Instrument lighting
by Andrew Conroy » Wed May 14, 2014 9:06 pm
The 250 adds the variable resistor between the bulb and airframe ground. The 260 passes the current through the variable resistor before the instrument lights.
Would this require a field approval etc? Somehow previous shops have jury rigged my century 2 autpilot lights and CDI gauge lighting to work but not well.
Other than this modification has anyone added a second panel light rheostat?

I bought the two pot electronic dimmer from aircraft spruce. I have wedge lighting, the " nu lites"
One pot controls pilot side, other side controls lighting on the co pilot side. Avionics are tied into this as well. Works great.
