| Subject: | Yesterday, I just had my first electrical system failure... |
...and it was completely a non-event with my Z-14. After takeoff from
Pittsburgh's KAGC and in the soup associated with the cold front between
me and my destination in NC, one of my low voltage lights lit up. I
looked at the voltage readings for each bus, it was immediately apparent
I was running down the battery on bus2. Nothing else seemed amiss. So I
cross connected the 2 buses, the voltage light went out and flew on for
another 1.3 hours. I landed with 2 charged batteries, everything else
working but no charging available on bus2 connected to the 20amp alternator.
Problem determination begins tomorrow following the troubleshooting
procedures for the LR3 controller. I will report back.
Thanks all!
