My engine is year 2002. I suppose I'll need to clean the Starter like you did, so i ordered a new Starter just to standby in case I ruin the servicing 😊 Thanks for the video❤
also if i put the circlip on the back of the shaft it jams the shaft from turning but yours went on real easily? mine got a small spring at back instead of a washer
Hi Gunnar, you seem to be a very familiar with a Raymarine tiller pilots. Perhaps you could help me about my ST2000+ tiller pilot... My brand new tiller pilot does not hold the course in AUTO mode. When I set the desired course in STANDBY mode and press the AUTO button the push rod (little by little) goes completely out, or completely inside, and the boat start circling endlessly. However, if I remove the tiller pilot from the pin, and steer the boat manually (left - right), holding at the same time tiller pilot very near the pin it reacts normally, as it supposed to do in AUTO mode, the push rod goes IN and OUT normally accordingly to my (left - right) steering... but when I put it back on the pin it no longer holds the course again. Thank you very much.
@gunnarkjemphol Well, yes, I did calibration. It's a very simple procedure, as everything else ... that's why I am so confused. I plugged tiller pilot to power, it shows "C" with the current course, I set the desired course and press "Auto" button to start automatic steering, but it just won't keep the boat in settled course.
as for the calibration process... I start turning the boat in circles, speed lower than 2 knots, about 4-5 minutes per circle. As soon as I made 1 whole circle, it shows the deviation amount, I believe it was 5, then I trurn the boat in a steady course and aligned the tiller pilot course that was shown on LCD display, and finally pressed "Standby" button for 1 second to save calibration... I believe it was done correctly.
Way out of my comfort zone. Especially with the edits, but thank you! I’ll know what to do if i had to.
Nice video with no annoying music. Thanks!

great access. its not always like that on boats
I would recommend dropping the RPMs to around 800 when starting as to allow the oil pressure to build.

please tell me why you left the air filter in the way lol?

have you calibrated the Tiller pilot? Se in the manual, and start calibration when you make 360 degree circles with the boat in 3 minutes.

Nice job! Did that fix your starting issues?
Yes. It working each time now. I sanded the brushes flat, that cold help, since one was lopsided.
How old was the engine or running hours before servicing the starter?
I do not know running hours, and year. But based on serial number I guess the motor is from year 2000
