02 09 26 40
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Apollo 13, Houston. We'd like to charge battery A now.
02 09 26 46
Jim Lovell (CDR): Charge battery A. Roger.
02 09 27 13
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): And, Jack, in regard to your question about the P52 and LM platform, it's—There's no need to worry about that now. We wouldn't be using the LM platform for—until about 79 hours, so let's go as is on the platform for now. Over.
02 09 27 30
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. We understand.
02 09 27 37
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay, Jack.
02 09 30 13
Jack Swigert (CMP): And, Jack, we've turned off the waste dump heater. If you're going to consider dumping any more waste water, we probably ought to do it while the duct is warm there.
02 09 30 30
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Roger. Stand by, Jack.
02 09 30 34
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay.
02 09 30 38
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay, Jack. Let's keep the water; no need for a dump right now.
02 09 30 44
Jack Swigert (CMP): All right.
02 09 32 15
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): 13, Houston. We see the PROP ISOL valve on RCS quad Charlie closed, so we'd like to also disable AUTO RCS feature in quad Charlie.
02 09 32 30
Jim Lovell (CDR): You want to isolate the AUTO RCS features in quad Charlie?
02 09 32 33
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Affirmative.
02 09 32 44
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay, Jack. I didn't plan to reset that quad Charlie DROP ISOL valve. Do you want me to do that? Okay. We just tried it and quad Alfa and Charlie barber poles are showing.
02 09 33 01
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Stand by, Jim.
02 09 33 03
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay, Jack. That's the sec—secondary propellant barber poles on Alfa and Charlie.
02 09 34 47
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): 13, Houston. It won't do any good to try to power the propellant valves on A and C, so we want you to disable the AUTO on RCS Charlie. And we have a procedure for getting power from the LM we'd like you to copy down.
02 09 35 08
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay.
02 09 35 09
Jim Lovell (CDR): Stand by, Jack.
02 09 35 11
Jack Swigert (CMP): That sounds like good news.
02 09 36 05
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay, Jack. About how long is it?
02 09 36 12
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): It's not a very long procedure, Fred. We figure we've got about 15 minutes' worth of power left in the command module, so we want you to start getting over in the LM and getting some power on that. And, you ready to copy your procedure?
02 09 36 27
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay.
02 09 36 29
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay. In the CSM.
02 09 36 30
Fred Haise (LMP): Stand by.
02 09 36 40
Fred Haise (LMP): Go ahead.
02 09 36 41
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay. In the CSM on panel 5, circuit breakers LM POWER 1 and 2, OPEN. Then LM POWER switch, reset and release. In the LM, on panel 11 and panel 16, TRANSLUNAR BUS TIE. Both circuit breakers CLOSE. On panel 16, circuit breaker ASCENT ECA CONTROL, CLOSE. On 16, DESCENT ECA CONTROL, CLOSE. On panel 14, put your BAT 5 NORMAL feed ON. BATs 1, 2, 3, and 4 LOW VOLTAGE taps, ON. BAT 5 NORMAL feed, OFF. ASCENT ECA CONTROL, OPEN. You copy?
02 09 38 08
Fred Haise (LMP): Stand by 1.
02 09 38 24
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay. In the CSM, on panel 5, we want CB LM POWER 1 and 2, OPEN. Then the LM POWER switch to reset, release. In the LM, panels 11 and 16, X LUNAR BUS TIE breakers closed. On panel 16, the ASCENT ECA CONTROL closed; the DESCENT ECA CONTROL closed. On panel 14, BAT 5 NORMAL feed ON, followed by BATS 1, 2, 3, and 4 LOW VOLTAGE taps ON. Then BAT 5 NORMAL feed OFF. Then ASCENT ECA CONTROL breaker OPEN.
02 09 38 58
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): That's a good readback, Fred.
02 09 39 14
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): And, 13, Houston. As a final effort here, we would like you to turn on the fans in tank 2. Over.
02 09 39 23
Jim Lovell (CDR): Roger. Understand. Turn on the fans in tank 2.
02 09 39 34

02 09 39 45
Jim Lovell (CDR): O₂ tanks—fans in tank 2 are on.
02 09 39 48
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Roger.
02 09 41 31
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): 13, Houston. We'd like you to start making your way over to the LM now.
02 09 41 38
Jack Swigert (CMP): Fred and Jim are in the LM.
02 09 41 42
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay, Jack. Thank you.
02 09 41 47

02 09 43 10
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay.
02 09 43 11
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): — the guys in the LM.
02 09 43 15
Fred Haise (LMP): You got another one?
02 09 43 17
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): I have an activation procedure. I'd like you to copy it down.
02 09 43 25
Jim Lovell (CDR): How long is it, Jack?
02 09 43 27
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): It's just four lines. Go to Activation 1, do step 3. Go to Activation 11, omit step 1. Do Activation 12, and then go to Activation 13 and do step 1. Do you copy?
02 09 43 54
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. Is that Activation 1? Do step 3. Is that correct?
02 09 43 59
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): That's affirmative, Jim.
02 09 44 03
Jim Lovell (CDR): Activation 11, omit step 1, do the rest. Is that correct?
02 09 44 06
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): That's affirmative.
02 09 44 12
Jim Lovell (CDR): Do Activation 12 and Activation 13, step 1.
02 09 44 14
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): That's all correct.
02 09 44 25
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay, Jack. Pressure in tank 1 is approaching 100 psi. What's going to be the symptoms of this fuel cell starting to drop off?
02 09 44 51
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Stand by, Jack. We'll get the word on that.
02 09 44 56
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay.
02 09 45 06
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): And, Jim, when you get to the end of that procedure, we'd also like to have you put the DEMAND REGs to CABIN.
02 09 45 15
Jim Lovell (CDR): DEMAND REGs to CABIN. Roger.
02 09 45 31
Jim Lovell (CDR): Jack, was that Activation 1, step 3 only, or all of Activation 1?
02 09 45 38
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): That's go all the way down to step 3, Jim.
02 09 45 44
Jim Lovell (CDR): Activation 1 to step 3. Roger.
02 09 46 48
Jim Lovell (CDR): Houston, Apollo 13. Never mind.
02 09 46 54

02 09 47 05
Jim Lovell (CDR): — … Jack. It's got—Okay.
02 09 48 17
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Jack, this is Houston. We want you to keep the IMU up and keep the lights on so you can see in there, and leave battery off—battery A off and, at the appropriate time, we'll put it on MAIN A. And we're going to keep the IMU up so's we can get a coarse aline in the LM.
02 09 48 38
Jack Swigert (CMP): All right. Real good. Right now, we're charging battery A. Do you want to discontinue that?
02 09 48 46
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Discontinue the charge on battery A, Jack.
02 09 49 22
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay, Jack. I discontinued charge on battery A. You give me the call and I'll turn BUS TIE AC on.
