Masthead and
instruments have worked very well for years, until this year.
First it became intermittent, then seemed to due completely.
I took the masthead down and the unit was responding, but with improper voltages.
I ordered a masthead circuit card.
In the meantime the u it came back to life,
wind was OK direction was way off, always to starboard.
Then it died again.
I replaced the card yesterday.
Now, when it works it is OK.
BUT frequently it will not
work. The display shows it has
power and blinks like normal.
Then, after some 5 to 20 seconds it will start to display, or NOT.
If I turn it off and back on it MAY, after some seconds, start to
work, or NOT.
Baffled in
St Martin.
It seems the
wiring is OK, or it would never work??
The
depth display is kn the same Sea Talk
power bus and works every time, instantly.
I don't believe I had this time delay before.
The only thing I can think to do is swap the master and slave displays, but did that before with no joy.
Any suggestions?
