    Intermittent amperage spike causing engine aural warning

    Do you know how to re-configure for a positive reading? That makes more sense to me.

    Intermittent amperage spike causing engine aural warning

    I've just flown again with no issues after thoroughly buffing the contacts on the shunt and re-applying the DeoxIT liquid. Your question of what the ammeter is actually measuring puzzles me and so far I don't have access to a Flight Design CTLS schematic. I suspect that it is showing bus...

    Intermittent amperage spike causing engine aural warning

    The anomely does not occur at low RPM. It only happens inflight and just for a few seconds. The ammeter drops to the bottom of the scale and hits the red line (approx. -22 amps), then sets off the engine alarm which can be silenced with the silence button that pops up. Within 2 or 3 seconds...

    Intermittent amperage spike causing engine aural warning

    There is an external VR that I replaced that seems to have fixed the generator light that was flickering on at low RPM's. But the intermittent amperage spike seems to be unrelated. I believe the redline on the ammeter is minus 22 because it flashes for 2 or 3 seconds, enough time to see it...

    Intermittent amperage spike causing engine aural warning

    My CTLS is sounding the engine alarm when the ammeter hits the redline briefly. I've tried cleaning the connections on the shunt with no luck.
