Some of my Raymarine instruments on my boat are not working. My anemometer has never worked per prior owner and the autopilot doesn’t work correctly. I did not find out much in the books that came with the instruments. The boat/instruments are 20 years old. Too old should just replace? Or is there instructions somewhere on how to reset? Or would a Raymarine dealer be able to fix? Any ideas?

What is the model of the instruments? That will help us know how they are networked (SeaTalk, SeaTalk NG, etc) which will help narrow down your options.

There are likely manuals online. Reset to factory defaults would be included.
I think most electronics guys would not want to mess around with 20 yo equipment.
An anemometer not working is often the sending unit at the top of the mast. But it could be an array of other problems. Does the display power up? If not, why not?
What is working incorrectly for the autopilot mean? Does it go off course? Or is there some other function that isn't working?
If you replace one component you probably should go all new and it will be expensive.
