Dear EditoR
Many times we Bradley repairmen are asked to check out TOW
launchers that are sending false info to the control panel. When the
crew selects ±O² the control panel indicates that missiles aren't
loaded in the launcher or the missiles aren³t armed´
The problem Is almost always dIrt. Dirt clogs both the launcher
and missIle connectors and causes those false messages to the
control panelµ
You can usually prev¶nt di· problems by installing the launcher
cover before hitting the road. The cover
seals out most dirt´ ¸f you don't have a
launcher coveR NSN

use a garbage bag´
±²³´;!
I
you still get
false prompts
when you select
TO¹ gently wºPe
clean the launcher
and missile
umbilical connectors with a dry, clean rag» ¸f
dirt³s the problem¼ that will solve it.
