the VDO panel is getting more
funny. was cruising last night and had the nav lights on, and all was fine for a while. then the red nav light switched itself off after 15 minutes. checked the light bulb, but it was ok. but no voltage at the wires going to the nav light. at the VDO panel the nav lights were switched on, the "mooring light" indicator was glowing dimly red now and the "tri-colour light" indicator was showing it was on. but i had not switched them on! after switching off the nav light the
mooring and tri-colour indicators were off again. looks like some stray
current issue. going to troubleshoot it now, but i hope it's not due to some internal issue with the VDO panel.
