I connected my Garmin gpsmap76 to a Raymarine autopilot using the NEMA output from the GPS. The autopilot was also on the seatalk bus. It work fine. The GPS provided navigational guidance to the autopilot
The rudder sensor works like a light dimmer, so you get 5V and ground on the outside two connections and a varying voltage between about 1 and 4 volts depending on rudder position

I have exactly the same problem, It is very unpleasant, all the time we have to be close from the helm. if you founded the solution, I am very interrested. I will try some test. If I find something, I will post it.
The power cable of your 2106 acts as a data cable also. You should find additional unused wires on the cable. Locate the brown and blue wires. You will need to connect the brown wire to the "NMEA OUT +" terminal on the autopilot course computer and connect the blue wire to the "NMEA IN +" terminal on the course computer. Finally, connect the "NMEA OUT -" and the "NMEA IN -" to ground (preferably the same place that the Garmin is grounded (black wire). Be sure that the Garmin interface is set up for NMEA In / NMEA Out. That should get you going!
