What is the purpose for the sensors behind the instrument panel, connected to the pitot system? Low airspeed or overspeed sensors? I have one that seems to be a clog in the system keeping the airspeed indicator from working. Any help is appreciated.

The pitot and static lines going to the front instrument panel are connected to the disabling solenoids which are controlled by the disabling switches in the rear cockpit. You can reroute the hoses connected to the solenoids going to the airspeed indicator. Look for the black and white 6 mm lines on the left side of the fuselage with the rubber hoses connected to them that go to the disabling solenoids. These lines run vertically behind the left side panel. Bypass the two solenoids with new 1/4" or 6 mm ID rubber hoses and go directly to the airspeed indicator.

One word of caution if you still have the original Russian VSI in the front cockpit. When you eliminate all of the disabling solenoids the Russian VSI will not function properly because it has a second hose connected to it which goes to the bleed off capillary in the instrument. The rear VSI does not have the second hose going to it even though the face of the instruments look identical.

Hope this helps.
