Final Approach
I was up with a safety pilot on Wednesday for an instrument currency run. This was late afternoon, and toward the end, it started getting a bit dark in the cockpit. Around then the EDM-700's display started getting dim, with the elements flickering and some of them, sometimes, not even lighting up. I also had my headlamp on and noticed that when shining the light on the display face, the display came back to normal.
So my first thought was that the unit has a photosensor to regulate brightness depending on ambient lighting, and it's going bad. However, the flickering of the display elements tends to point to a problem with the display itself.
Does anyone have any other ideas? Anyone had this happen?
