Flaps won't extend beyond 2/3

I got it figured out. The push-pull cable that attaches to the flap indicator was out of adjustment. The flap indicator interacts with two switches on the flap position selector. They both move, so its a fairly precise little Rube Goldberg mechanism. The push pull wouldnt allow the indicator to go to the full down position, which in turn caused a switch to not be pressed. I took some pics that I will upload later. Files are too big so site wont let me from my phone.

Pics attached. Had to remove the pedestal cover to access the flap selector switch. For pressurized models, you have to remove the dump valve t-handles and securing nuts before you can remove the pedestal cover.

Pursuant to Ernie Martin post, I have read with interest information under technical data at this website’s home screen regarding flap cables and inspection.
