bd32322 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 I was going to take out the attitude indicator from the plane in order to send it for overhaul. But in my 1987 M20J - after I took the glareshield out, there was barely any space behind the AI unit to unhook the 3 connections - 1 electrical and 2 rubber hoses. The sloping windshield causes problems. Do you take the 6-pack panel out and then unhook the AI or am I missing something? thx in advance. Quote
Piloto Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 You only need to take the AI out. What you are seeing is the typical bundle of wires and hoses behind the panel. The bundle may need to be pushed slightly to get access. Beware that some old hoses may be hard to remove even after the clamp is loose. Try rotating the hose at the connector to break the bonding. Good Luck José Quote
laytonl Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 I can usually get mine out from the bottom. I have taken the DG out, but usually can get the AI out by fishing it around the wire bundles. Helps to take the pilot's seat out though. Lee Quote
