Now I think I know what it is I have decided on an upgrade. The autopilot brains, head and giro are the only instruments never to have been upgraded and lag behind the rest of the system. The fix is only supposed to be a temporary one and we intend to carry on sailing for many years yet. Athough the fix may be fine for a long time I would prefer something I could rely on and possible fix it as a back up.
As we are in Turkey and the VAT rate is lower and I managed to haggle a deal as cheap as anything I found online I have decided to bite the bullet and upgrade. It is expensive but for us living aboard and using it all the time it makes sense. They can also fit it with a 2 yr guarantee tomorrow.
Thank you for everyone who helped and contributed to this thread as it helped me learn more and now I know exactly where all my auto pilot cable is and more about how it works.
Thank you
