Try googling. I recall reading a decent explanation of the series of missteps several month ago. The Navy released details.
As I recall, primary steering was suddenly mucked up and was transferred to a different station that could have corrected the situation, but the transfer order wasn’t understood properly and mistakes multiplied from there. (all of the above is in non-Navy talk, including “mucked up,” by the way.)
