For once, I'm not asking for help. By reading the excellent posts by others that went before me, I now have functioning horn, headlights and blinkers. I finally gave up on my old switch which had a broken clamp that I repaired and a weak spring so it would randomly signal left turns. When I found that the horn button was also dead, I replaced it. I bought a new late model MGB switch and did the mods to the plastic cancellation framus, and the wire swaps. Works like a champ. John Kimbro's diagrams helped with the diagnosis. I am a big fan of soldering and shrink tubing so I repaired a bunch of botched (buggered?) splices from the p.o. I also put in relays for hi-low and horn. If anyone needs details on how to do this, I can provide it. Bright lights and loud horn! I only have a single horn. Are there supposed to be two? If so, I have a spare high tone if someone wants to trade for a low tone (if it exists).

Time to put the hood on and take it to the exhaust guy for some welding!
