This RV-12 has no landing lights installed. I am helping to install strobes so we were verifying which wing connectors are energized by the strobe and landing panel switches.
Solid-ON landing light (no pulse) works fine and applies 12v+ to the correct wing connection. But when we switch to pulse-landing it blows the 7.5 amp fuse. The fact that solid-on works means there's no issue with a wire short between the wing and the switch panel. Could there be something fishy in the control panel internals?
Is there a known issue I've missed? I do have the SB on reversed pins for nav/strobe but that does not seem to be relevant for this problem.
Should I report this problem to Vans? This is an early RV-12 build ( kit#2).
Thanks as always!
