Yesterday, I checked all wiring to the transponder and transceiver. All hook ups are correct. I then disconnected the transceiver antenna at the radio and the symptom went away. Hooked it back up and when I transmitted it lit up the ident transmit button. Both the antenna coax cables are run together down the fuselage side to behind the seat where they split up again. I think I may need to run one antenna down one side of the fuselage and the other down the opposite side. The way they are, I feel the transponder coax is picking up the transmit signal of the radio tricking it into lighting up the ident button. .
