As we are closing things up for annual this year, we needed to jack the aircraft back up again to make an adjustment to the main gear doors. After making the adjustments, after putting the gear up, noticing that the "Gear Unsafe" light is still illuminated. Trying to remember how many conditions that there are that would fit this bill.
1) Throttle closed (to a certain point) with the gear up (switch issue?)
2) Nose Gear Up Switch not being hit (position or switch issue?)
3) Left Main Up Switch Not being hit (position or switch issue?)
The pump motor shuts down and does not come back on (with the gear up), so I would suspect it is one of these three conditions. Is there another that I'm forgetting? Trying to help the shop chase it down while they are at lunch.
EDIT: I should also include that the Automatic Gear Extension system is being overridden as we are on jacks on the ground, so...
