Default Eurofighter, set-up problems

I hope someone recognizes this problem. I have set up all of the wiring in the Eurofighter. The instructions were a little help, but not much. Now, almost all servos and electronics are working, with one exception. One of the Y connectors shares a connection withtheleftairleron andthe leftup-down thruster. When Iplug both thruster and airleron into the Y connector, only the airleron works. If I reverse the airleron and thruster connectors, only the up-down thrusteer works. It seemed to indicate that one leg ofthe Y connector was defective. I bought another Y connector, and when I plugged airleron and thruster into the Y, neither worked. I went back to the original Y connector, and again only one leg of the connector worked. I plugged that Y connector into another channel of the receiver, and there was no change.

It's hard to believe that I got two defective Y connectors. If I plugeither airleron or thruster directly into the receiver, both work properly. The problem seems to be either in the Y or other wiring. Is it possible that a defective servo could cause the problem, and not work on a Y connector? I'm beginning to believe that this plane will never fly.

Any suggestions are appreciated. Art M
