I love flying!
Hi
I'd appreciate any help diagnosing my OAT failure.
I have an EFIS-D10A installed with a type 2 OAT probe. It's functioned well and accurately for about 3 years but over the last few weeks it stubornly reports -25 degrees Celsius (-13 Fahrenheit).
I've checked all connections and can't find anything obviously wrong. The probe is connected through the EDC-10 remote compass and that's working ok. I've done the "headphone test" - the EFIS only records a compass swing when the headphones pass the EDC so that says to me the cabling between the EDC in the rear of the aircraft and EFIS is ok.
I suspect the probe may have failed. Any ideas or other checks I can perform?
