Nav system shows wrong location

andrewj7 · 03-09-2014, 10:56 AM

Over the last couple of weeks I've noticed my Nav system (which i don't use much for directions, it's just on) is miles off. Sometimes after not using the car for a few days it corrects itself. There does seem to be active tracking while i'm driving just to the wrong location.

Anyone know if there could be an issue that can be reset, service menus, etc?

The only thing I've done to the car recently is have the radio out to install the aux line. So i'm wondering if a cable for the GPS might be loose. However I thought all of that was connected in the trunk and nothing to do with the head unit.

Any help much appreciated.

Search "satellite" or "GPS" in the navigation sub forum for more.
