CREW REPORTED FLAPS INOPERATIVE, STUCK AT 7 DEGREES. FAILED FL23 CURRENT LIMITER, REPLACED FL23 CURRENT LIMITER P/N ANL4. INVESTIGATED REASON FOR FAILED CURRENT LIMITER AND FOUND SEVERAL FLAP ACTUATORS SCREW SHAFTS TO BE ROUGH AND POSSIBLY BINDING UNDER A LOAD, AND ONE ACTUATOR ON THE LEFT WING THAT HAD A VERY WORN SCREW SHAFT THAT WAS CAUSING THE YOKE TO BIND ABOUT THE AREA THAT THE FLAPS WOULD BE ABOUT SEVEN DEGREES. REMOVED ALL FLAPS AND INSPECTED ALL COMPONENTS FOR CONDITION AND WEAR. CLEANED AND INSPECTED ALL COMPONENTS AND REASSEMBLE WITH SERVICEABLE ACTUATORS AND YOKES.

PILOT REPORTED THE RIGHT GREEN GEAR LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHEN THE GEAR WAS UP DURING CLIMB. CAUSE: FOUND BROKEN WIRE AT PIN "C" OF THE UPLOCK SWITCH JW8. THIS WAS GIVING A FALSE INDICATION THAT THE RIGHT GEAR WAS ALREADY UP AND CAPTURED WHICH DISCONTINUED HYDRAULIC PRESSURE TO THE RIGHT GEAR BEFORE IT WAS ACTUALLY ALL THE WAY UP ALLOWING THE GEAR TO FREE FALL TO THE DOWN AND LOCKED POSITION. THEREFORE CAUSING THE RIGHT GEAR GREEN LIGHT TO ILLUMINATE. CORRECTIVE ACTION: REPLACED CONNECTOR P/N: CTJ620E06N AND FUNCTION THE LANDING GEAR SYSTEM WITH REFERENCE TO THE CITATION 650 AMM REV 38 SECTION 32-00-01-06 REV 33. OPERATIONAL CHECKED SATISFACTORY WITH NO OTHER DEFECTS NOTED.

WHILE ON CLIMB OUT AND TEN MINUTES INTO FLIGHT GOT HYDRAULIC VOLUME LOW ANNUNCIATOR. CREW VERIFIED THE VOLUME LOW AND PERFORMED THE HYDRAULIC VOLUME LOW CHECKLIST, PILOT DECLARED AN EMERGENCY AT KHOU AND RETURNED AND LANDED THE AIRCRAFT FURTHER INCIDENT. POSITIONED THE AIRCRAFT TO MAINTENANCE HANGER AND UPON INVESTIGATION FOUND THAT THE HYDRAULIC RESERVOIR WAS DEPLETED DUE TO A RUPTURED HYDRAULIC HOSE JUST OUTBOARD OF THE RIGHT MAIN GEAR GOING TO THE DOWN PORTION OF THE RIGHT MAIN GEAR ACTUATOR. ALL GEAR CYCLED DOWN AND LOCKED UTILIZING THE NORMAL HYDRAULIC SYSTEM, DID NOT NEED TO UTILIZE THE EMERGENCY BLOW DOWN SYSTEM BUT THE PILOT DID USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE SYSTEM DUE TO THE UNRESPONSIVE BRAKE PEDALS.
