What fuse size do you put in the control module of the autopilot. I smaller fuses blew during the set up and currently have a 10 amp in there. A couple of times when running the autopilot and turning in the wind even blew the 10amp. Just wanted to know if I'm using the right size.
 
The pilot should be fused/breaker'd for 30 amp. This was the same for the NavPilot 500 series. This is due to the initial surge current during turn on of the unit and pump.
 
I figured it would be much higher but kept it safe with 10 until i could get the information from you guys. Thanks for the information!
