Today was the second flight, months apart with many flights between, that my pressure sensor was on the fritz. Pressure readings were all over and occasionally would get the red x and come back. The first time it was for about 5 seconds during takeoff, which I was able to abort and we looked into it and could not duplicate. This time, it was well after I was in cruise and lasted closer to 10-15 minutes.
The sensor is 503851-000 Oil Pressure Sender - Kavlico v2, 1/8-27 NPT, 150 PSI.
Any experience with this before I try to start troubleshooting?
I originally was thinking it was likely a connection with it going straight offline the first time before coming back, but with it fluctuating and going on/offline today, that doesn't seem to be likely to be an oil line or electrical connection issue that I can think of so I'm thinking it's a failing sensor. It's a relatively new install with very few issues so far - all except the D30, that thing is junk.
