So I found the autopilot brain and shipped it off to be fixed (hopefully).
Of course its location is difficult to reach. Removing those tiny wires (fluxgate inputs etc.) from the screw clamp connections is one thing. Putting them back in with the box in place to just asking for a whole string of expletives.
So, thought I would prepare easier connections with the box out. Wires into the brain's connectors with a plug on the other end (3/3/5 pin). The wires from the boat would have the matching plug and a means to solderless connect those bot wires and matching plug together.
I have Googled this and I am finding all sorts of variations and none that seem to fit the bill.
I hope I described this adequately. Any website that makes this easier to put together?
Thanks in advance.
