Hi Tom,

I finally got the replacement sensor installed, but I am at the same place as you were on 26.April 2019. The display in the cockpit lights up, but stays at Zero. You described having the same difficulty, then later (23.May) you wrote that it works and was a bad sensor near the windlass. Between April 26 and May 23, what did you find was the problem. The LED lights as the winch rotates… :-) Now I re-check specifications…. I installed IFM5096 Normally Closed, PNP … IFM5072 is Normally Closed, NPN… IFM5076 is Normally Open, NPN PNP sensors are sometimes called “sourcing sensors” because they source positive power to the output. NPN sensors are sometime called “sinking sensors” because they sink ground to the output. I found I can order the IFM5072, depending on your answer, this is my next step… Thanks, Keith Bikini SM 282
