(Bill Watson) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 01:14:13 PM PST US From: Bill Watson Subject: AeroElectric-List: 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.
