If the weathervane light does not display on LMI or the remote, adjust the microswitch as follows.

With the motor in weathervane and the brake is locked in the release position.  Adjust the blade that contacts the microswitch.  Careful to make sure the blade just contacts the microswitch and doesn’t smash the switch.
