MG Fuse Location

I was reinstalling the interior map light on my 1977 MG Midget. While installing the two mounting screws I notice a spark behind the lamp housing and the lamp no longer works. I removed the bulb and attached it to a 12-volt power supply, and it works. I put a voltmeter on the lamp switch and see know voltage. I am assuming that I have blown a fuse, but I don't have a clue where the fuses are on this car. We just bought the car a few weeks ago and clueless in regard to MGs.
Thanks Brian

Open the bonnet (Hood) and they are just beside the left hinge - there are 4.

Make sure you check with a cotinuity tester as the fuse can burn out under the cap.

Also note that British fuses are not the same as American. https://triumphtr6.info/Manuali/fuses.pdf

BTW welcome - you have a great project!
