Red X over the left fuel indicator

Post by JRoosa »

I had an intermittent Red X over my left fuel indicator appear on today’s flight. Everything else appeared fine. Is this a sensor / probe failure? Corrective action or advice would be appreciated. Thanks. I have a 2009 DA-40 w/ a Garmin 1000

Could be a bad sensor, a bad connection, water in the tank, ...

There are a fair number of older threads on this topic. Here's a link to one of them and another one here.
