Im getting a GPS communication error. Ive seen som posts here they all seem to have the map updating anyway mine does not. The connections look fine.

i jiggled them a bit but can barley just get one arm in there so I can’t disconnect. Pictures below. Any workarounds or other things to try?

i tried killing the batteries and restarting. Discovered while warming engings. Good voltake all around.
 
Are you inside a garage? I see a reflection in the screen that implies garage doors.

GPS needs clear line of sight to the sky to work.
 
nope I was outside. Just realized I never resolved this as Im about to put the boat in. Oh well gonna have to live with the beep for today :(
 
This error has returned. Is there any way to access the GPS from above? It’s just anointing now. I can’t get to it from below. I would like to diss inject/clean/reconnect all terminals.

Only way to access it is from below, in front of the helm compartment. The connector is zip tied to the harness
