Default Kavilco Fuel Pressure transducer

I am replacing the original fuel pressure transducer, a 42100 with a Kavilco 41201 model. This will be conected to the AFS 2500 engine monitor.The original has two wires and the shield is connected to the ground on the analog monitor. The Kavilco has three wires, red, black and green.

The Kavilco was purchaced through AFS but no installation instructions. A call to AFS tech support with the installation instructions wasn't returned.

Has anyone made this update?

Thx in advance

LL

Red is 5 volt power, black is ground, green is signal. See this doc, page 143 http://www.advanced-flight-systems.c...ual%20V5.0.pdf

Maybe this will help.
It is the 2500 manual which indicates 3 wires so maybe using the 5000 series and 2500 manuals you can work it out. Larry

Also if you notice the CPU has 3 wires in from sender.

Default Resistance to Voltage

You need
Resistance to Voltage Field Modifications
THE DOCUMENT WILL EXPLAIN FUEL TANK FLOAT TO CAPACATANCE AND FUEL/OIL/TEMP RESISTIVE TO VOLTAGE MODIFICATIONS.
ONLY MODIFY THE JUMPERS THAT YOU ARE WANTING TO CHANGE.
You can get it from afs or I can email it to you
