Turning all lights OFF when leaving boat without shore power

[ixlr8]

If it is the same autopilot that is on the 23, there is an auto on setting in the setting menu. I may not have the Garmin terminology but it was obvious from the name.

Dig around and make that change and you should be able to make that stop.

Hmm, I turn off the battery switch whenever I leave my boat, a 27OB. Everytime I turn it on, I find the autopilot display on. I will have to search thru the menu's to see if I can stop it from happening. Thank you for the heads up there is a setting that can change this.

Jim:

So this must be a default setting or a setting left by the factory after doing their QA activities to make sure things are working.

I will check to see if this happens on my R27/OB as I've not noticed it.

[EDIT]
I checked this aspect on my boat today and found the auto pilot screen did not light up.
