Flukey autohelm 7000

The last 2 times I went out, my Autohelm 7000 would just alarm when I turned it on. Flipped it on and off several times with no change. I left it off, and after about 20 minutes, turned it back on, and it worked perfectly. No different with the engine on or off. Once it goes on, I can turn it off, and then back on with no problem.
I hate to bring in the elctronics guy, as he will say "seems to be running fine now...that will be $200."
Any thoughts??
