I had this issue in my 93 J a few years ago . I disconnected the magnetometer, cleaned electrical connections and hooked it back up. No problems since.

Thanks. I will eventually have a shop look at it.

The panel lights do work properly and are left off during daylight flights

I played with the dimmer switches. They did not seem to affect the 150. The display on the 150 does brighten up some,when I shine a flashlight on its photo cell, but dims down to almost nothing when I left alone

The lights on the screen are very dim. When I shine my flashlight on the photo cell, they brighten up somewhat, but don’t stay bright. Hoping for a simple fix.

Black always works

Removing the lower cowl by yourself is not difficult. After removing the top cowl, secure a bungy cord through a camloc opening on each side of the lower cowl to the top of the engine. Undo all fasteners including cowl flaps. Slide a height adjustable office chair (no arm rests) under the cowl and loosen, then remove, the bungies, allowing the cowl to rest on the chair. Carefull to clear the prop etc, pull the chair and cowl out from under the airplane. Do this in the reverse order to re-install.

My home drome, CZBB, Boundary Bay Airport, is under Vancouver international control zone. Just north of the American border. Has Customs clearance, good along runways, fuel, a restaurant, FBO, rental car.etc. from there I would follow the coast north to PAKT, Ketchikan International, to clear customs into Alaska. Enjoy your trip

Thanks. I PM’d you

Is the last letter in your pt no a ‘V’ not a ‘W’?

I have been chasing a malfunctioning right fuel quantity gauge in my 93 M20J. It typically starts indicating correctly at the beginning of a flight, then after perhaps 15 minutes it will drop down to a lower indication and some minutes after that it will drop right off , as if all power was turned off for it. We have done some checking of electrical connections and ground etc. When I swap positions with the left fuel indicator gauge, the right gauge malfunctions the same way in that location, whereas the left gauge functions normally in the right hand slot as well as the left. This leads me to believe that the gauge itself is malfunctioning. Does anyone have a functioning used gauge that they would sell me? pt # 169BH-910-4LBW Left and right fuel gauges seem to be interchangeable, so I would consider using the left fuel quantity gauge part # 169-BH-910-3LBW and re-labeling it.

That is the post that I was looking for. Will check out wheel balance thoroughly. Thanks for the replies.

I thought that someone had a client with a twin where one engine shuddered and it was finally remideed with a certain brand engine shock mounts.

93 J has a shudder right at lift off that lasts a second or 2. Produces full manifold pressure and RPM and runs smoothly in all other phases of operation. I seem to remember reading something about something similar here but cannot find it.
