If it is a case of working but reading incorrectly, those two holes either side of the central screw are adjustment points. There is info on how to adjust the sender and gauge here:

I have a couple of extra senders I can practice on.  This should be fun.

Question: Does anyone know where in any catalogue I can find the chrome (I think) plate that protects the carpet beside the high beam switch?

There isnt one.

Thanks Stuart.  Is there a rubber pad that is supposed to be there?   I ask because of this picture from BP's book:

A rubber heel pad yes there should be but not a chromed one, Talk to TRF or make up your own.

The yellow LHD TR2 foot well has a neat looking home made stainless pad attached by the looks of it.

The original rubber pad is OE Triumph part number 602221

Moss Europe do it.   Maybe if you could ask someone at Moss USA they could tap that OE part number into their system and search for their equiv.

TRF do not list it,  again ring them with the part number and ask.

Cheers

I got one with my carpet set from the TR shop,

I did not fit it straight away, as I thought I would wait to see where the wear took place, & then cover the worn patch with it.

Well, I'm still waiting for any sign of wear !

That’s because the pad is for a LHD car. :rolleyes:

This the harness from the control head.  Just checking that the dark green and red (might be brown) is the line that goes back to the flasher and the light green and red is for the LH signal lights.

Correct. As long as the input is on the correct terminal.

It'll work either way round, but it really ought to be blue/white to main (high) beam and blue/red to dipped (low) beam. The blue is the power feed into the dip switch.

 

 

Thank you both.

 

Not having any reference material and not wanting to assume anything, is 55A low beam and 55b high beam?
