All right Sparky - get your spare fuses and clip leads ready. The electrical system in the MG appears to be all original with a few creative additions. Few of the lights worked at all and I wasn't sure I even had brake lights. Time to learn about Lucas electrical systems.
From what I could tell the system under the hood was all original. I found what appears to the under hood main junction box with only two fuses. After probing and testing I found a bundle of loose and unconnected wires. After a few hours sorting the color code and finding the proper connections almost everything worked.
I needed to remove, clean and adjust the brake light switch - it had simply corroded internally. A little emery file and it was brake lights again. Who thought just getting the lights to work would be so much fun...
