Thought I bettet share a great experience with one of our local buisnesses. 3 years ago I upgraded my Minnkota v2 power drive to the I- pilot. From day one anything using the gps would send it into the wicked spin of death. Spent hours on the phone with Minnkota, they even sent me out a new head thinking it was defective. No luck. Posted on here and guywhoissmarterthanmewithelectronics suggested it was a voltage drop. I put a new plug in all new wiring still a no go. Mentioned it to Keith at Toybox when I picked up my boat the other day. He asked about a metal tube that blocks interference from the power cables. This was not included with mine or any of the instructions I searched on line. He found one laying around the shop and gave it to me. I slid it over the power cable in the head and holy shit spot lock works! First time in 3yrs!
If anybody is looking for any work to be done on their boats I would highly recommend Toybox. They have a new location just south of the airport.
