Probable cause
The pilot’s failure to detect the tripped alternator circuit breaker in flight, which resulted in a drained battery that prevented the landing gear from fully extending to the down-and-locked position. Contributing to the accident was the improperly installed hardware on the landing gear extension handle, which prevented the extension of the handle and operation of the system.
