HSI problems

[gasman222]

I am having trouble with the HSI on my V35. It went out on a recent flight (see pic). I thought it might fix itself, but it has not. I tried deleting and re-installing without success. I see that it is air driven, my suction gauge shows normal pressure. I am unable to fly with HSI like this. Thiss is P3dv4.5. I have installed the latest update. What am I missing. Thanks for your help!

Hello Scott,

Looking at your picture, I think you mean the attitude indicator rather than the HSI? Have you checked its condition in the maintenance hangar (Shift 7)?

Sounds like the engine-driven vacuum pump is okay if the suction gauge is reading at least 4 inHg, but in the Bonanza, you can check individual instruments by clicking the gauge icon on the windshield in the hangar.

Thanks,
Nick

Thanks Nick, that did the trick. I never noticed that gauge in the windshield, nor did I know that you modeled gauge failures as well. BRAVO A2A!!

You're welcome Scott - yes, gauge failures were a new feature we added with the Bo. You can also tap the gauge faces if any of the needles appear to be sticking.

Thanks,
Nick

That isn't all that you added Nick. Circuit breakers pop, instruments go funky, and as I learned this morning, the pitot tube heater fails with no apparent repair.
