I?ve had problems with cht probes coincidentally with parking the plane outside for a week both at sun n fun last year, a Florida trip this year. In both cases after takeoff was surprised to find the readings quite low like 300 & erratic vs 1300ish. Received a tip from someone about heating up the base of the probe to near red hot three times between cooling off. It actually worked and brought the probe to accuracy after failing on its own to come back. I have drip loops at the probes so moisture would not run into the probe but somehow condensation must be entering.
Now recently my oil temp probe is erratic and wondering about trying that but hesitant since it normally doesn?t see temps that high as a torch might bring. Anyone with oil temp probe symptoms?
