(Throttle Control) Gear Warning Buzzer

[Matthew P]

Looking for information regarding the Gear Warning Buzzer that is tied to the Throttle Control that goes off if you pull the throttle back below 13" MP, looked in the service manual and POH but don't see it addressed. I do see the information about the buzzer tied to the air switch that will go off if you try to raise the gear below 80 mph.

TIA

In the M20J POH I looked at, it says approx. 12" MP  (13-15 for the 231).  If you have a PDF of your POH, try searching for "gear horn" and it should come up.

To check it, you pull the power back in flight with the gear up.  Adjustments might take a few flights if it got wacked or came loose and needed a major calibration.

Had to reinstall this when we put a new throttle in last year.

It's kind of a pain to adjust but very simple in design, it's just keyed off a position of the throttle. I got it set correctly after about 2 test flights.
