Hello everyone.

We are currently at sea, and have just gone to engage our autopilot and we have a fault.
The screen says something like rudder data missing?
I emptied the locker above the rudder compartment to find everything as it should be. Nothing loose and no leaks.
I called for the autopilot to be engaged and as soon as it was, the motor began to run, but unfortunately , the drive shaft didn’t move.

I’ve googled the life out of it, hoping to find a solution, such as a shear pin failure if something similar, but I’ve found nothing.

Can anyone please shine any light on this?
Very many thanks,
Pedro.
