Replacing Circuit Breaker

[Dick Denenny]

Thanks for all the comments. Sometimes we forget how many models there are and the differences.

Mine is a 1966 M20E. The circuit breakers are on the lower right side. Very easily accessable and have only two screws and wires. As an add. I was certified marine mechanice with Mercury when I was in my 20s.

Quick question to the group. Does replacing a circuit breaker fall under Owner Maintenance like replacing a fuse?

Thanks Dick

The FAA letter says that the list of task isn't exhaustive and should be taken as an example of allowable task.

If it's simple and straight forward, with low risk i'd probably just put it in my log book and have my IA look at it sometime in the future

sometimes, when the moon hasn't rising yet and its very quiet at the airport, a hanger fairy might visit......  

That happens A LOT.

I’m working on a 75 HP three cylinder from the 90s. Whose idea was it to make all the throttle linkages out of plastic. That stuff gets brittle and falls apart. Well at least the parts are available and cheaper than airplane parts.
