Hello everyone,
I have a HANSE 385 2014 with Zeus Touch 8 plotter by B&G. When I acitivate the autopilot after a few seconds I receive the message "Rudder Control Failure" Any idea of how can I solve this? Is this a problem of reseting the autopilot setting or the autopilot itself problem? Thank you very much for your reply. Best regards, Nikos

Nikos:
I had the same message when the fuse blew last year. Check the fuse next to the black box under the port lazarette. This is the autopilot computer and there is a fuse there within a rubber housing. When I put a new fuse in everything started working well once again. If that does not work - and I hope it does - then I am not sure what the next step would be. |

Hi Nikos
We had the same problem, but it was the rudder sensor that had failed. We replaced that and everything was ok again, but I would do what Andy suggests first as a fuse is cheaper, the sensor was US$300 approx. Paul
