markejackson02 Posted March 31, 2019 Report Posted March 31, 2019 I need to replace the strobe tube in my left wingtip. The manual calls for a Whelen A427 tube. It appears to have a teardrop shaped base. The existing tube has a round base. Has anyone replaced what appears to be an original unit with the 427? I know about the Molex and making sure the wires are in the Grimes order (black/white/red vs w-b-r for Whelen). Thanks Mark Jackson
Bob - S50 Posted April 1, 2019 Report Posted April 1, 2019 We still have a nav/strobe assembly from a '78 J for sale. That includes the strobe tube. It was in the plane since at least 2013 when we bought it so I don't know how much life it has left. Nav/Strobe for sale
