Pre-takeoff checklist
Flyers,
I have an S-TEC 50 autopilot with alt hold in my '71 Cardinal RG. I had my yokes removed to be leather covered and the pilot's side has a PPT switch, AP disconnect switch and an alt hold disconnect switch. After the A&P reconnected the wires the AP will turn on and it will boot up. But, when placed in the run mode, it will not activate on wing leverer, heading mode or alt hold mode. Basically, the lights are on, but no one's home.
Any thoughts? The obvious is of course a misconnected wire or a broken wire, but I am told it is wired correctly.
