Dear Nigel Charles
I am in Fred Klein's class and never knowingly looked carefully at a micro
-switch - if someone could post a photo of the switch in its location on th
e leg we, and I guess, a number of others would now have the full tutorial!

Simple wire run....wire from main buss to 1 amp circuit breaker or fuse,
then wire from CB/fuse to microswitch at the outrigger, wire from the micro
switch to green light inside cockpit, wire from green light to ground. Dupl
icate using same CB/fuse, run out to microswitch on the other wing and then
run back to a second green light.

I gotta admit that I am challenged by all things electrical, so I would
humbly ask that someone...someone who can handle wiring diagrams, warning
lights, microswitches, and a digital camera (while skipping rope and chewin
g gum at the same time)...please, put together an illustrated tutorial (in
crayon) showing just how this is done.<
The wiring for the outrigger warning lights is very simple. Each light
is connected using a microswitch attached to the outrigger leg. The placeme
nt of the microswitch was decided on such that its lever arm would be fully
depressed once the latch was engaged.
