2. Troubleshooting

Any problem you may have with the Sailcomp 103AC can usually be quickly remedied
by first checking for the following:
1. low battery voltage
2. incorrect installation
3. poor electrical connections
4. dirty connector plugs or receptacles

Nevertheless, a troubleshooting guide follows:

Backlight out
Segments dim or missing from LCD

1. Check power supply as battery voltage may be incorrect or so low that even "

Lo

"

bAt

" cannot be displayed.

2. Check cables and connectors making sure they are properly connected. Sockets or

pins in connector plugs or junction box receptacles may be dirty. To clean: use a
soft bristled brush and a contact cleaner (Radio Shack, etc).Take care not to use any
hard object that could bend the connector pins.

3. Call the KVH Sales Office.

Random segments appear
All segments come on at once and freeze
Heading Freezes
No reading on display
Heading resets to 000°
