ComNav Commander P2 issue.
My autopilot has started an odd behavior. Every so often, it will make a soft 90deg turn to port. If allowed to continue, it will turn it into a 360deg turn and recover. But it’s annoying to be motoring across a bay and do a random “donut”.

I’ve verified that it’s not a magnetic anomaly because the heading doesn’t shift during this maneuver like it does for example if we turn on the microwave while the AP is on.

Anybody else run into this issue?
