Filament is self-cleaning... Posted by IrieTom [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: cleaning AMM, Rob '88 SPG, Tue, 26 Nov 2002 11:02:02 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I would suggest that you try to get all loose crap off the sides of the tube, but try to be careful not to touch the filament- physically or chemically. There is a self-cleaning sequence at startup or shutdown (I can't remember offhand) where the sensor filament heats up to the point where it glows bright red.
If nobody else chimes in here, then search the archives- this self-clean procedure is part of the troubleshooting process for AMM/Idle problems (if it doesn't glow when it's supposed to- it's broken...)
On another note, I removed the screens from my AMM to marginally improve the airflow.
