MFD fuse pop out

[Wildenschild]

We have an issue with our Mooney Ovation 2 year 2005 with Garmin 1000 avionics. It started when the throttle was reduced, the engine instrument fuse (MFD fuse)  poped out. Now it pops out all the time. Has anybody experienced that problem on your speed machines?

You likely have a chaffed wire behind the panel that is shorting out somewhere. Maybe where the engine control cables go through if popping was reproducible moving mixture but could be anywhere. Look for signs of burning and arcing till you find it.

Thanks for all your input. The plane is in the workshop now, I will let you know how they fix the problem.

Lars,

See if you can get a picture of the cause?

That is a pretty spooky failure.

It was the tag sensor (RPM pick-up)on the LH mag. Do you Guys know the part number?

This bandit caused the issue.
