my 73p has ei volt/amp gauge. my dis remains on but amps chk ok. now i will chk the lights closer. its in annual. During the annual i had mechanic chk ohms on landing gear switch. and found it dropping out/intermittent. we will replace. occasional delay going up. i never hear electric gear motor and do not want to burn one up.

Skymaster.
If you have a DIS light on, even when you have both alternators on line, you have a Sensor u/s, or you do have low volts?

not low voltage
 
not a volt or amp low . according to the digital gauge. the dis lite stays on but system is a ok. just a glitch. next couple week it will be in the hands of a new owner. It will be in the best condition known to 337's. this 73p has given me great pleasure and I want to hand it off in better shape than i found it, I traded it for a cheyenne 1 fuel hog.every time i fill the cheyenne i miss the recip. Should i sell the pa31t i would go back into the p337. J

Electrical failure
 
I went back up to hanger on Saturday and pulled cowling. I removed battery cables and cleaned and also checked the battery. It looks like I have one cell that is weak. Battery is a little over 2 years old. I did notice it did not turn engines over that fast. I ordered a new battery. I hope that is my problem. I also checked all the diodes on firewall. They checked ok with ohm meter. Dale

Interesting! I learned a long time ago (40+ years) the first thing you do when transient electrical problems show up is to buy a new battery. It's the cheapest way to diagnose and fix funny electrical problems. (Of course, you may just be able to borrow a good battery first.)

It will be 53 years since I soloed... Electrical glitches, gremlins what ever.. sometimes they go away on there own and sometimes they don't.. Good luck Dale... guy

And lucky I guess, 30 years operating turbines.... no hot starts.

I guess some of us solo at a VERY YOUNG age, and then there are those of us who soloed late in life.

C'mon Larry. Don't spoil it for me. Let me believe I'm young.

Electrical Power Failure
 
Keven ,
You are probably a lot younger than Guy or myself, but Guy and I had more years of fun flying the skies, right Guy. Buy the way I replaced my battery and it did not fix my Dis light problem. It must be the sensor. Where is that sensor, I hope not on that circuit board in the center console I just replaced 2 years ago. Dale

Keven, you are young. In fact, you are just a baby, a kid, a youngster, a yout.

Now I feel better . . . .

Shew . . . . Much better. And by the way, I typically wear a velvet tux in court exactly like the one he wore in the movie.
