Winter storage of autopilot display

Recommended Posts

I always remove my GPS and depth finder and store them in a heated area during winter. Should I also remove my Simrad Display and store it inside? I store my boat in a unheated garage which never goes below 0 degrees where I live. The autopilot display is harder to remove since it is cut into the dash and I snapped those little screw covers on it.

HB - for what its worth I take mine off and store it at home. After my GPS came out of storge toasted two years ago I pull all of my electronics off. I would think that the screens are LCD's and can react the same to temperature issues. It takes time to pull it all but it took me hours with Lowrance to get them to replace it and weeks before I got a new one. So I take an hour and pull all of my stuff. But I alos know folks who never take thier stuff off and have not had any issues for years - maybe just be my bad luck - so I take it off the boat and dont elave it to luck.
