Cessna 400 autopilot

I did buy a P337G today, got a great deal from a friend of mine.
3500 TT, 400SMOH front and back.
Last year the Cessna A/P stopped working he told me, completely failed.
On the ground after switching the on/off switch the power light on the top right did not illuminate, assuming that what it is.
I checked the fuse panel, and did not see an autopilot breaker.
Its a 400 series, and it seems factory.
No manuals either, but did download the manuals from scudrunner.
They do not seem to match what I have in my 337.
Suggestions ?
Thanks all.
Henri.

If you can't tell which 400 version, post a pic. I'm guessing a 400A given the G model, but maybe a B. Either way, it ain't likely a straight 400 (like mine) and is, according to ample research, worth revitalizing in a lot of cases. We have few and poor choices for aftermarket for our airplanes, and a 400A or B will be a very steady position-based AP. You can still get them repaired too--virtually impossible with the straight 400.

Ok, please advise the aircraft vintage, A/P model, your questions are very vague and more details will help your chances at someone trying to help.

Have you posted on the Facebook Skymaster pages?

Kim Geyer is an unknown quantity at this point
I’m cleaning out our hangar now. I have several 400 autopilot systems. Some of servos still have the mounts with them. I may have what you need. Email me: geyer@wefly4u.com
