Re: Rudder position gauge
Center the rudder then center the sender.

I had one like that and replaced it only to have it also go bad. Not exactly the best thing out there IMHO.
I replaced mine last year simply for aesthetic purposes with this unit. They are rather cheap as can be seen here. They come in black or white and are suitable for 12 or 24v systems. http://www.ebay.com/itm/KUS-Boat-Rudder ... cc&vxp=mtr
