coincidence? i think not.

I wouldn't mind to buy one of these for a trip around the world. You sure are ripping it up in the bay , looks vary comfortable.

No what's even more incredible is the fact that the boat owners don't require a standpipe system on the docks. as a firefighter it's not my job to require people people provide protection systems for their stuff. regarding the fireboat give it time to get there

No, what is incredible is the lack of a properly equipped fire dept that had a fire boat and/or standpipes along each dock so the fire fighters could hook up their hoselines in order to make an approach.

I just recently purchased 1997 Amel Super Maramu hull #195!!!

Hello I´m from Argentina It s imposible get this connector here. Can you help me? can you send me one ? I send the money where you indicate Thanks

Hello Terry, with your help I came up with the dimensions and ordered some Zebra connectors back in 2011. I also found where one of our Pals is charging $80.00 for the longest connector... What a RIP OFF. I personally posted all the FujiPoly America info back in 2011 (on a couple Sailing Sites) after spending hours on the phone to locate a suitable connector (and mailed a bunch out for Free). This is a $.45 connector, the problem is being able to buy them. FujiPoly Series 2004, White Barrier H .299"x W .118" x L. 2.283" (This is the 58mm part.) I still have a few that I'm willing to help other Sailors with. If you need one or two email me. (Yes what WIlliam Moe said!)

hello,i wanted to thank u for your discovery, my wind 3100 is showing exactly these symptoms,i live close [gabriola isl] but the attempt to find a`digital display meter,was fruitless,, so i phoned the guy on the east coast,usa,who took your idea,admits it,ha ha,and prepared a kit,the 30 us plus 8 shipping worked for me,since electronically im not too educated, ya,20 bucks more,but no aimless search,,although i havent received the kit, im sure of your prognosis,,[just hard to find that damn elostemer] anyway thx again for your saving my instrument,,may your winds always be good,, bill [sv victory]

Case ih is the best JD sucks!!!

nice shiny new combine, must have cost a pretty penny!!!

I meant to say Maramu hull #29. We don't have an SM.

I think we may have seen you last summer anchored off Paradise near China Camp. We own hull #29 which is currently in the bay. I'll try to send you a personal message.

This work perfect! Thanks so much for the upload

Hi Terry, Great video. But I have a different issue with my 3100. The masthead connector (which is an aluminum tube with cups and vane) is ripped of the wiring and I do not now how to fix it. The small connector is a 5-pin, number 1-5. The wires are colored red/black/yellow/white/blue. They should be corresponding with the mast wiring, which has a different color coding: green/white/brown/red and a blanc (stripped) wire. How matches the color of the masthead to the mast colors? Hope you know!?

Thanks to you I fixed my Navman. A Q-tip and electronic contact cleaner cleaned the residue from the old strip left on the circuit board. Some of the contact material on the glass came off with the old tape, but I trimmed the new conductive strip and plastic display backing to make a contact.

Ola Migpetko, voce sabe se o 3100 wind tambem pode ser reparado desta forma?

Hi Terry, what a great video. My problem instrument is the wind 3150, will the same repair work on this instrument. My thanks in advance. Ray B.

@matevzb "Navbus protocol" = NMEA :) nothing special

thanks a bunch from posting this video. I was able to find a backlight display from winstar (p/n WH1601A-YYH-JTK) 16 caracters and 1 line with back light. cost R$20,00 - US$ 11,10 each. as mentioned by others bellow its necessary to put a 1 to 3 mm foam among display and front cover, specially to repair a Multi 3100 unit due to ribbon lenght (in the middle sometimes lack of pressure). mi multi 3100 and wind 3100 are functional again. Porto alegre - Brazil

Yes that works. But how to do this repairon an Navman 3150 Wind instrument. There are the contacts on the PCB and from the LCD not on the same place. Does anyone have suggestions for that situation? h.groeneveld2@chello.nl

Nice video. Thats cool to see up close and in action

This is great!!!! Can anyone provide a European webaddress and model number for the replacement "LCD Panel Meter"? I have great trouble finding it over here. Thx for a great video

I am happy you ere able to extend the life of your equipment....I may indeed go back and add the 3mm foam to the face of the LCD as outlined by p26byc as one of my displays is still temperamental....

Hey Darren, i have one "donor panel" here on the boat. Printed on the side of the box is " PM-1028A. LCD Panel Meter 9V INDEP" CIRCUIT-TEST ELECTRONICS I bought this locally in Victoria, I am quite sure you should be able to find one in a local Electronic DIY store such a Fry's. There is one in Renton... These are not special panels and you don't necessarily need to purchase the same one that I did. They all contain the elastomer connectors that will be used for the repair.

I know how daunting the other option is...not just the money for new instruments but the time to remove and replace all this networked stuff....I will at sometime do just that...hopefully in a few years from now.
