Perfect Pass won't work correctly at start of each day
Howdy. I couldn't find any older thread with these symptoms, so here goes...
At the start of each boating day, my Perfect Pass will struggle to maintain a set speed. I have to give extra throttle just to make it stop complaining (the # symbol will flash as it tries and fails until I give throttle). Speed will vary up and down quickly.
This will continue for perhaps the first 20-30 minutes of use. The symptoms gradually disappear and the system is then usable for hours afterwards.
I'm going to visit my boat at the marina briefly this afternoon. I won't be putting it in the water (it's on the trailer), but I can inspect for any specific things that you forum members might point out.
I'm guessing either:
1. Slipped fastener on a cable end, or
2. Failing cable. Being tight, but loosen-able for a while each day was a symptom that my steering cable also had before it needed replacement.
Hints? Thanks.

Did you reset the perfect pass to defaults or add remove ballast, you need to adjust the kdw settings... that or when my servo motor begins to die it starts out acting weird, too fast then to slow, or takes forever to settle in then to not engaging at all...

It is.. Happens a lot more if you leave the cover of and dew forms.. Call pp and see what they recommend, it only happens every once in a while for me..

Mine does this intermittently,I thought it was battery voltage, but that isn't consistent either as it did it with a new battery also

Keeping it covered helps mine..I noticed when my other gauges have moisture in them pp has issues..
