I have an issue with the electronic edc controllers randomly my boat might kick into gear and the motor will rev instantly…this happens very randomly … sometimes months without an issue.
It’s very dangerous especially when berthing or just warning up the engines
They are TAMD122
I’ve read a lot of threads but can’t see this problem specifically
Doing the normal reset may or may not solve the issue
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Is there anyone that can help?
 
Experienced a couple of cases with similar symthoms, imprecise gearshifts, refusing to go out of gear combined with strange throttle behaviour that after a bit trial and error replacing/ switching components between port and starboard engine turned out to be faulty microswitch inside the gear lever and in the other case also a erratic potmeter.

If you have two helms, does the same occur from both stations?

There was a campaign from Volvo on this many years ago , some boats were prone to it some were not .
Volvo introduced an SPM unit Signal Processing Module that plugged into the edc loom at the throttles , unfortunately it’ is not available at this present time due to typical Volvo parts sourcing and manufacturing companies not supplying old designed parts, a bit like the edc control modules.
