As usual, Barney was right. I happen to be working on a 58 TR3A, and the
flasher units are the same. I guess its ok that I'm now running a Triumph
flasher unit in my MGA????
The one that failed was purchased from a FLAPS last year. The one from the
TR3A may be original; that car has been off the road since around 1972

Most likely a poblem with the flasher unit going power on okay, but not
flashing.
