BlankA gear up switch that is actuated by the main gear cylinder =
position doesn't tell you where the gear are. It is possible to have a =
broken cable and the red light out. I mounted two micro switches on the =
gear bulkhead (one for each gear leg) and wired them in parallel. This =
way both gear must be fully up for the light to go out. The gear down =
switch is mounted on the over center bar and is actuated by the over =
center locking arm.
