Subject: | Harness for "old" SMD electronic modules |
I have an older engine that uses the 965-358 modules and have been dealing
with ignition problems over the years that has mainly been broken wire
related.
If and when I have to replace a module I learned in a recent Rotax class
that these modules are hard to come by and very expensive. A recent vendor
catalog had them listed for over $1300 vs about $950 for a current
edition.(probably NOS if they still have them)
Saw one on EBAY for $400 but what kind of shape is it in and how many
hours under what conditions ?
I ran across a man in England that makes a "plug and play" harness to adapt
the new modules to the' Plug and pin" system on my old engine. This would
allow me to use the new modules on my old engine and they would be
available should I have a failure. So ,I ordered the harness which should be
arriving soon. This harness is not cheap as the parts from Rotax are expensive
but at least the harness will allow me to continue flying.
Installation from cowling off to cowling on takes about an hour according
to the maker.
Thought I would pass this on so that should anyone else in this situation
be interested at least you would have an out. Let me know and I will pass
on the gentleman's name and address. He said he will make these on an
individual basis as there are currently 3 different module systems I believe. My
engine used the first generation system (after the "box")
