Thanks for the info. Nice website. It looks like checking the wiring is the
prudent way to go before I order anything. Oh well, I guess it's gonna be a
VFR trip this weekend.

Marco, You can have them repaired at airparts of lock haven. They did
mine a few yrs. ago.@100 bucks... quick turn around time....
I would check for power out at the pitot tube first though.

In my Warrior it was broken wires at the pitot. The avionics shop
noticed it during the 24 mo. certification. Easily corrected for no
more cost than connector and shop time.

I would check the switch first, relatively cheap. Had the same
problem. At
first it wouldn't blow the circuit breaker, it simply wouldn't warm up.
After we started checking wires and connections, we found the switch
was
bad. After we played with the switch, the circuit breaker would blow.

I have a 1978 Warrior II and it looks like the heat element went
south.
The
circuit breaker is fine so I believe that's the problem but I'm open
to
suggestions. My A&P is out of town so I'd like to try and get a head
start
by ordering parts if possible. Can anyone recommend a source to get a
heating element for a Piper pitot tube? Is it recommended to get that
separately or is a new pitot unit the way to go?
Thanks,
Marco
