Drummer Posted January 4, 2021 Report Posted January 4, 2021 Been searching for a new trim switch for 1980 Mooney 231 .... Century 41 Auto Pilot.. anyone out there have any available outlets or contacts on this part. See photo...THANKS Quote
adverseyaw Posted January 5, 2021 Report Posted January 5, 2021 Do you need one new? I'll have one available in March or April if you can wait that long. Good condition, off of my J with a Century IIB. Looks identical to the one in your photo -- a bit cleaner. I see them on eBay occasionally too. 1 Quote
PeteMc Posted January 5, 2021 Report Posted January 5, 2021 I've heard people say that the two micro switches under the thumb switch often get gummed up. So depending what the issue is, some contact cleaner may fix it. Quote

I do not want to wait till March...but if I can not locate one sooner.....I will definitely be in touch regarding your switch...THANK YOU !! Quote
adverseyaw Posted January 6, 2021 Report Posted January 6, 2021 Sounds good. I'll be looking to sell mine once it's off the plane, so will check back here then. Quote
carusoam Posted January 6, 2021 Report Posted January 6, 2021 See what switches are hiding under there... Often they can be cleaned, or replaced with like parts from the electronics warehouse places... Contact the Century 41 people see how outrageously expensive a new switch costs... Are you sure it’s the switch not working? PP thoughts only... Best regards, -a- I straightened the pic... see if it works now. Does the switch bump into that screw at the bottom? Quote
