Brief Description:  Fixed wiring conflict with Flap Position Sensor

Fixed wiring conflict with Flap Position Sensor. Last evening I realized from file photos that the flap sensor was wired with white and color striped wires from the sensor connected via d-sub pins to like colored wires of the sensor multi-wire cable to the CU. The Vertical Power Planning Worksheet that I used to wire the J-7 plug called for a white wire for the J-7 Pin 28. This confused me at the time because I was not able to determine which of the two white wires in the bundle was used at the flap sensor. What was logical to me at the time was that one of the white wires was dead and the other was active. Therefore, I connected both wires to the J-7 Pin 28 and problem was solved. But what I should have realized but had forgotten was how I had actually wired the sensor to the cable. This is where the earlier photos came in handy.

The easiest fix was determined to be to change the connection of the sensor white/green strip to connect to the double white wires at the sensor- cable junction. This leaves the white/green wire unused.
