Auto Pilot losing data

I have a RayMarine 6100 (if I remember correctly) auto pilot. Lately it has been flashing a No Data message... I thought it may have been due to low voltage so replaced all the batteries. Still get the message.

The message starts occuring after hittting the fishing grounds... out of SouthPort NC you head out to sea due (generally) south and fish a west/east pattern. I finally realized the message occurs only when navigating to the east... what do you think is causing this??? Bad flux gate compass?
