Replaced GPS Antenna - need assistance

I also did work on the GPS module in various ways.
Yellow flashing and GPS installed right means the GPS module isn't seen by the system.
Either its fried or something is wrong.
It could be that you messed some solder somewhere or applied to much or whatever.
You can mess with the GPS module quit a lot and do a lot of bad things to them.
I did manage to have them fried beyond repair, but was a nice experience.
Strong sturdy things that GPS module.

Yellow flashing means it searching for satellites and has not acquired 6. ;)

Yah why not.
If the GPS module works then its green with 3 red flashes under 6 satellites.
If there is no or faulty GPS module its yellow flashing, but hey its different on the other side of the Atlantic ocean isn't it ?

Justin, sound like a good practice for anyone doing this is to order a few extra units just to make sure you get one that works. Fortunately they are cheap enough to do that.


That's what I did, ordered 5 knowing 1 May be bad. They're cheap enough. Unless like me and am like a 4 yr old and can't wait for delivery, paid $75 to get overnight.
