Gotta ask - why did you parallel the power to 1 x C/B ? That's not the way to do it, you need independent power to each servo so that IF one goes awol it will not impact the other one - makes troubleshooting a lot easier too. Wiring the way you have could, in some circumstances, result in both...

Thank you for being humble enough to say that.😉

Charly - I’d just connect 1of them temporarily to find out & also use a heat gun to confirm ops, applies to the EGT & CHT.

I'll call you a bit later this morning ;)

Riseric, I’ll pm u a diagram of what i use - is easy to follow & uses the existing 15 pin dsub connector numbers so its a plug & play solution & can be kept for future use if ever needed. No need to mess with anything else, just plug into the a/p panel connector.

I have a diagram on how to do that if you want, it uses the same pin numbers as the 15 pin connector ?

A while ago, before the SB, I had several customers with issues with the a/p panel. My temp solution to enable them to fly was to make a plate, same size as the panel, & mounted a biased switch on it to just control pitch trim servo (pitch was all they really needed) while the issue was being...

FWIW I’d do is try your a/p panel in another plane - NOT a ‘loaner’ in your 8. If there is a problem in your 8 other than the a/p panel it could cause damage to the loaner unit, if your a/p panel does have a fault it will show up in the plane you test it with.

V-tail - FYI, altitude is sent from the Dynon into the IFD, helps a lot when you want to do GPS VNAV approaches 😉.

I’d use the Maker Plane AMX-2A or the AP60 Audio Mixer, they are very small😉.

Sure, stay with your stool - I'm moving on to the the next job ;)

They’ll work for sure however more $$$ and you have to cut off the connectors on the supplied probes = a lot more work too. I usually go for cost & labour effective solutions 😉

I know some call us 'coneheads' but a 'mind reader' ?? NO.🤣

That's NOT them & 'blue' is usually for ~18-16 awg ? Thermocouple wiring that Dynon uses are in the 22-24awg ? range & need the 'red' ones to give a better outcome. Ps - I never have never used the supplied ones until just recently on a local RV- the 'new' Dynon spades are better than...

FWIW - I've never used "shielded wire" for Pitot heat power supply (16awg) & never had any issues (also in my composite IFR plane) ;)

I hear you but are you using the AMP (TE) brand ?

As GKC said & I've posted several times on this forum about the reasons why some are having issues - IMO, the only simple cost effective connectors (female side is already on the probe) are the AMP brand however you should use a double jawed crimper & nowadays I also spray the connectors with...

Ken, I totally agree 'we' keep talking about EFIS 'failures/reboots' issues & my method is to have an autopilot that can be driven by either the EFIS system OR an IFR Gps & have power available directly from the battery bus - just following something Bob Nuckolls wrote about some time ago. A...

Small detail that needs correcting - 1745689170293.png Pin 18 is highlighted & incorrect description? why ? Just saying 😉. ps - it’s going to the MAP in your plan.
