Re: No hazard voltage
I've double checked the wiring diagram for the late rubber bumper B's and the flasher relay is fed from the direction indicator switch by a light green wire with a brown trace. A green wire runs from the relay to the hazard warning switch. The light green wire with a brown trace runs to the hazard f...

Re: No hazard voltage
That's completely different from my MGB fuse layout. Yours is the earlier rubber bumper version then. I can see the main feed brown wire you mention. Is that fuse ok? I'll try and get my other manual back and have a look at the diagram in it asap. I think from memory the changeover was around July/A...

Re: No hazard voltage
I' m using the 1977 wiring diagram in the official MGB Operations Manual and the fuse box on mine is vertical and the relevant fuse is the bottom one. I wonder if your MG is the earlier rubber bumper one. Does it have dual circuit brakes and 2 relays in front of the fusebox? If not, I do have a wiri...

Re: Hot coil
A few minutes is ok but half an hour is far too long for the ignition to be switched on without the coil being disconnected.

Re: Hot coil
When I was trying to get my Land Rover windscreen washer pump to work I had to leave the ignition on for a short period but I didn't think of checking the coil. This has Pertronix electronic ignition fitted too with a recent NGK coil. Presumably you have the correct ballast resistor coil with an imp...
