° sensor. This
sensor is labeled 173010.
The sending unit for the luffing jib angle has a 180
° sensor.
This sensor is labeled 173732.
Replacing the Sensor
See Figure 4-8 for the following procedure.
To replace a sensor, perform the following.
1. Identify all input wires to the existing sensor.
2. Cut the existing input wires near the terminal strip (if
used) to allow for splicing.
3. Remove the existing sensor and the terminal strip (if
used).
4. Mount the new sensor in the existing holes at the angle
shown.
5. Refer to the wiring chart and parallel splice the sensor
wires to the existing input wires with crimp, solder, and
heat shrink tubing.
6. Seal the green wire on the sensor with heat shrink tubing
and coil up.
