I seem to have a connection problem at the 4-pin power/data plug on my 696. Anyone seen this before?
Looks like the trick is determining if the intermittent connection is in the plug, the socket, or the socket's connection to the motherboard. I suspect the motherboard connection. 696 plugs don't seem to withstand much stress.
Video link below. Watch the serial port #1 input counter on the EFIS screen when my finger moves the plug back and forth.
