I am reassembling a tillerpilot with a wired remote. I notice that the
manufacturer originally used what looks like a black rubbery compound for
waterproofing. I suspect was a silicone rubber product. What is the
recommended sealer for plastic assemblies such as remotes, autopilots, etc.?

I avoid silicone sealants since nothing else sticks to them, or to
where they were.

I'd use LifeCaulk or some other non-silicone sealant.
