2012 sea ray 310, twin 5.0.
Was going thru the settings on the smart craft dts cluster and noticed I have a steering angle indicator, currently showing 58 degrees to port. But when I rotate steering wheel left/right, it continues to read 58 degrees to port. I looked around the steering linkage for a sensor, but can’t find anything.....
I think if the sensor wasn’t their, it would show 0 ?

Thanks

My steering sensor was on the auto pilot motor at the rear of the boat and was adjusted to the zero position by an adjustment screw when the rudders were centered. This was part of the installation set up.

Copy, thank you, been looking all day still can't find it...
 
Mine looked like a miniature rudder post mounted on a crossmember near the actual rudder post, and a thin adjustable rod that attached to the tiller on the one side.
