Does a picture of the workshop manual help?
I have 67 positive earth gan4 too hence the oily photo.

38 is the ignition switch
The white/red cable on terminal 1 from the ignition switch goes to 4 the starter solenoid.
From terminal 2 go three white wires one goes to 19 the fuse box ( terminal 3)
The other goes to 95 the tachometer
The last white wire goes to 44 the ignition warning lamp.
On terminal 3 from the ignition switch sits a brown/blue wire with comes from the A1 terminal from the voltage regulator.

Hoped this helped.

Hello I have a 1972 mg midget. I was driving it until about 3 weeks ago. I lost my fire it seems. I checked my fuel pump and it is pumping fine. The car is not making contact with something. Need help

Thanks
