Tracy,

Speaking of EGT's. I am using my Dynon Skyview to read my EGT's and not the EM2.

With the EGT sensors not connected the EGT readout blinks. I asked you if there was a way to stop the blinkin= g and you suggested connecting the sensors to each other which I did, both = the red wire to red and yellow to yellow on the separate sensors as well as= the red to yellow on the individual sensors. None of this stopped the blinking.

Do you have any other suggestions as the blinking is a bit distracting?

Thanks.

Possible it may be going open (thermocouple sensors are normally a sho= rted junction) but also possible you are picking up noise on the leads from= some source. These are millivolt level signals so it doesn't take mu= ch noise to make a wild reading. Keep leads away from high tension wires (spark plug leads) and lines with= a lot of switching current (injector, ignition coil power, etc).
