You may have a chafe on one of the resolver, deviation or flag lines between the 430 and the CDI which shorts to ground with aircraft vibration. In a GNS430 installation, all of the signal lines are referenced at +2.5V, so you'll get full-scale deflection if one side goes to ground. This could also be a bad solder sleeve on one of the screened cables.
