Pro tip: Check your DB9 connector pins before assuming a bad LRU

Chased a garbled VOR display for 3 hours last Wednesday on a King Air 200 only to find pin 5 on the nav receiver harness was bent flat, has anyone else wasted a day on a simple pin issue like this?

Is three hours really a wasted day though? Sounds like you caught it pretty quick once you looked close enough.

Man, I used to skip the connector check too. Not anymore after that.
