Erratic fault on Navico Corus Ocean pilot
The "Error Rudder" message on the C600AD display could indicate an issue with the linear feedback unit (LFU) or the rudder angle sensor. The LFU measures the position of the rudder and sends that information to the autopilot control unit.
You may want to check the wiring and connections between the LFU and the autopilot control unit to ensure that there are no loose or damaged connections. If the wiring is intact, the LFU may need to be replaced or recalibrated.
You may also want to check the rudder angle sensor to ensure that it is functioning properly. If the rudder angle sensor is not providing accurate information to the LFU, it could cause the "Error Rudder" message.
It may be helpful to consult with a marine electronics technician or the manufacturer of the C600AD autopilot system for further troubleshooting and repair recommendations.

AOSmith 1hp lift motor starts then trips breaker , any ideas?, thants
There are a few possible reasons why your AOSmith 1hp lift motor starts and then trips the breaker:
- Overload: The motor may be overloaded and drawing too much current. Check the load on the motor and make sure it is within the motor's capacity.
- Short Circuit: A short circuit could be causing the motor to draw too much current and trip the breaker. Check the wiring for any signs of damage or wear.
- Faulty Motor: The motor itself could be faulty and causing the overload or short circuit. Check the motor windings for any signs of damage or wear.
- Tripped Thermal Overload: The motor may have a thermal overload switch that shuts off the motor if it gets too hot. Check the motor for any signs of overheating and reset the thermal overload switch if necessary.
- Faulty Breaker: The breaker itself could be faulty and tripping prematurely. Check the breaker for any signs of wear or damage.
It is recommended to consult a licensed electrician or motor technician to diagnose and fix the issue, as working with electricity can be dangerous if not done properly.

I want to be able to operate the tilt and trim switch located on the cowl of a 2018 350 mercury verado with the battery switch in the off position.
It is not recommended to operate any electrical device on a boat with the battery switch in the "off" position, as doing so could damage the electrical system or the device itself.
However, if you want to be able to operate the tilt and trim switch on your 2018 350 Mercury Verado with the battery switch off, you could install a separate battery or power source for the trim system. This would require some rewiring and installation work, and it may not be feasible depending on the configuration of your boat and engine.
If you are not experienced with electrical work, it is recommended to consult with a qualified marine technician or electrician for advice and assistance with this modification.
