Throttle pos microswitch
On an 85 with the throttle microswitch that switches to WOT mapping in the DME, I'm wondering if it's supposed to send a signal to the DME at full open only or at about 3/4 of the range to full open. Bentleys say's full open only and the instructions that came with my Steve W chip say's 3/4 to full open. Which is it and does it matter. Mine starts to signal at 3/4.
Thanks

Gordon:
It's between 2/3's and 3/4 throttle plate position. I checked mine with the volt meter and confirmed it with LM1 on the fly. j.p. |

Thanks JP. That's what mine is set at as well. Wonder why the manuals call for full open only. Spoke to Steve W about it and he said it's perfect where we have it and to not touch it. I think there was a bulletin out changing the full to 2/3 to 3/4 for the manuals.
Safe cruising JP
