TIL the hard way that one bad crimp can ground a whole fleet

Was tracing a nav fault on a Cessna 172 last Tuesday, turned out a loose coax crimp behind the antenna was causing a 40 dB signal drop per the bird's manual. Has anyone else seen a single connector failure take down an entire avionics stack, or am I just lucky?
