Century 41 A/P pin out diagram

[jwilkins]

My Century 41 auto pilot operates properly for all functions and in all modes except NAV.

The switch in the switch / control box is OK and the signal to the pin in the connector on the switch / control box is OK.

Before I have the switch / control  panel and computer shipped to Autopilot Central for repair I'd like to verify the cable assembly between the switch panel and the computer is OK to rule out any wiring / cable issue.

Does anyone have a pin-out diagram for the computer so we can check that the NAV switch selector signal is actually getting to the computer OK?

Thx, 

Jim

good luck.

We were there before posting the question. Lots of good information but the drawings provided refer you to other drawings for connector wiring. What we are trying to figure out is what pin on the connector at the computer corresponds to programmer pin 8 /58. IOW, where is pin 58 at the computer connector? 

Thanks,

Jim

This has been useful to me troubleshooting worn-out connector pins....

Purchasing the Century 41 maintainance manual from Essco has been money well spent too...

So Programmer pin 8 (CD 168 on the programmer) goes to Pin 58 on CD185 on the Computer

(it's so strange when the forum posts using someone elses account!)

I had forgotten about Essco; I just bought the soft copy download version of the manual. Thanks.

I was too cheap to spend the $250 at Century, but $80 is well worth the investment.
