Default How do I wire MP gauge
Can anyone explain to me how to wire a Vans MP transducer ? The instructions say to use a 4 wire set and tell where to run all four, but my transducer has only two visable terminals. As far as I know it is a Vans transducer.

My installation sheet from Vans shows 4 shielded wires from the transducer:

Black wire to (G) on instrument
Green wire to (-) on instrument
White wire to (+) on instrument
Red wire to (I) on instrument
Shield to (G) on instrument

(I) goes to aircraft bus
(G) goes to ground

Sounds like you may have the wrong transducer.
