Brief Description:  Misc Wiring To-dos

Expecting some more key wiring components in the mail later today, so this morning I took care of some odds-n-ends that were ready to go.

First up, I measured, fabricated and spliced in two wires that connect the flap motor (behind the pilot's seat) to where the flap switch will reside on the instrument panel. I also wrapped the wires and the ADAHRS wire bundle inside of a section of braided expandable wrap which will help control the wires as they run under the upper fuselage longeron doubler (aka flat area the canopy rests on and the latches extend through).

Next, I combined the 5 grounding leads coming off the ECU into 2 PIDG connectors and plugged them into the grounding block on the firewall.

Finally, I added 4 electrical terminator nipples to the following wire terminations: Master Switch wire where it attaches to the master solenoid, the two 8 AWG ring connectors on either end of the ammeter shunt, and the terminator ring on the 8 AWG wire where it attaches to the grounding block on the firewall.
