In the Stein built harness I’m installing, there are numerous ground wires with ring terminals attached, in the Avionics bay. I don’t see this represented in the KAIs, and have the latest stuff I can dig up. I don’t know where to hook them up, as this isn’t shown in the documentation I’ve been looking at.

Any ideas?

Tim, have you checked the wire designations against the wiring diagram? If you do a search for the wire designations you’ll probably find the termination points. If they’re large stud-size terminals, they might be for power and ground, like in the attached screenshot.

If they look like shield drains, they get connected to the Garmin connector back shells. Something like the pic below. Not sure why they would not be terminated by Stein’s group but someone else mentioned this a while back on FB.

Here they are, not long enough to go anywhere, but with ring terminals. The shield grounds are green and already there. These are black.

Do you have the full wiring diagram? Those are searchable on it.

My bad. I found it...

They may be the grounds that attach to the Rotax fuse box in the engine compartment.

Have a look at the numbers and the corresponding drawing for fitting the engine.

Success!

Those were the last wires. No smoke!
