[Healeys] 3000 turn signal control box access

[HealeyRick]

Hi Ken,

Before replacing the relay, you might try using contact burnisher strips to
clean any oxidation from the points inside the relay:

Worth a shot rather than paying to replace with a repro.  Your solution to
get through the air hose sounds like it should work.

Happy Healeying,
Rick
