EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS: The approved tail position light assembly should be mounted vertically and as far aft
on the aircraft as possible.
CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS: The LED tail light assembly is designed with 6 vertical rows of 12 LED’s. Each
row has 2 segments consisting of 6 LED’s. If any one segment fails, the unit will continue to meet the light output
requirements of TSO-C30c Type III. If 2 segments fail, the unit must be replaced (see Fig. 1).
INSTALLATION PROCEDURES: The following
information is to assist you in installing a Whelen tail
position light.
1. Choose the appropriate 70805 ( ) series
replacement light assembly which is most
applicable to your aircraft.
2. Remove the old light, locate and save the existing
+28 VDC lead and (-) ground leads. Clean and
prep ends as required.
3. Use existing mounting holes and hardware.
Note: If a special adaptor plate is required,
contact Whelen Aviation Division for
requirements.
4. Connect t he e xi st ing + 2 8 V DC le ad t o the w hit e 2 0
AWG lead on the input cable assembly (supplied
with light assembly). Connect the existing ground
lead to the black 20 AWG wire on the input cable
assembly. If a chassis ground wire exists on the
Aviation
aircraft, connect it to the chassis ground wire

assembly. Both leads must be connected by FAA
approved techniques using approv ed hard w are.
5. Make sure the existing system is equipped with an
appropriate sized breaker.
6. Remove two #4-40 screws from tail light assembly.
7. Install light assembly and insure that all leads are
clear of any obstructions and ty-wrap as required.
Secure light assembly using approved vibration
resistant hardware methods.
8. Re-mount the lens onto the assembly. Attach lens
with mounting screws (provided) using a torque
value of 2 - 4 in./lbs. to prevent lens fracture.
9. Check all avionics systems for interference from
this installation.
10. When waterproofing the assembly to the aircraft,
apply aviation-approved single part silicone (RTV)
or equivalent around the periphery only. RTV
should never be used between the rear surface of
the light assembly and its mounting surface.
11. Update aircraft records, complete Form 337 and
obtain FAA field approval for installation.
