NicoN Posted June 27, 2023 Report Posted June 27, 2023 We have a burned bulb in our A/P controller. This guy sits directly on top of the Co-pilots yoke, below is a small panel with the dimmers for panel and instruments light and the cigarette lighter socket. I am struggling of moving out the Controller. :-( AFAIK it has 2 little "claws" on the underside which should be operated with a screwdriver from the front The right one seems to be turned and unlocked, the left one I am not sure. removing the the screws for the panel with dimmers/cigarette lighter, I can bend that panel only a bit and reach the right "claw" with my finger tip. the left one is not reachable for me as the 2 dimmers are blocking. 1) is there a secret of how to pull the panel? removing the 2 screws seems not to be enough. I still cannot move this piece. And -please do not tell me it is bolted in place and I have to remove the cotroller first! 2) the controller seems to be a bit loos, but i cannot slide it out 3) and yes, for complet e removal I need to remove the yoke. But for now I cannot slide it even half of an inch.
