My first tillerpilot was a Navico 1600. I still have it in its original box
and the manual may be on board my sailboat. I have used it for several years and spent countless dollars on repair. I have learned how to repair that thing with both of my eyes closed during the worse storm. The last time it came out of repair they forgot to place the protective shield to prevent electro magnetic interference. So every time I used my VHF the tillerpilot went wild. The main problem with this tillerpilot is that it is not waterproof and has no breathing hole. My present tillerpilot is still a Navico but with a breathing hole and proper EMI shielding. I still have the manual for the 1600 and next time I go on my boat I will look up in my manuals. My recommendation is do yourself a favor DO NOT USE THAT THING for serious navigation. As to repair it, open the case and let the inside component dry up. Then try it. Changes are that it will work until it gets humid inside and stop again. If some of the components need replacing unless you can have them at low cost do not spent money on it. wrote in message oups.com... Hi. I have a Navico TillerPilot 1600, but I don't have the manual.
