Hey all, I have a 1989 Piper Mirage. The pressurization dump squat switch is possible failing but I cannot find a proper replacement. The correct switch would be 87545-006 (Use: H11-1622) (M/N: 81648) Piper PA46-350P Eaton Squat Switch

The one available is 87545-006 (Use: H11-1622) (M/N: 81640) Piper PA46-350P Eaton Squat Switch.

Note the difference in M/N number....it must reflect the difference in the number of plug pins. The M/N 81648 has 16 pins and 12 in use, which is what my plane has. The M/N 81640 is what they are offering as the proper replacement but it only has 9 pins and 6 in use. This is not compatible. And without a full wiring diagram to determine if the wires can be moved to the old plug we are not able to replace the switch.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks
