Sat Nav not working
Hi all
Having issues with the sat nav in my discovery 4 (2014 face lift model)
The GPS symbol has a red strike through it, I'm getting
no satellite signal so I'm unable to use the navigation system, the TMC still works though. Ive just fitted a new antenna and still nothing! any ideas.
Kind regards Gord

does anyone really use the inbuilt SatNav??
I have the same age D4 and have never used it, its diabolical compared to anything!
Get a Brodit and use Google maps

Start by checking/remaking the Fakra connections between the head unit and the screen. Bit of a faff pulling the centre console apart but I had the same problem a few years back and it worked for me. Spent ages belling out cables before going for the obvious...
