[C320-list] Wheel pilot and Crazy Ivans

[marshall lucas]

Last year we had the same proble with the ST4000.  I took the unit apart and 
cleaned and reseated the wires.  That was last spring.  The auto pilot 
worked fine the rest of the year.  Lets see what happens this year.

  Thanks to everyone for their input.  I am replacing my
battery bank this Spring since it is weak (unable to
provide adequate storage of energy).  Many of you have
suggested a voltage issue (bad wire, bad contact, etc),
and as I think about it, a bad battery bank would also
result in the same low voltage.  Also, the problem
progressively got worse, and I assume the battery bank
health declined over the summer.  So, stand by until May
when I launch with new batteries.  I'll report back to the
forum with the results.  Alan
