Event or Sport Star. Audio becomes unusable as electrical load is increased and tachometer stops worling. I think goes full scale

If the charging indicator light illuminates in flight, it may indicate a failure of the alternator or that the battery is discharged and the alternator is unable to power installed instruments and charge the battery. This electrical failure can cause the audio to become unusable and the tachometer to stop working due to insufficient power supply.
