Found a lot in the archives on stobe wiring but not much on troubleshooting.
I have just fired up a Creativ-Air strobe system with mixed results. Right wing and tail fire great but the left wing strobe does nothing.
First thing will just be to recheck the wiring and make sure I have continuity. Assuming that is good, I was thinking that I would swap positions in the stobe power unit as there is an extra position that I did not use. Next bet would be to swap the stobes themselves from wing to wing but I was wondering if there was anything that could be checked with a regular voltage meter?
I am assuming that it is high voltage at the strobe itself so it's not like you can just turn it on and stick a probe in it,.... or is it? I haven't a clue ??
What should I be looking for ? Creativ-Air site is gone so no luck there.
Any thoughts, suggestions would really be appreciated?
Thanks Bill S
