Brief Description:  Tie wire bundles and wire runs and transponder wir

relabled the fwd terminal block

Positioned the wires on to the appropriate studs and started the zip tie process to bundle the wires back up. These will later be secured with rubber adel clamping but this keeps things tidy for now.

Gathered and zip tie inside the left and right gear leg towers

Ran 3 separate wires from the fwd terminal block area to the control stick wire block. I was going to use wires from the panel instruments and run them but decided I needed them positioned now so I used 18awg wire I had on hand. I labled them for the left and right front strick buttons and the front and rear stick index buttons.

Located the fuel boost pump power wire in the harness mess and spliced a smaller wire into it for the green indicator light on panel. Hopefully this light will illuminate while pump is on and remind me to turn after climb out.

lots of time spent staring at this wire mess trying to determine what needs to be hooked up and what neds to be run still. Hopefully I can get this done before too much longer. I need to decide how to run wire to battery for items like the internal clock on EMS and my aux power port that I want power to w/o turning on master switch. This will allow the clock to stay current and also allow me to charge the battery with low voltage trickle charging.

Finaly found out what I was doing wrong in the mounting of the transponder harness. Once I mounted the harness plate to the outside of the tray instead of inside it, my transponder will seat all the way and lock in like its supposed to.
