WARNING Never make modifications or additions to the electrical circuit
or components on your Morgan. Carefully replace blown fuses. See table on
the rear of the lid for the main fusebox for correct fuse rating for each circuit.
WARNING Working with electricity is dangerous unless conducted
by an expert.
Active Sports Exhaust System
The optional Active Sports Exhaust System uses electronically actuated valves
to control the tone of the exhaust. In Comfort drive mode, the system is
calibrated to produce a more subtle acoustic profile at low rpm. This mode
may be appropriate when driving in urban or populated environments. When
Sport (automatic transmission models) or Sport Plus modes are selected, the
active valves open at lower engine and road speed, releasing the full character
of the engine and unrestrained exhaust volume.
FUSES, EXHAUSTS AND BATTERY
Replacing Fuses
The main fusebox is located behind the passenger footrest at the end of the
footwell. To access the main fuse box, locate the top edge of the carpet trim
and pull it free folding the carpet back into the footwell. Behind the carpet is
an aluminium plate secured by two fasteners. The fuse box is behind this plate.
Release the fasteners and lift the plate up to clear the locating tab at its base. Use
the fuse layout schematic to identify a blown fuse, pull it out and replace it with a
spare fuse of the same rating. The ESC system has two separate fuses which can
be located under the left hand bonnet, they are attached to the chassis next to
the washer bottle filler neck and are accompanied by a layout schematic.
Battery
Your vehicle uses a “maintenance free” battery which is located under the
bonnet on the passenger side of the vehicle. If the battery is required to be
removed from the vehicle this should normally be performed by a Morgan
dealer. Whenever the battery requires removal/refitting, the terminals should
be cleaned and covered in petroleum jelly.
The battery will discharge gradually if the vehicle is not used. If the vehicle is left
standing for more than 2 weeks then it is advised that a battery conditioner is
used to maintain the battery correctly. If a battery is allowed to discharge fully
this will damage the battery leading to failure and this will not be covered on
the vehicle’s warranty.
WARNING Batteries contain acid based liquids; avoid contact with skin,
eyes or clothing. If battery acid is in contact with the skin or eyes flush with
copious amounts of water. Remove contaminated clothes immediately. Seek
medical attention. If ingested do not induce vomiting or ingest any fluids,
seek immediate medical attention.
WARNING Batteries produce explosive gases; keep isolated from
potential ignition sources.
WARNING Ensure battery terminals are always isolated.
WARNING Observe all warnings as shown on the battery.
WARNING Always disconnect the battery when working on a vehicle.
WARNING Never short circuit a battery, short-circuiting a battery may
result in serious burns.
