FADEC

May 1, 2005

I did a bit more wiring today for the FADEC. I spoke to the guys at Aerosance about cutting some of the wires shorter, and they had no problem with it. I also have a Power Sense B lead, which I don’t need for my HSA. They said I could cut it off. I trimmed it as short as I could and shrink wrapped the end. I wired in all the warning lamps today. These are FADEC Caution, FADEC Warning and Fuel Pump.

Here is the connector that goes to the warning lamp bar.

I also partly wired the Enable A and B switches. These replace a standard ignition switch. Enable A & B are grounded to turn off the system, similar to Magnetoes. I guess they do this for easier retrofit into other aircraft. I still need to add the ground leads.
