Definitely not the probe or its connections. Checked those before installing brand new probe from Advanced, with very tight spade connections. Same problem with new probe.

Developed isolated high EGT on cylinder #3, reading 300 degrees higher than the other three EGT's ( 1650 compared to 1300-1400 on the others). Upon initial startup, #3 EGT immediately displays 600...
What is involved in upgrading a 4500 to "5000" capability? Plug and play? Compatible mounting? Cost?
Thanks,

It may be helpful to others to report a problem which was nicely diagnosed by Rob Hickman immediately upon my reporting a fluctuating oil temperature indication. After months of normalcy, the oil...
I am currently flying XM weather receiver displayed on Garmin 496. Is it possible to transfer the connection from the 496 to my AFS4500?

AF4500 with tach sensor in Slick mag. Previously stable (50 hours), but now fluctuates wildly. Connection very tight. Sensor problem?
You are absolutely correct! Loose spade terminal re-connected properly and the tach reading is as it should be. Many thanks,
Kenneth.
Tach reading in the 4500 has become very unstable, fluctuating wildly and randomly, and pegs at 3000 for much of the time. The analog tach remains stable and true. I assume that this is more likely...
Please! Doesn't do it.
How does one "zoom" terrain features in SV? Currently, the mountains are fairly diminutive, and I do not see a menu item for re-setting the zoom. Altering the zoom on the map does not change the SV...
Is a retrofit upgrade possible/available?
But, to be perfectly clear, any of those options could be selected and displayed on the slave 3400 MFD regardless and independently of what is displayed on the primary display? For instance, with the...
I have a 4500 Deck with Engine, Map, and AOA, and am considering adding a 3400, principally to (independently) display a map. Would a "slave" MFD serve this purpose, or does it merely mirror what is...
Trying to update tach & Hobbs times in retrofitted 4500. Unable to open NVRAM.AFD file in either Mac or PC. Can this be updated through the EFIS? If so, what is the pathway?
Thanks,

When will the SV software be available?

I have found it effective to use a solder-type DB-9 connector, creating an "RS232 bus" by soldering a short wire across the top row of female terminal stubs, and connecting the serial cable to this....
Newly using the 4500 Deck, I respectfully offer two suggestions for future consideration:
1. When using the Map it would be very useful if frequently used waypoints could be stored in a separate...
