My 72 TR6 experienced a start problem which I posted a thread on and received much good advice. Upon resolving the issue, I realized that I may have cured another! Dim instrument panel illumination!
Here is the upshot of my starter problem!
Cable on starter from battery was one quarter turn loose.
I removed battery cables, cleaned terminals (which were not showing signs of corrosion).
I removed power cable from starter (filthy but not corroded), cleaned terminals, sprayed with electrical connection cleaner, reattached and tightened properly.
While I was at it, I changed out the 52 year old fuse box as I suspected that the terminals were not as conductive as they were when new.
Result, my 72 TR6 cranks right up and starts immediately.
ADDED BONUS........MY INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTING IS BRIGHTER THAN IT HAS EVER BEEN IN THE YEARS THAT IVE OWNED THE CAR. i CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE COLORS ON MY TACH AT NIGHT!
