In this posting i start the preparation work for the Fuel System Panel of the Lockheed L-1011 project. The first step is to break down the original cabling, remove the pin boards that Lockheed used for the switch connections and attach a 8 pin wire-to-board connector to each switch.
The next two images show the original cabling for the L-1011 Fuel System panel.

2. Bottom View
In the next image I pointed to the pin boards. Each switch is soldered to a ping with a number of different connections. The pin boards are not really useful for my project, so remove them.
In order to preserve as much of the original hookup wire, I cut the cables right at the point where they had been soldered to a pin on the small boards.
Once all cables have been cut, I roll them up and tie them together for each switch. Looks pretty mad, but in the next preparation step we will clean that up and attach the 8pin wire-to-board connectors.
