What size fuse for Cessna Clock?

You must have a different clock than I have. Mine is the OEM (still
running after 30 years!) that has the rewinding clunk every 5 minutes
or so. Like they once used in cars 40 years ago.

Thanks for the replies. My clock is like nrp's and has the rewinding
solenoid that clunks about every 2 minutes. There is only a load on it
for a fraction of a second and is too fast to measure with my dmm. I am
going to put a 1 amp fuse in and see what happens.

Thanks,
Mark

Mark,

The Cessna part # for the fuse is an S1091-1. This is a 1 amp *rated*
fuse. The physical *size*, however, is a little different than your
standard automotive "AGC" glass fuse. The length is the same, but the
diameter is slightly larger. These are called "AGS", and if your local
NAPA doesn't have them, your local Cessna dealer will (they are pretty
inexpensive".

Happy Flying!
