Trackball cleaning

Question

​I have a Furuno 1833C/NT package and my trackball has started sticking.   Is there anything I can do to repair/clean it?

Solution

​To clean the NavNet (RDP139) or NavNet VX2 (RDP149) 10.4 inch display unit trackballs please proceed as follows: 
 
1.  Use the 2 opposite raised ridges on the Trackball Retainer ring to turn the ring 1/4 turn counter clockwise.  Remove the retainer ring and the trackball. 
 
2. Clean the trackball and the retainer ring in warm soapy water. 
 
3.  Use a cotton swap and isopropyl alcohol to clean the rollers and the trackball receptacle. 
 
4.  After allowing both to dry, reinstall the trackball and the retainer ring.
