It?s mostly my PFD, but has happened on the MFD as well. Like I said, it doesn?t stop responding to touch... you just have to touch it in a number of places until it registers correctly. I guess the sensors are around the perimeter of the panel. I need to get another can of compressed air and really try to blow dust out to see if that will improve things.

I had myMFD freeze up with red X?s and auto pilot flags went off but it stayed engaged! Reset on the ground! Garmin said it was a 232 problem on the can bus connection to the MFD. Found no issues has not repeated its self. Pad worked great!

Never had any Xs. Both screens just froze. Keep in mind all the attitude and heading info continued to function normally so I did not have a flight safety issue. The GTN 650 did its work and had comm 1 available. I was not able to do anything with my transponder or comm two which are both remotely operated. The transponder continued to work, but if requested I was unable to change the squawk code. Just any touch commands went off line, Weird? I sent the logs to Garmin for their review. Note: this system has functioned flawlessly for 2.5 years. So not concerned unless I get a repeat. But this is the reason for a backup that does not run the same software. The G5 has its own and along with Garmin Pilot on my mini I pad It gives redundancy for situations like this, no matter how rare of an occurrence.
