Something that was a real "Doh!" moment was that I realised I had painted the alternator bracket...I.e where the ground path was for the alternator...The resistance of the paint caused a whole bunch of noise that would do little annoyances like shut the IFR GPS off while on an instrument approach...of course it would take 10 seconds or so to reset..and then do it again..Not very pleasant!
Just a thought...I.e the connection of the alternator to the engine block is a vital connection.

Anodized alternator brackets can cause the same problems. Guess how I know.
