My autopilot shorted out (it keeps triggering the breaker when I try to turn it on).
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot ?
it's 2000 vintage so I'm considering to replace it as well.
My new chartplotter is Simrad but I can switch to Garmin because they make it easier to work with navionics which is my choice of maps provider.
i'd prefer to stay in the same ecosystem so it should be Simrad or Garmin (if I switch) autopilot.
I understand i will need the pump, computer, control panel and probably the compass unit, right?
Anyone did such upgrade on the same or similar boat?
Which brand/model did you use?
Thanks for any useful info you can provide
