I'm having the same problem. Re-racking the GEA71 seemed to work for one flight but that no longer helps. All other engine instruments are fine, just the CHT and EGT's that are X'd out.

Replacing the reference thermcouple in the GEA71 backshell (~$40 plus $240 of labor) resolved the problem on my plane. Glad I didn't have to get a new config module or GEA71. I was quoted $700 + labor to swap for a refurbished GEA71.
