Question
WallyGator12000
I apologize if this has been covered before, did a search and I can't find anything. I have a Minnkota Powerdrive V2 with an i-pilot installed (not factory). Came with the boat I bought this summer. It has worked great for the past 2 months until this weekend, the GPS started failing while running advanced auto-pilot. When I turn the adv. auto-pilot on, everything works fine, until I push either of the turn controls to adjust the destination. When I do this, the remote goes blank, the GPS signal strength drops to 0, and then it jumps back up to full strength. Problem is, in the meantime the adv. auto-pilot shuts off and it switches to regular auto-pilot. This also happens 50% of the time when I try and use spot lock, the GPS simply turns off and the spot lock does as well, and then the GPS signal strength bounces back.
Anyone else had this problem? I know I most likely have to send the unit in to Minnkota, but I'm not really willing to do that until the season is over. Any insight/ideas would be great. I have already tried having the unit "re-learn" the remote, that didn't solve anything.
Thanks!
