Wired the autopilot to the EFIS (only gets wired to Primary) Also wired the EIU to the EFIS & MFD, put Molex disconnects between both units and the EFIS screens. Finished wiring the pilot-side headphone and mic plugs. Fabricated a 'daisey chain' to power the lights on the lighted rocker switches. These will get connected to one of the perhilion dimmer switches. I was sweating how to mkae these connections so that the switch panel and the switches could be removable for maintenance. There are 'tabs' on the rear of the switch but the are slightly smaller than the 'fast-on' tabs, I thought about soldering and then putting crimp tabs on the wire, but that would have been a wire mess. It turns out that I can compress the terminals and achieve a really tight fit with these crimp terminals. I'm going to do the same tomorrow with the + and - leads for the switches them selves.
Upper switch panel lights wired
I'm looking forward to getting these in the panel and powering them up for a test (maybe next week)
