Tr1 gold help

[phil2]

Got out today shutdown in 120 started kicker and the autopilot. Set my direction and it started its course then after 50 yds it went into a zig zag pattern. Couldn't get it to stop pulled fuse 2 x then was fine for about a hr or two then started again same crap. Then I put in standby then auto was fine for a hr then it started again this time I was so pissed I picked up and called it a day. Any ideas ??

How are your batteries?

The only time my TR1 has acted screwy was when I had low voltage.

Running on agm 31 series with 12.9 volts. I would shut it off  it will track straight then soon as I hit throttle up it would activate it again. So I think its on zig zag just need to figure out how to stop. Might put the factory reset code in just hope it don't loose north settings.

How about the probe batteries, I understand that the land speed wheel doesn’t come under the probe batteries just a thought.

you gotta get on phone and ON THE WATER
 with a tech person from garmin. I would reccomend a 9:00am phone call or what ever time they open in time zone there in. Sounds like you need to be reprogrammed and recalibrated. Need a location with smooth water.

To adjust gain, Press  Setup, mob, down arrow 3 times and then go back to auto.   This will slow the speed that the unit adjust the motor. I think they call that sea state adjustment . As mentioned, have the tech number ready if this does not work.

Did you place something magnetic near the flux gate compass?  That will make it go haywire.

Ya called Garmin I wasn't hitting the on off button to program it.
