Thanks Harry
Old hands trot out the type codes for panels, cutouts etc but without photos those not familiar with the whole range of Sevens are at sea.
May be appropriate here to point out that Fig 11 is possibly incorrect in detail as it shows rhe internal resistor connected after the first field winding and not to the beginning?
Austin seemed to have trouble deciding on fusing. Contrary to most sources, with the final arrangemet winter charge could continue with the fuse blown.
Probably the best way to dress soft silver cutout points and avoid embedded grit is to use a clean manicure file.
I cannot help being somewhat bemused by seven elctrical problems on the Forum, although have puzzled over in the past. All so wondrously simple (although Austin contrived not to make it so to owners).Have been fitting a trailer connection to a my inherited Jazz. Every lamp is wired separately with an earth from the relay panel! So gauge too small to bridge. Quite the most unsatisfying car work I have ever done. Sadly the days of tinkering and total overhauls by amateurs (or anyone) have gone. I have been all over NZ in my Seven and other old cars but I am not confident in the Jazz anywhere. if it stops I have no idea why.
