LOW OIL PRESSURE SWITCH RELOCATION ICA Supplement

A. The ICA Supplement List located in the Introduction section of each manual listed in the REVISIONS table will indicate the incorporation status as of the release date of the published revision. B. The manual revision level of the supplement incorporation will be listed in the "Manual Incorporation Status" column in the ICA Supplement List, when those ICAs associated with that manual have been incorporated. After ICAs are incorporated, the manual that they are incorporated in must now be used for those ICAs instead of the supplement. • Based on revision cycle times for the affected manuals, MM ICAs, WDM ICAs, etc. in this supplement may be incorporated in the manuals at different times. • There will not be a revision to this supplement to indicate incorporation in the manuals. Users are required to check the ICA Supplement List for each manual affected to determine incorporation status. C. This supplement will be completely superseded by the manuals listed in the REVISIONS table when it has been incorporated in all of the manuals. Page 3 of 6 Feb 18/2021 © TEXTRON AVIATION INC.

Feb 18/2021 ICA-172-79-00001A Form 2261 Rev 1 CESSNA® MODEL 172 (SERIES 1996 AND ON) MAINTENANCE MANUAL OIL PRESSURE INDICATOR - MAINTENANCE PRACTICES 1. Description and Operation A. Oil pressure is measured at two points on the engine and gives both indicator readings and low oil pressure annunciation. (1) On airplanes with Garmin G1000, the oil pressure is shown on the Multi-Function Display (MFD). The oil pressure transducer is the same for all avionics packages. (2) The oil pressure indicator system has an oil pressure line, a transducer and a pressure/ temperature indicator in the cockpit. Oil for the system is tapped at the upper right side of the case. This oil goes through a rigid line to a transducer on the rear baffle area. This transducer gives an electrical signal which goes to the oil pressure/oil temperature indicator in the cockpit. (3) The low oil pressure annunciation system has a pressure switch and related wiring. Depending on airplane configuration, the switch is either mounted on the top of the right-hand crankcase at the aft end, or is mounted on the left side of the accessory housing. The switch is configured so that when oil pressure is below 20 PSI, a ground is supplied to the annunciator in the instrument panel. This causes the OIL PRESS light on the annunciator to come on. When oil pressure is greater than 20 PSI, the ground switches to the Hobbs meter and extinguishes the OIL PRESS light. 2. Oil Pressure Indicator and Transducer Removal/Installation NOTE: On airplanes with Garmin G1000, the oil pressure is shown on the Multi-Function Display (MFD). Refer to Control Display Unit - Maintenance Practices for removal and installation procedures of the MFD. NOTE: Oil pressure transducer removal and installation is typical for all avionics packages. A. Remove the Oil Pressure Indicator (Refer to Figure 201). (1) Make sure the electrical power to airplane is off. (2) Remove screws that attach the indicator to instrument panel. (3) Disconnect the electrical connector from forward side of the indicator. (4) Carefully remove the indicator from the instrument panel. B. Install the Oil Pressure Indicator (Refer to Figure 201). (1) Connect the electrical connector to the indicator. (2) Put the indicator in position in the instrument panel. (3) Attach the indicator with the screws. (4) Operate the engine to make sure the indicator operates correctly. C. Remove the Transducer (Refer to Figure 201). (1) Remove the upper cowl. Refer to Chapter 71, Cowling - Maintenance Practices. (2) Disconnect the oil pressure line at the transducer. (3) Disconnect the electrical connector from the transducer. (4) Remove the nut that attaches the transducer to the rear of the baffle and remove the transducer. (5) Remove the O-ring and fitting, if applicable. D. Install the Transducer (Refer to Figure 201). (1) Install the O-ring and fitting to the transducer. (2) Install the transducer to the rear baffle and attach with the nut. (3) Connect the electrical connector to the transducer. (4) Connect the oil line at the transducer. (5) Install the upper cowl. Refer to Chapter 71, Cowling - Maintenance Practices. (6) Operate the engine to make sure the transducer operates correctly and does not have leaks. 3. Low Oil Pressure Switch Removal/Installation A. Remove the Low Oil Pressure Switch. (Refer to Figure 201 for switches mounted on the right-hand crankcase and to Figure 202 for switches mounted on the left side of the accessory housing). (1) Make sure the electrical power to the airplane is off. (2) Remove the upper cowl. Refer to Chapter 71, Cowling - Maintenance Practices. 79-30-00 Page 201 © TEXTRON AVIATION INC.

(5) As necessary, do the Low Oil Pressure Switch Elbow (If Installed) Removal procedure in this document. B. Install the Low Oil Pressure Switch (Refer to Figure 201 and Figure 202). (1) As necessary, do the Low Oil Pressure Switch Elbow (If Installed) Installation procedure in this document. CAUTION: Do not use teflon tape. CAUTION: Clean any sealer or other foreign object debris from the switch fitting before installation. Make sure foreign object debris is removed and clear of the pressure hole in the end of the switch fitting. (2) Put U544006 sealant (or equivalent) on threads. CAUTION: Do not use too much torque on the plastic switch connection housing when the switch is tightened by hand. CAUTION: Use only the hex fitting to final tighten. Do not use plier-type tools on the plastic housing or the circular metal base of the oil pressure switch. The switch can be damaged between the swaged connections between the plastic housing and circular metal base and/or the metal base and the hex fitting. Damage to either of these swaged connections can cause an oil leak. (3) Install switch and tighten by hand. (4) Tighten switch approximately 1 to 1 1/2 turns beyond hand tight. Do not tighten the switch to more than 60 in-lbs. Refer to Chapter 20, Torque Data - Maintenance Practices. (5) Connect the electrical connector to the switch. (6) Install the upper cowl. Refer to Chapter 71, Cowling - Maintenance Practices. (7) Make sure the Low Oil Pressure Switch operates correctly. (a) With the engine off, the OIL PRESS annunciator must be ON.
