Since I don't know any of the history of your unit (if it worked in the past), I will throw this out even thou it may be of common knowledge for the Nav-Aid.  Because of the era when It was developed, the Nav-Aid needs Analog input, and not the digital output that modern navs/GPS export.  When I put mine in back in 94, there was a digital to analog converter that I had to use.  The pair is still working great both with VOR and GPS inputs.

Hi all
I was if anyone with a navaid autopilot may have an idea to the following.
I have one and the wing lever part works fine. When I go to use the auto pilot 
it starts a shallow turn to the right and just goes in slow circles... I can 
tell/feel the servo working but just doesn't track.... Just locks into a slow 
consistent turn and does circles.
Ideas??

Thanks
Kevin
