Jensen RV210 Radio Flickering When Landing Gear Is Being Operated

Question:

Goofy new development! When lowering or raising my LCI jacks my Jensen faceplate light flickers/goes out. Comes back when done. Jacks work fine. Just started happening. Any thoughts?

Seeing as this just started happening, my assumption is that a connection has become loose. I recommend pulling your unit out, and double checking all of your connections and ensure that they are not loose.

If that does not solve the issue, you might also consider resetting your unit by taking a pin and depressing the reset button circled in red in the attached diagram.

Additionally, your battery could be on low voltage and when your jacks pull power they might be consuming some power from your stereo. I would check your exact voltage with a multimeter # PT29ZR to know for certain.
