What does it mean if the Start Fuel Limit is inactive in my Woodward 9905 Control Unit?
On power up, the Fuel Limit can be bypassed if the MPU signal clears in less than 1 second.
What does it mean if the 2301A control does not cut back the actuator voltage on my Woodward 9905?
If the control does not cut back the actuator voltage [T20 (+) and T21 (–)] until the speed setting is completely counterclockwise, the 2301A control may be faulty, or may have the wrong speed range.
