Morris Minor Owners Club

I've taken the battery off to give it a charge. 12.4 volts seems a bit low to me.
It'll be back on in an hour or so.
Please keep the advice and ideas flowing!

By the way, thanks for your advice and your time.

Is it possible that the light is on, but there's no actual fault?

Hi, Sorry but I've no idea how Internet forums work, so I can't figure out how to reply to you all individually. The battery wasn't disconnected so it can't have been put back on with wrong polarity. The fan belt seems fine, it was a bit snug to fit, but has a bit of free play that needed tensioning...

Thanks Bowie.
Any info on the heater switch setting?

Hi, Help out a newbie! There is a switch on my 1968 saloon, under the speedo, bottom right corner. It slides left and right, only 2 positions. It seems to switch off the two orange lights on the speedo, but what is its purpose? Also, can anyone tell me which position of the heater switch is for &quo...

I'll check the connections in the morning. Good idea.
The belt was tight to fit. Even with all the Dynamo bolts slackened, it took some getting onto the pulleys.

It's a dynamo

Hi, I've fitted a new fan belt (813) and new spark plugs yesterday , the engine starts and runs lovely, went for a drive for half an hour no problem, however today, I started the engine and the red IGN light is on all the time and won't go out. The belt isn't slack, lights work ok. Any ideas to help...

Add a cover to the terminal so you don't accidentally short it out when you are monkeying around under the bonnet. Those metal clamp bars are just asking to touch both terminals at once. I see Geoberni has put some stuff on to insulate the area. Good plan! :D https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-x-Battery-...
