## Discrepancy

(CAN) ALTERNATOR WENT OFF LINE AND WOULD NO LONGER SUPPLY POWER. THE ALTERNATOR WAS REMOVED FOR REPLACEMENT. THE ALTERNATOR WAS RETURNED TO THE MANUFACTURER FOR WARRANTY CONDSIDERATION. THE MANUFACTURER 9SKYTRONICS) CONTACTED ME AND INFORMED ME THAT THE ROTORS AND STATORS WERE FRIED. THE REASON WAS UNKNOWN. RAM AIR WAS CONNECTED AND FUNCTIONING.
