Hello!
Our new-in-2014 e95 MFD developed a bizarre issue on the way North from Florida a couple days ago. After being heavily soaked with blowing rain and possible salt water splashing (34 knots apparent and 6' seas from aft), the top 3/4" of the touch screen no longer responds to touch commands (thank goodness for the separate buttons!). The display itself is fine, and oddly enough, the screen calibration routine says its working just fine up there!
I'm gonna guess that water has gotten in, so the real question is whether it's worth having it repaired or if we should be looking at replacing it.
Thoughts?
