I am going to replace a 396 with a 696 just purchased. The plugs I know are different. It looks like the easiest install will be to cut the current 396 plug off and cut the 696 cord and splice the proper wires. This appears easier then routing all the wires on a new 696 cord to the required locations behind the panel.
I have experience in Marine wiring. Normally I would use butt connectors with a water proof shrink rap over the connector. Is this appropriate for a aircraft. The other option would be to solder the wires and then shrink rap them. Is there a preferred method for aircraft?
