The Q10 -- Q8 network is required to provide the transi-
IN4005 tion between the internal 12 VDC and aircraft +28 VDC.

The delay provided by the charge of C9 through
LMPPOS1 R48 and R49 provides filtering to preclude false an-

CR9 2 time of the charging network provides a delay in low fuel

A test of the functioning of the low fuel channel is ac-

should be no circuit through either switch and the resist-

the rate of pressure rise at each switch and observe the
pressure at which each operates. This pressure should
not be greater than 1.5 lbf/in2 (0,1 bar). With the switch
at a pressure above the operating pressure, there is to
be a circuit between Pins 1 & 2 with a resistance not
greater than 10 ohms. Switch pump OFF and observe
pressure when switch resets. This is to be not less than
0.5 lbf/in2 (0,03 bar). OR

Open timer to brush assembly. Disconnect wire harness at brush
assembly and check voltage to
ground from leads. (See de--icing

for power and ground lead and pin
identification.) If low or no voltage,
locate and correct open or high re-
sistance in wire harness.
Check continuity from Terminal G,

nections for correctness and tight-
ness. Correct as required.

Ohmmeter needle must not flicker
when leads are stretched or
flexed. Replace as required.
Open on both ground brushes. Remove brush block assembly
and check both ground brushes for
continuity between the brush and
pigtail lead. If an open is found, re-
pair brush block assembly. If OK,
reinstall and check for proper face
alignment and brush projection per
manufacturer’s Service Data.

Experience in the field has indicated that often the timer is considered defective when the source of the trouble lies
elsewhere. For this reason, the tests should be performed before the timer is removed as defective.
Refer to manufacturer’s service data, McCauley Manual No. 830415, Section 4, for test criteria.

High Oil Temperature Insufficient oil supply Check oil level at regular intervals
and maintain proper level.
Insufficient cooling air Verify the integrity of the air inlet
and outlet ducting to the oil cooler.
Repair or replace parts in accor-
dance with the airframe manufac-
turer’s manual as necessary.
Improper grade of oil Use only grade and weight of oil
specified for the engine. Consult
TEXTRON--Lycoming Service In-

operator’s manual for seasonal vis-
cosity recommendations.
Oil cooler or oil cooler lines are Remove oil cooler and oil cooler

and for seasonal viscosity recom-
mendations.
Failure of new rings to properly Climb to cruise altitude at full pow-
seat er and operate at 75% power for

power setting for break--in.
Failed or failing bearings Excessive bearing wear may be
determined by the presence of
metal in the oil suction screen or oil
filter. Disassemble engine for in-
spection and replacement of bear-
ings.
Incorrectly installed piston rings, Perform a differential compression
worn piston rings, glazed or exces- check. Do boroscope inspection
sively worn cylinder barrels (air leaking past rings can be de-

sound in the crankcase at the
breather entrance). Remove cylin-

barrels.
Worn valve guides Remove cylinders from engine and
take out valves. Measure guides
for wear. Replace guides worn out
of limits. Comply with latest revi-
sion of TEXTRON--Lycoming Ser-
vice Bulletin 388B.
Excessive oil leaks Inspect external area of engine for
leaks and repair same.
Oil being siphoned from engine in Verify the oil filter cap is secure
flight and that the oil access door closes
properly. Verify that the breather
hose is cut properly and located to
prevent siphoning.

sump capacity
Expander in oil control ring improp- If using ring with corrugated type
erly installed or lost its tension expander, ensure ends of expand-

through turbocharger seals charger as necessary. Note: In-
spect the crankcase breather line
to be sure that it is not plugged.
Resulting high crankcase pressure
would not allow oil to return and
would eventually push the oil past
the turbocharger seals into the

High Oil Pressure Oil pressure improperly adjusted Adjust oil pressure to within mini-
mum and maximum range speci-
fied in the appropriate operator’s
manual.
Externally adjustable type--In-
crease oil pressure by turning ad-
justing screw clockwise, and de-
crease by turning counter--clock-
wise.
Solid tower type--Add 1/4 inch
standard flat washers to increase
oil pressure; remove washers to
decrease oil pressure. On short
towers, a maximum of three wash-
ers may be used. On tall towers, a
maximum of nine washers may be
used.
Improper weight of oil used Use the recommended viscosity of
oil for the ambient temperature.
Refer to the engine operator’s
manual.
Oil passage plugged from pressure Remove pressure relief valve from
relief valve to sump the engine and run a soft copper
wire down through the oil passage
to the sump to clear blockage.
Note: If blockage persists remove
sump and clear passage.
Relocated oil pressure takeoff Use only the approved oil pressure
point on the engine takeoff point. Note: If the oil pres-
sure takeoff point on the engine is
moved closer to the oil pump dis-
charge, a rise in oil pressure will be
noted.
Oil temperature is too cold Allow oil temperature to increase
before increasing throttle.

The Mooney Aircraft Corporation wiring/equipments identification system used in current production aircraft de-
letes the Model Number annotation. The purpose of this is to standardize the identification of a system function/
component for all model of aircraft. The functional groups are basically the same as earlier identification num-
bers.
These new functional groups apply to master schematic drawing 800304. The new functional groups are as follows:
CR -- First two/three letters -- Circuit Function
04 -- First set of numerals -- Wire Sequence
A -- Single letter in series -- Configuration
20 -- Last two numerals in series -- Wire Size
