Late type Smith's heater

Post by ndevans »

Can someone please be a star, and provide me with a decent close up picture of the original type switch in the late Smith's fresh air heater? Mine is not original, I know that because the original broke, and I replaced it some years ago. The replacement has now broken as well, and I can't remember what the original looked like. I've got a couple of books, including Original Morris Minor, but none show the heater switch close up.

That IS the original type. Just to confirm.

Thanks both, you are duly awarded a gold star each!

I now know that I have still got the original switch that I removed some years ago. I couldn't remember what it looked like, and wasn't sure if I had it in my collection of bits and pieces. I've managed to repair it-the rivets that hold the top onto the body had broken. Two screws have sorted it, and it's now back in place.
