EXPBUS COMPATABILITY W/ VANS PREWIRED HARNESS

Post by CESSNA180FL »

I was looking thru the Van's accessory catalog at the pre-wired harnesses. It mentioned that the EXPBUS is not directly compatable. Does anyone have an idea what they mean by this?? Will it work with some mods or what? The pre-wired harnesses look like a huge time saver to me.[/img]

Most builders buy Van's pre-made harness and then modify it to suit their wiring needs. That is what I did.

You probably end up a little extra of this, and not enough of that, but it is a good place to start.

I ended up with something between Van's diagrams and AeroElectrics Z drawings.
