I have an ST 60 from 2002
I had it down and replaced the cups and direction pointer last year and it seemed fine
I noticed last month that the direction seemed to be reading off by about 20 degrees so I thought it needed to recalibrate ...I followed the instructions, I had trouble getting it to linearise but it seemed to work out ok, even though not all the sequence of button pressing had the expected results as per the manual.
Last time out it seemed to be a bit ' confused', and having come to boat today now the needle is just spinning round and round. Wind speed looks about right
I can't see anything in the fault finding in the manual to cover this.
I can see a few threads on this and scuttle but over the years, with a range of different suggestions.
I am thinking possibly corrosion on one of the pins, but it's not clear to me that this can be fixed, or possibly that the transducer has gone and I'll need a new MHU
Any suggestions ?
