Worst shift of my career happened last Thursday on a King Air 200

We had a radar altimeter glitch that took me 8 hours to trace back to a single corroded pin in a cannon plug under the floorboards. Has anyone else had a simple issue turn into a whole-day job like that?

Man I heard some guys say those King Air pins are notorious for that.

Nose pins fail way more often than the mains.

Yeah but which pins exactly are we talking about... the ones on the main gear or the nose? I've heard different stories from different guys.
