WARNING LIGHTS, ALARMS & CIRCUIT BREAKER
ALTERNATOR WARNINGS LOW OIL PRESSURE ALARM SWITCH
The Captain Control Panel indicates alternator low discharge
with a red warning light
A low oil pressure alarm switch is located off the engine's
oil gallery. This switch's sensor monitors the engine's oil
pressure. Should the engine's oil pressure fall to 5 -10 psi
(0.4 - 0.7 kg/cm2), this switch will activate a pulsating alarm.
The Admiral Control Panel uses a voltmeter to monitor the
performance of the alternator.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE SWITCH
A coolant temperature switch is located on the thermostat
housing. This switch will activate a continuous alarm if the
coolant's operating temperature reaches approximately
210°F (99°C).

ENGINE CIRCUIT BREAKER
The DC harness on the engine is protected by an engine-
mounted manual reset circuit breaker (20 amps DC).
Excessive current draw or electrical overload anywhere in
the instrument panel wiring or engine wiring will cause the
breaker to trip. In this event most engines will shut down
because the opened breaker disconnects the fuel supply. If
this should occur, check and repair the source of the problem.
After repairing the fault, reset the breaker and restart the
engine.
