--> RV6-List message posted by: "Ralph E. Capen" <recapen@earthlink.net>
Noone responded on the first attempt
Fellow listers,
I am getting an error message stating that my internal battery needs service in
my GX60. The unit continues to function - I just have to press the msg button
every few minutes.
This only started since I upgraded the datacard - that may be coincidental though.
Anyone else seen this? Is it home-repairable...with the correct battery? I have
done some miniature soldering so I could probably do it......
The archives show some of the portable units needing a similar repair - being done
by the owner. Sure would save some RV gas money!
Thanks,
Ralph Capen

Just called Garmin-AT - got lucky.....
There is a difference between dead battery and needs service....the needs service
indicates that the unit is charging the battery and could vent into the system.
If the battery was dead I would have gotten a different error message.
According to the service technician......
Good news is that since my airplane has not flown - it is still covered by warranty...great
- allows me to test prior to first flight.

Dear Listers,
In the United States, Thursday is our National day of Thanksgiving. Many of us
will be traveling to be with our families and friends and share in generous feasts
of plenty.
Many have expressed over the last couple of weeks how thankful they are for the
Aviation Lists here on the Matronics servers and for all of the assistance and
comradery they have experienced being a part of the Lists. I think one of my
favorite comments is when someone says something like, "Its the first thing
I do in the morning while I'm having my morning coffee!". That's a wonderful
tribute to the purpose and function of these Lists. Its always great to hear
I'm not the only one that jumps out of bed each morning to check my List email!!
I'm not sure why, but the number of Contributions have been a little low this year
compared to years past. Hopefully people are just waiting until the last
minute to make their List Support Contribution this year.
Won't you take a minute today and show your appreciation for these Lists and for
their continued operation and upgrade? Don't make me beg... :-) lol

Thanks to everyone that already made their Contribution!
