Again this was for both the 530 and the 155, and they failed nearly simultaneously.įast forward to September 2018, and I had a separate mechanic look at it since I had moved across the country from NC to CA. It failed gradually over the course of about another month or two where initially it worked, then it would only work in close proximity to the airport, and then it stopped working all together.

After about a month, I could see that the glideslope was slowly starting to fail again. This fixed the problem initially, and I don't know what other troubleshooting they did since replacing the splitter initially fixed the problem. They did some troubleshooting and replaced the coaxial splitter that has 1 input from the antenna and provides 4 outputs to the 530 and 155 with both a localizer and glideslope signal. In about August 2016, I took it to an avionics shop. I can't clearly remember exactly what was happening since this was approximately June 2016 This would occur on both the 530 and the 155. Sometimes it would work, sometimes it would not. When I bought the plane, the ILS glideslope would be very weak. The NAV/COMs in my airplane consists of a GNS 530W and a King KX-155. I have been having an issue with my ILS glideslope since I bought the plane ~2 years ago and still have not figured it out and I'm hopefully that some members might have some ideas that I haven't thought about yet. This is my first post, but I've been reading and learning a lot from this site for years.
