Colyn,

 

I have the same problem. I’ve been looking at the power to the converters, checked the securing of all the connections, etc, but I’ve found nothing so far. Are you using the 12 vdc source out of the GRT to power the converters or “aircraft power”? It appears to be the common element. Since both of these indications go to zero at the same time, but nothing else displayed on the engine monitor changes, that could be a plausable cause. I’d love to know if you find something

long as we're talking electrical problems:

 

I have ei capacitive fuel probes with princeton converters and a grt engine monitor (like the chelton engine monitor).

My fuel level on both tanks intermittently shows zero when flying but never on the ground.

 

Any idea where to look?

 

Colyn
