Thanks, Tim and Neil for your help addressing my wheel pilot problem. Neil's manual was the correct one for the 4000+. My actuator didn't have the ball bearings that Tim described. Once I got the actuator off the wheel and opened it, I found a bad belt.. A new belt from eBay for $22 fixed the pro

I have a peculiar problem, My ST4000+ display no longer displays my rudder indicator, altho it still seems to be wired in ok. Also, my heading was locked in at 243 degrees. This makes my little boat on the chart plotter point to 243 degrees, and I cannot use the autopilot. When I try that, it
