David,

I was having the same problem so I plugged Raymarine ST4000+ into the search 
engine on my phone and found a blog entitled "My autopilot steers like a 
drunken sailor". It gave a list of settings to change in the menu which I 
did and it solved the problem. I have been looking and can't find the blog 
but the next time I'm on the boat I'll open the menu and send the settings 
to you.
I should have written them down.

Thanks for the tips on the starter button. I will look into the wiring next 
week when I'm on the boat again.

I have a problem with my Autohelm 4000+. When I press the Auto button, the 
unit oversteers, oversteers more, oversteers more still (10-15 degree 
increase with each swing). I stop it as it starts to get violent, so I don't 
know if it would ever stop or not. The boat was moved from Maryland to 
Massachusetts, so I ran the compass deviation correction and I tried turning 
the Gain way down...no luck. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

David Prudden
