I don't have my POH with me, but I am I correct in thinking you also have to turn the alternators off as well as the master so the system would reset itself fully?

My experience has been that the micro-switches can cause lots of issues and the flickering in transit light might be a clue. You might want to check the rigging of all the switches.

In a similar although not exact event, we found one of micro-switches was intermitant. The gear came up, in transit light stayed on and pump continued to run. I put gear down ok and flew home like that.

On another occasion we figure it was air loads preventing the door close circuit completing and that valve changing to close the doors.

I now get the maintenance folks to pretty thoroughly recheck the rigging including the position of the down locks while the gear is in transit down to try and minimize the potential problems.

Blue skies.
