    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") Dick Maddux 912UL
