Pre-Flight
So... just found on pre-flight... NAV lights/position lights not working. Beacon works, both side landing lights work, but not NAV (Separate switch, from beacon and Landing Lights).
Since all three lights aren't working, (left, right and rear position), it is possibly not just a bulb issue?
Here is an interesting thing... This is a 1959 Bonanza K-35, and it has that single light for gear and flap, which are fairly dim, but get very bright if the NAV switch is OFF. Even though the NAV lights aren't working, these annunciator lights still do dim and go bright when I cycle the NAV switch from on to off. But if the three lights aren't coming ON, it shouldn't technically draw any current and hence, not make a difference to the brightness of these lights?
Can ALL 3 bulbs be burnt at the same time?
Any thoughts on where to begin troubleshooting ?
