(Both discrete inputs 
grounded)
Check Unit ID strapping and set to a valid ID
Hardware failure
Return unit to Garmin for service
Calibration
Zero-Foot Lock
Average frequency of 
zero-foot signal is 
larger/smaller than 
allowable 
frequencies
Improper antenna 
connections
Check antenna installation and all cable 
connections and retry calibration.  Note there are no 
assert log entries for this fault.
Antenna cables are 
too long or calibration 
completed while 
aircraft is in air
Calibrate unit while on ground.  Note there are no 
assert log entries for this fault.
Zero-Foot Cal
Zero-foot point not 
set
Calibration not 
complete
Calibrate the unit.  Note there are no assert log 
entries for this fault.
POST (Power On 
Self-Test)
PLL Register
After programming, 
read-back of the PLL 
register values does 
not match what was 
sent from the CPU
Internal 
communication error
Cycle power to unit.  If fault persists, return unit to 
Garmin for service.
RF Self-Test
The self-test signal is 
not within the 
acceptable frequency 
range
 Improper antenna 
connections
Check antenna installation and all cable 
connections
Internal failure
 Download the assert log and send to Garmin for 
diagnosis.  If fault persists, return unit to Garmin for 
service.
Sensor Boot
Sensor processor 
software not 
successfully loaded
Internal 
communication error
Cycle power to unit.  If fault persists, return unit to 
Garmin for service.
Various 
(see 
)
Numerous tests 
identified in this table 
are run during Power 
On Self-Test (POST).  
Failure of these tests 
is identified as a 
POST fault during 
power up and also 
identified by the fault 
name in the fault log.
