Explanation for failure messages
Spindle Fuse:
The re-settable fuse for the spindle drive may be blown in the following
cases:
a) The propeller hub hooks during extension at the engine doors.
b) The limit switch in position engine extended or retracted is not operated.
As soon as the fuse is blown the Control Unit changes to manual extension-
retraction mode and thus cuts off power to the spindle drive and reports the
failure to the DEI-NT.
After the cool-down time (approx. 10sec.) the message disappears and the
symbol for manual operation (hand) will be displayed on the screen.
You may reactivate the automatic operation by operating the ignition
switch, even during the cool-down time.
Case a) Retract the powerplant again manually, then try to extend the
engine again.
Case b) Partially retract the engine manually and then try to extend the
powerplant manually up to its operating position.
