MG MGB Technical - Wiper, tach & directional intermittent problem

1977 MGB. With headlights & wipers on, the wipers, directionals occasionally stop and the tach will drop to zero. Sometimes turning off the headlights gets them back.

I'll check the connections and grounds.... as soon as the rain stops... but I thought I'd check to see if based on the symptoms anyone has specific places to look.

Thanks for any suggestions.

I would look at the ignition relay. It is a little forward of the fuse box on the passenger side. I think the headlights are coincidental. You might try this site as well.
