Check out the Raymarine forum, I had a quick look and others get 8V on Yellow but not knowing whether its a digital or analogue signal makes it difficult to speculate where the fault lies. Its probably going to be right at the top of the mast

Hi, my ST60+ has done this a few times in the past 10 years. In that time I have had a new masthead unit which hasn’t cured the problem (but did solve another problem). When it occurs, I perform a reset and it returns to normal operation. Worth a try maybe before buying expensive parts?

Thanks it did the trick but i had to test 4 times before i could enter the reset menu so now it's working fine.
