DrQuinn Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 My M20C has decided she loves me so much she doesn't want me to leave her alone so she leaves her electrics on after I shut off the master to keep me around. With a little help from my mechanic I suspect it's the solenoid. The parts manual lists the solenoid as part number 001464 which I cant seem to source from anywhere. Does anyone have the part number of a suitable replacement? Thanks! Dave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooneymite Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 Seems like there was a thread on this subject not long ago.....try searching? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrQuinn Posted August 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 Thanks. Before I posted I searched solenoid and came up with some information which wasn't specific enough for my lack of experience. A discussion that resolved to "Skytec metal can ones" and https://www.mcmaster.com/#solenoids/=16scf3q. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooneymite Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 Perhaps something like this would be acceptable to your mechanic? http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/elpages/solenoidx610028.php?clickkey=5006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the Lamar solenoid information includes the following: "the Lamar 12V solenoid (07-01875) is not FAA PMA approved for installation with a log book entry only. It can be installed in a certified aircraft with a 337 field approval." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigers2007 Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 I've bought items from FlyingFish before - make him an offer he can't refuse and pay direct via PayPal. I once bough a front gear fork off a Cessna from him for less than half his asking price. I'm curious to who actually makes that part for Mooney. There is no way it was custom made for Mooneys. I bet you can get one new if you can track down the OEM interchange part number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carusoam Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 I remember writing about master solenoids and instrument solenoids and how they work together. Why one is normally open and the other normally closed to act as a back-up for failure. often, the word solenoid doesn't get used in aviation. Try searching using the word relay instead. If the master fails, the avionics stay on... Make sure you are changing out the right one... PP thoughts, not a mechanic...

N201MKTurbo Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) The company that made those solonoids is out of business. Sky TEC bought the IP and makes them now. http://skytec.aero/product/category/solenoids-contactors/ Edited August 30, 2017 by N201MKTurbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yvesg Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 I think this one is PMA approved: https://www.aircraftspruce.ca/catalog/eppages/sts-12m24m.php?clickkey=1836482 Go to "documents", then "Download the PMA Eligibility" and the M20C is included Yves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
