    I have no idea without a callout in the IPB.
  2. tinyclark
    There are way too many LAC processes to remember that much. Also, some wiring was replaced by newer designs. The 1-!A-14 has the story on aircraft wiring.
  3. tinyclark
    You will have to contact Lockheed. I used to have access to those LAC processes when I was working.

    Not a pneumatics guy, but it looks like an expansion joint like the type used in plumbing. Doesn't the parts index indentify it?
  5. tinyclark
    Try swapping the TCAS processor with another aircraft. It is always goo to know you have a working unit, same with the antenna, swap with a good aircraft.
  6. tinyclark
    I would think anyenna or one of the cables. Are you sure all cables are connected properly?

    FSR

    tinyclark replied to munirabbasi's topic in C-130 Technical

    Munir, since it makes no difference which phase is monitored, any phase could be used. I have no idea why they chose phase C. Maybe the relay was closer to a phase C connection. The only person that probably knows is the engineer who designed it back in the 1950's. Sometimes, I think you think too much about these details. 😅

    Munir, For valve #40P107? Cage code is 82829 Contact Allen Aircraft Products, phone # 330-296-9621
  14. tinyclark
    Don't know why the #1 system pressure would affect #2. The worst thing the USAF did was put two 99.9% error free systems on the same bird. Woud have been so much better without the second system. The RF interlock system is ridiculously designed. I don't see that causing your problem. Wish I could be of more help.

    Make sure the antenna cables are connected correctly. There is a possibility that two are swapped.
