Bavaria 30 - lewmar anchor windlass
« on: July 01 2023, 20:45 »
Hi
Can anyone help, please?  I need to replace my Lewmar windlass control fob but will need to pair it to the windlass receiver.  Does anyone know where the receiver is located on the boat?  The manual says it must be as far as possible from large metal masses, electrical motors or the windlass and at least 1m (3ft) away from electrical wiring, navigational and radio equipment. 
Any clues gratefully received!

A wireless control would not have been a factory fit so you will have to follow the wires from the control box/solenoid to the wireless receiver. It is likely to be close by.. I have had 3 wireless installations done and in each case the receiver was located in the locker where the control box was.
