Can we talk about intermittent faults on the G1000?
I just spent 12 hours over two days chasing a random AHRS failure flag on a Cessna 182. Everyone kept saying it was the magnetometer, but swapping that did nothing. I finally found a tiny bit of corrosion on a connector pin in the tailcone that was only making contact about 70% of the time. Has anyone else had a G1000 issue that was just a simple, hidden bad connection?

Which connector was it, the one for the AHRS unit itself or something further down the line?

The main power feed. Seriously?

Wait, the main power feed came loose? That's a huge deal (like, the kind of thing you check twice). No wonder nothing was working right.
