Seems my Horizon WS100 Wind/Speed instrument has given up.

Occasionally, it would freeze up after a long operating period. A power down would clear the freeze.
Now, the wind direction is giving false readings, by almost 180 degrees and the wind speed is zero. Manual provides a reset procedure which did not work. Also says check the green wire which seems to be OK. I can see the instruments moving at the masthead.

I already replaced the SH depth instrument with a Raymarine drop in replacement. Can I drop in a replacement Ray ST wind instrument? Not keen on running new wire up the mast. I do want to keep the form of the SH which the Ray ST series does.

Thanks

Why don't you buy the new display, hook it up to the old transducer and see what happens.... if it works you're good, if not....... return it and make a new plan.
