Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Pgt.4/MA.19.7.32.

We understand that both the ammeter and the Lucas foot-operated changeover switch on 20-EX, have given trouble; the ammeter through "sticking", and the switc h having failed at the contacts.

It will, therefore, be necessary to have these units removed and replaced by others, and we would be pleased if you would have this done when the car is available.
