    EGT issue

    All my EGTs were working fine until now. I uploaded V14 and right near the end of the process I got a red flag and an error that went away before I could read it, Now EGT1 is red X. Checked all the connections. Should I try a new V14 upload?

    Skyview backup battery

    What is the typical life span of the backup battery? I need to get the third battery in less than a year. First one died while building. Second one was fine untill I installed V13 and then it stopped charging even though it passed the backup test. Can't believe these shouldn't last longer that that!

    Backup Battery Shutdown "Abnormal"

    Getting a red X on backup battery after installing v13 and Skyview claiming battery fail. Checked battery and ran battery test and it passed OK. Replaced battery with new one and get the same stuff. Worked great until I install V13. As Microsoft would say.. Its not a bug but a feature instead?
