Techkeeper Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Just became a recent member of R.F. Lots of interesting stuff and hours of reading to do. I am an engine repair shop in Nova Scotia; Canada. I am currently installing a Rotax 912 UL in a Savannah (2010). There are a couple wires I am having trouble with behind the dash panel if anyone can help. I have pics of the wires in an email and will try to attach later. Tks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Techkeeper Posted July 19, 2017 Author Share Posted July 19, 2017 Here are the pics of the wires in question. In the first image I am not sure about the red and white wires attached together. in the second image the black wire is ground like the rest but the other wire im not sure about. They also have different ends than the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Communications Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I have a schematic somewhere but there should be one in your build manual. Just follow the wires from the connectors and see where they go to. I can post you a wiring diagram tonight when I get home if you want. I didnt use the supplied wiring harness in the kit I tossed it and made my own from Tefzel wire not crappy auto wire 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Techkeeper Posted July 19, 2017 Author Share Posted July 19, 2017 The one in the build manual was tiny and had no wire colours or wording on it. The rest of the wires were labeled and easy to figure out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Communications Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 this is what I used to rewire mine. You should be able to follow the wires from point to point to find out what they are 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MajorTom Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 made my own from Tefzel wire not crappy auto wire I will have to do the wiring by myself. What to hold against automotive grade cables? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Communications Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Tefzel is made for aircraft. It has tinned copper wire inside the insulation is much tougher than auto wire and less prone to cracking also is much more fire resistant Its also more expensive but just far better wire 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
