My microwave is working now. I replaced the large capacitor, but it kept blowing the fuse. After some research I removed the bidirectional diode and now it works normally.

Thanks Joe. The door switches are good, still looking.

I'm trying to troubleshoot my microwave oven. I was able to identify and replace a failed capacitor. But it still has the same problem in that it makes a loud buzz for half a second, then blo ...

You can get the whole brush assembly from Aircraft Spruce. It’s a pretty easy job. It includes the regulator too so you end up with a virtually new alternator.

Glen and Skywagonguy and all,

Same here, no GFCIs in series. The subpanel is powered by a standard breaker right off the main panel. The common and two power leads are wired to the right buses. ...

Thank you Charlie. I have some things to check.

"Does that mean, 'standard breaker and GFCI outlet, and the GFCIoutlet
trips'? (If the standard breaker itself is tripping, then ...

I have an outdoor circuit on a GFCI breaker that trips regularly after minutes/hours/days and always without any known load on the circuit. I'll come back to use an outlet, and find that the GF ...

Same here, standard Van's for me.

I do know someone who used the same tires and wheels as a Bonanza. They
seemed HUGE compared to mine. Something about "just wanting more tire". K

I replaced my 1800 hr/15 YO fuel pump with the tempest in Feb 2022. It
fixed my erratic fuel pressure issue and has worked fine ever since. I
opted for a couple internal socket type bolts. The hex ...

Thanks Bob, that's just the kind of answer I was looking for. We'll all talk about this and maybe each learn a bit. --Dave

I got into a little debate at work the other day about testing thermocouples. The task is to check for a millivolt rise while heating each probe. My coworker was checking for resistance and got a ...

I've trained myself to hod the switch down for a 1/2 a second or a bit longer.

Same here. I learned to do a deliberate one-count at each position.

I flew for the first few years with just the switch and some hash marks on the flap. Like Tim said, it's easy to look out the window.

Dang, I didn't need that one. Garmin's experimental support team has been helpful in the past.

Folks,

Garmin released a new service bulletin 22112 Rev B for experimental autopilots. It's just a software update. Quick and easy if it applies to your system.

That's great, thanks very much. I'll take a look. --Dave

My employer has offered to cover the cost of a GROL test-prep/exam course. Can anyone suggest a provider who does a good job training and administering the test? The web is full of chafe. I&# ...

Similar, but obviously not always successful: I open the Bogert then clinch the lever arm open against the fork with my right hand. Then I put the opposite side of the bar on into the fairing ni ...

I did try leading edge tape. It's no match for an angry Bogert.

We use the Bogert bar and an electric tug. The tug is really the culprit as it's pretty unwieldy.
