I installed my fluxgate on the bulkhead just forward of the mast.

Jake,

If I remember right the fluxgate is supposed to be mid-ships, but that might 
not be the problem.  You can find the manual on the Ray website.  Mine is in 
the wet locker on the recommendation of Chef Dave.

  Chuck,



  I located the fluxgate in the aft portion of the quarterberth.  There aren’t 
any other wires running close to it.  Far enough from the engine and control 
panel too.  It doesn’t malfunction often, but when it does you need to be there 
to correct it.

  I would suspect the fluxgate compass may be located in a bad place on the 
boat where it is affected by something metallic.  Or maybe the wiring is 
experiencing a surge from a power source?   Besides many hours of sailing and 
motoring a narrow ICW channel, I made at least seven 12 to 13 hour trips using 
our ST 4000plus and never experienced that problem.   Six hours from Atlantic 
City to Cape May and six hours Cape May to Greenwich, NJ.
