RE: [CA11] Rudder indicator reading incorrectly
I have an update... and a kind of confession to make!
After speaking with the FLIR technician here I was advised to remove the sensor and bring it to him for replacement. When I got the unit home I re-ran the diagnostic tests and was surprised to see that the was now working! Further investigation showed that a cable join I'd made had a dry joint - the downside of doing delicate soldering onboard without my spectacles I guess. So the cable and the connection must have moved after the autopilot was fitted and tested, resulting in the failure.
I've now resoldered the connections, at home, in my workshop and with my glasses on!
The sensor is now working correctly.
Sorry for any waste of your time Chuck.
