Can you leave the temp probe disconnected on a 302 and have the 302 function OK?
What symptom would indicate a failing probe?
TIA

302 works fine without probe. It doesn't work *at all* with a malfunctioning probe, or a probe that is partially disconnected. That phone jack connector was a really *dumb* idea.

Yep T8 ran into the same problem with the 302 I have in the little bird. As for finding a stand alone 302 on glider source, none there. I will keep my eyes open, somebody has one laying around after an upgrade.

I have 301/302 for sale $400 in perfect working order. No GPS bug (I suspect it has been fixed, but have not confirmed). Comes with GPS antenna, OAT probe, driver disk. GPS antenna is glued to the top with double sided tape and can be easily removed. Detailed pictures: https://photos.app.goo.gl/iTGRRqeDhDJaxzEc8

I have a 302 that I pulled out of my 26e if you are interested.

Years ago I had the experience when powered up a 302 with the temp probe disconnected that the instrument took a very long time to power up. Multiple minutes instead of a few seconds. I had visions of a dead instrument.

This was during a winter-time DG instrument panel rework. The DG's panel pod was easily removed (loved the ability to do that) BUT the temp probe had to remain in the fuselage. Somewhere in RAS-land someone alerted me to this false-negative. FMMV.
