Curious flap displays


Big Flapper

Recommended Posts

On my "New" CTLS while on the ground when I put the flap setting to -6 I hear the flap motor running and then stop but the numbers still blink and the red light on the upper right of the display is on. This also happens on the 35 deg setting. Looking at the maintenance manual this looks like a control rod out of adjustment to me. Just want to confirm this before I dig into the airplane and make some adjustments.

Did 6 cycles all settings except -6 and 35 worked fine, numbers stopped flashing when flaps reached the assigned angle. on -6 the upper red light is on and the number continues to flash even though the flap motor has stopped. Same for the 35 setting except that the lower red light is on.  Voltage is 12.9  Seems like the limit switches are stopping the flap motor before it reached the flap setting.
