My EX500 is coupled with my IFD540 and a Garmin 430.  Has been working well and is typically selected to the 430. I typically have it set in "Track Up". Recently, It appear to be in "North Up" and the airplane symbol is too North up but moving on the depicted route in the appropriate direction.  Looks like I am often in a 90' crab???  Looked at settings and they seem to be correct. Happens regardless of 540 or 430.  Any suggestions?

Our Tech Support team asked if you could call your local Avidyne dealer so that they could start troubleshooting.

Well....., I never got around to correcting this issue.  For whatever reason I simply reracked the EX500 with contact cleaner the other day and BINGO... works fine. 

While I was in the mood, I exchanged the GNS430W with the IFD440.  Now I am all Avidyne...., love it.
