Gradually I will get all the gremlins worked out...Here is a new one.
On a trip from 1K1 to home base, KMQY, yesterday, my intercom failed.
While getting ready to depart 1K1, all four headsets let out a loud squeal.
I rebooted the G900X and tried again. My headset 'sort' of worked after that, but was distorted.
Then, in flight about 20 minutes later....loud squeal and my headset failed...dead.
I could trigger the transmitter, but I could not hear anything and Approach could not hear me. I went a good ten minutes hoping Approach would not ask me to do anything while I figured it out.
I had everyone unplug their head phones, and I flew the rest of the trip by using my wife's (co pilot) head set, plugged into the co-pilot jacks, and triggering her mic.
Occasionally it would squeal or threaten to squeal, but it never really flipped out. Seemed to coincide with my son moving around in the back seat.
On the ground at home, I rebooted the G900X several times, and tested the radios with ground.
Pilot side jacks are completely DOA.
The panel was built by Stein and I have an email into Christer...but I don't think this is panel issue.
Any ideas on how I could troubleshoot this ?
