With an aeroplane which has been in the hangar undergoing modification and
refurbishment for over two months, i.e. no work on engine etc., now when I
turn on the master switch the red and orange lights come on momentarily - as
they should, but then after a few seconds the orange light flashes.
This , according to the book is a TCU problem, but what problem? What
should I be looking for? Suggestions welcomed.

Patrick -
Try removing, cleaning, and reseating all of your TCU and sensor
connections. The Operator's Manual (Ed. 0 1998 12 01) says that a
blinking orange is due to a failure of a sensor, sensor wiring, TCU, or
airbox leakage. Hopefully your problem will turn out to be the cheapest
of those possibilities!

I saw the same symptom on the plane Russ has. The blinking orange light went away
when he switched on the switch for the waste gate servo. I think it was labeled
TCU on his plane. It should be on at all times. Only there to cause a reset
if need be, as I understand the way it works.
Hope this helps.

I was waiting for these to come out, he had a bit of problem dissipating LED
heat, but said he solved that problem.

Hi Ron
I have different LED position lights. They are very bright. (Much brighter
than my old reflector bulbs and they don't even get warm.) Then I have 55
watt 12v lights on each side for landing/alternating recognition lights all
mounted in lenses.

Ok... I too had this problem.....what I did was nothing. I guess, I
was about 1/16 off. After much consternation and a mallet ( small ) I
got the wings rigged. Slowly as I did more and more fitting and
setting wing incidence and sweep, The pins got easier and easier to
install and remove. I don't know if I bullied something into fitting
or the wings need to be set with proper incidence and sweep for the
pins work easily. I have a feeling it was the later....
Chat Later,

Good point regarding that turbo servo isolation switch, Cliff.
Out of curiosity, has anyone ever had to use this manual reset switch to
calm a surging turbo? Was the surge brought on by trying to operate in
the "Stay Out" zone between 108% and 110% or something else? Was the
event as entertaining as it sounds!?
Any other tricks or lessons learned to avoid such an event would be
greatly appreciated.
