I started this week by modifiyng the connection points of the new control box panel switches so as to match the connections from the control box. Some alteration to the wiring of the control box was also necessary, due to the slightly different dimensions of the new switches. I decided the best way to do this was to mount all the switches on the support panel first, then fit that and complete the wiring after. In between doing this, I decided that the battery cable problem (too short) would be simply solved by mounting an isolator switch to a bracket bolted through the bottom rail of the body frame, just to the rear of the front O/S wheelarch. Work continued with fitting the top panel up with the starter and toggle switched, a slow process requiring minor alterations to components. As a break from that, I marked out the bracket for the isolator switch, which had arrived by then. The weather being very hot this week meant time spent in the bus shed was restricted, but the following tasks completed: soldering a ring tag to the end of the battery cable that will go from the isolator switch to the control box and making a suitable bracket to mount the isolator switch to the bottom outer frame rail, for which I used 2mm galvanised steel left over from the battery boxes. Last jobs of the week were to modify and fit the last panel switch and paint the isolator bracket ready for assembly and installation.
