VP-X Pro Wiring

Happy New Year! I'm coming along well on the wiring. I've almost finished wiring all the connectors for the VP-X Pro electronic circuit breakers. Here are the three power connectors.


Here is one of the two d-sub connectors. The wires that go to the trim system are really small (26 AWG). UPDATE: I did continuity checks with my multimeter on all the wires and found a bad trim wire. It had broken where the pin crimps onto the wire. It's really important to get the small wires immobilized quickly to prevent problems like I had. Much better to find it now instead of after everything is attached in the airplane.


Here is some of the scrap from my "practice" crimping and inserting and removing and re-doing.
