cover of the flasher control relay on a BJ7 come off without removing the entire relay?  Air duct is blocking axis to the top screws of the relay and I don't want to mess with removing it. Trying to get to the contacts to clean them.

Thanks,

"HealeyRick"
