[ROVERNET - UK] Lucas RB340 control box.

[James Radcliffe]

I had to replace the control box on my Rover 2000TC recently. I found that 
RB 340 control boxes are available at the local farm supply store. They are 
for Ford series 3000 tractors. They regulate to a lower current, 22A instead 
of 30, but I do not think that this will be a problem unless you do a lot of 
night diving with the wipers on. I checked with the local auto electrician, 
who told me that the original box is dead, and he said that the new one 
should work fine. He even tested it for me. The cost was $22US.  A pretty 
good deal in comparison to some of the prices I have seen. Just make sure 
that you bend down the resistances on the back of it though, the can short 
out against the backing plate.

Well all I need for my 67 2000TC is insurance and registration.


James.
