This past weekend after scrubbing my bilge from top to bottom I suddenly had an inoperative Raymarine ST8001 autopilot. The unit powers on and gives me a heading in standby mode but wont hold that heading when engaged to do so. I know virtually nothing about AP's but read about "rudder reference transducers" and "fluxgate compasses." Could I have inadvertently disconnected something when cleaning the bilge that would mess up my autopilot?
