Satellite mark in the GPS icon is not indicated

NOTE: Make sure the vehicle is parked outside and away from buildings.

1. Check for electronic aftermarket accessories (possibly hidden) mounted near the GPS antenna or the navigation unit.

Are there any electronic accessories?

YES - Disable the accessories and recheck.

NO - Go to step 2.

2. Perform the "System Links" check under System Diagnosis Test.

Is "NG" indicated for ANT or GPS?

YES - Check for a kinked, crushed, or disconnected GPS antenna wire. If necessary, try a known-good GPS antenna. If "NG" is still indicated, replace the navigation unit.

NO - Check that nothing is blocking the GPS antenna located under the dashboard and recheck. Substitute a known-good navigation unit, and recheck.
