Craig, would you Post the actual schematic from Lockheed of the boost unit architecture for the Electra?

I have it in the Lockheed manual, but am having difficulty reproducing it.

As to AutoPilot. Perhaps a bad habit, but sometimes check OFF is preceded by Checking ON. If the switch was the problem that precipitated INOP, it may not have returned to OFF.

“I can’t get release... “ Automatic systems are described with specific terminology.

An Autopilot is “Engaged”, or “Disengaged”. A separate term used is “Released”?
