September 6, 20205 yr Hi there, after many hours of practicing i switched from Cessna 152 to 172. Currently i'm facing the issue of shutting down instruments (displays / Garmin) after a couple of minutes. Is this a feature (screensaver ;-)), a known bug or a low-skill-pilots mistake? (did a quick search, found nothing matching). Cheers Michael.
September 6, 20205 yr I have in the past suffered this problem as well. It caused me to stop flying it.
September 6, 20205 yr Is this with running engine? cheers, NiIs U.AMD 5800X3D | 32GB DDR4 RAM @ 3200MHz | RTX 4070 12GB @ 1920x1050px
September 6, 20205 yr Did you have the engine running and the alternators online? You may have run out of battery.
September 6, 20205 yr Author engine is running, alternators online. Garmin is up&running for the first 3-4 minutes, then shutting down. Looks like the Garmin is flashing/pulsing white afterwards. Edited September 6, 20205 yr by iMike_
September 6, 20205 yr Commercial Member Have you tried rebooting? I had this after messing about importing a FSX aircraft. Rebooting the PC fixed it. My FSX Analysis Blog
September 6, 20205 yr Author rebooting doesn't seem to help here. did it a few times. Edited September 6, 20205 yr by iMike_
September 6, 20205 yr Author ARGHH! in this case it seems to be my mistake. Ignition-Switch/Magnetometer was set to "Start" (honeycomb alpha controls). This seems to be a bad idea. Need to get my PPL(A) soon!

It's not your fault a real start switch will kick back to both unlike the honeycomb one,it's super easy to leave on start and suffer flat battery Wayne such Asus Hero Z690, Gigabyte Aorus Master 5080, I914900K, Kraken 360 AIO CPU Cooled, 96 GIGS Corsair DDR5, 32 Inch 4K by 3
