Help! Raymarine Linear Drive Clutch...

I am in Tonga on a quick trip around the world. (Check out www.crisismode.org ) My Raymainre linear drive clutch just locked in the engaged position. I had to disconnect the drive to steer to anchor here in Tonga... I replaced the rest of the autopilot system today hoping the computer was to blame, but it wasn't. Heading to the boat now to pull the drive unit out and pull it apart...

Anyone have an ideas??? Don't have the time or money to send this one out or replace it...

Thanks Much for any help.

Todd
