Start at the fues box! All the fuses may look OK and test OK but lurking on the back of the fusebox is the scourge of mini electrics. The fuse box connections are brass strips riveted together, but are exposed on the back-side to moisture and dirt. The'll look fine from the front but be a pretty green colour on the back. Even on clean cars, they can be ugly! The solution is to get a new replacement - one of the cheaper Mini fixes.

 from l to r in the center of the dash...

choke-- wiper--windshield washer--lights-- heater valve pull

The lights and wipers are a rocker type switch

The ckoke pulls out and locks like all of them

The washer pump gloes when the lights are on

The heater valve pull operation is same on all older Mini's

Ignorence is bliss til someone says you are wrong.

Constipated people don't give a crap!

on my '76 it is from R to L lights pump for washer and wipers, BUT it is RH drive. Near the door, R to L is pull for heater core valve, heater fan switch, and pull for vent position.

on the steering coloum it is up for left, down for right, push for high beams pull to flash the guy in your lane and push in to say have a nice day.

They should do something.

If it is a 73, the next one should be the wipers I think, next maybe rear defrost, brake test light, hazards,
