Series 2a 35 FG 55

[Dougie2a]

Almost 6 years later… I’m back, I’m definitely back!
I’ve had a wee side project on the go getting my ‘62 2a 88” on the road - all it needed was a couple of parts here and there… then a few more, and more and…

Anyway, I’m on track with the Lightweight and hope to publish some progress on here.

But I have some questions. Back to the flat heater, 6 years later the pristine outer has got spots of rust through the paint work from sitting around on a damp shelf- nevermind I’ll sort that out AGAIN.

LUCAS FLAT HEATER BRUSHES - Any ideas on part number and from where?

LUCAS FLAT HEATER 10 ohm 10% (see photo) I know what it is but does and I know where it should be attached to the heater, does anyone have a diagram of how it’s wired into the circuit?

Oh and my Lightweight has been converted to 12v off an alternator.

Thanks Dougie

Hi Dougie,

The Green wire from the motor should go to Terminal 8 of the Switch. The Brown wire should go to Terminal 6 of the Switch. The Earth lead, be it White or Black, is fitted under one of the combined cluster clamp knurled nuts. Alternatively it can be earthed to the bulkhead itself. The Brown/Orange feed wire for the heater switch should be connected to Terminal 4 on the switch.

A bit of searching for brushes brought me to these,

But, please check the sizes are right, or that they can be filed to suit.

Regards,
