There certainly are a few anomolies in the wiring and electronic setup of the Morgans. I had my share of problems with the circuit board too. Now that I have a completely wired system it does seem to be reliable (thanks to Borghi). Perhaps you could try soldering the wires together or even solder them to the conector. The current is so low that the slightest resistance could cause a problem.

I still have some strange problems with the instruments including resistances that seem to change depending on whether the engine is running or just the ignition on. I will get Borghi to check earth connections the next time it goes in for service. The two that are giving me problems are the fuel gauge (always a mystery on a Morgan anyway) and the temperature guage. At least I seem to have the fuel guage reading about 90° when the engine is at that temperature and the fuel guage showing empty when I have about 30 to 50km of reserve.

Keep in mind that I have changed the dash and have separate instruments so you can't really compare this to the original.
