Simrad WP5000 wheelpilot problem

07/07/2008 20:46

I've got a Simrad WP4000, upgraded to WP5000 wheelpilot: can't change to anything else due to lack of room round the wheel to install. It's fine except (1) very noisy and (2) continually hunts. (1) I can't do anything about. Has anyone any ideas about (2)? Typically when sailing in moderate seas, it will rotate port then starboard for about 2 seconds, back & forth, back & forth; then a pause for a few seconds, then again hunting back & forth. I've tried every setting I can & returned it to Simrad who say it is working perfectly.
Anyone had the same problem?
