    D180 After repair, OAT NOT FOUND

    That's for the three wire OAT probe. The two wire is connected to the EFIS, not the magnetometer

    D180 After repair, OAT NOT FOUND

    With the 2 wire probe, one lead will be to ground, and the other to one of your GP Inputs on the DB37 connector of the EFIS. Since you measured through the probe from the connector, have a look at what pin number the OAT wire is going to (4, 22 or 23), and see which GP input that corresponds to...

    Kavlico pressure sensors reading ~130 psi with zero psi

    You didn't mention what engine you are installing to (Rotax, Lycoming, etc) I've not seen any mention of a resistor on those wires for these sensors. Pin 7 is oil temperature, not pressure.

    Compass 180 deg off

    Mirrored means it is working correctly, just 180 degrees out, like looking in a mirror. Have a look in setup, and make sure the magnetometer is seen in the device list, and online. The ADAHRS module also has an internal magnetometer, which can be reverted to if the MAG-236 magnetometer is not...

    Aileron Position Indicator Stuck

    I had this exact thing on a customers RV-6 a while ago. Trim indicator stuck full one way, but trim operation was fine. It was a broken wire at the trim actuator, one of the position sense wires. It was broken where the builder had put a plastic connector in to enable removal, behind the wingtip.

    Loud squeal on Push to Talk

    Because the squeal is being transmitted, and you can hear it in your sidetone, it is obviously on your mic audio line. This won't be anything anything to do with antenna connections. Personally, I would check the shield grounds of the shielded wires, especially the mic hi and lo wires. I would...

    Intercom, Radio panel, Transceiver.

    If you have power and ground to the units (both the remote transceiver and the control head, then you will get something on the radio screen regardless of network connections. Sounds like you did a force network load, which just reloads the software for each unit from the Skyview. Even if this...

    ILS Glide Slope is alive but no change

    I'll preface by saying I haven't had anything to do with the Bob Archer antennas. The paperwork says they are a VOR antenna, horizontally polarized. Assume that your coax from the nav antenna goes to a diplexer (not a splitter) to separate the NAV and GS into the two BNC inputs on the GNS430...

    OIL TEMP ERRATIC AND READS HIGH

    Did you set your connected sensor up as type 3 on the GP contact you connected it to? The GRT sensor has different resistance values to the original Dynon one. You are correct about the black wire being ground. I would run it back to one of the EIS grounds.
