I have an early 1990's autopilot, with the all too common NO LINK error code.
It consists of the following;
ST7000 display
Z083 computer
Z131 rudder reference
Z130 fluxgate
Z028 rotary drive
Have done all the diagnostics and functional test on each individual component and it's the Z083 computer that is not working.
What are my options to upgrade the Z083 to a more modern autopilot computer and use the other peripherals I already have on the vessel.
Not that interested in having an interphased system with my plotter or any bells or whistles, just looking for a simple rugged autopilot
