Re: Stus-List Chart plotter problem

Hi Dave, I still think you have a noise/grounding problem. If noise gets into one of the inputs, say the NMEA, there is usually a buffer to handle excessive inputs. If that buffer gets overloaded, the chart plotter might act goofy until the buffer gets emptied. I would make sure you have a

Sounds like the voltage regulator is defective. A VOLTAGE REGULATOR regulates the charging voltage that the alternator produces, keeping it between 13.5 and 14.5 volts to protect the electrical. Your alternator voltage is too high overcharging battery. When you turn off engine it is taking a
