Hello all
I am a relative newby with a boat that has 2 Furuno FI50 displays, and a Furuno wind device top of mast. Last season (when I bought the boat) the wind direction and speed were displayed fine on both panels. This season, the wind direction is fine, but the wind speed is no longer working.
My question is: how do I diagnose whether the issue is top of mast - i.e. the wind paddles? Is there a testing device that I could use at the connection at the base of the mast in order to see if there is signal?
My problem is that when the mast is removed in the off season, I don't have a way of testing the connections. Or certainly not an easy way.
Is there a Furuno testing device that the connector can be connected to?
Any and all suggestions welcome!
Thank you..
Philip
