Cellmarley Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 I have a Z2 which i recently updated to a Z3. When i am using my navigation sometime I will be on the guided route, but the icon tht represents my vehicle will be on the previous street, which i just turned off. I thought this lag was due to the HDD so i upgraded to a z3 and it still does it. I ordered a new GpS antenna, but it was not pioneer. So instead of having the huge after market antenna head on my dash, I had my friend slice the wire and use my original pioneer antenna head. Could this be problem?

What does your GPS screen tell you ? Are you receiving sufficient satelites with good signal strength ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cellmarley Posted January 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Its funny you asked me that.. Sometimes it full strength but last night when i checked the strength it was very low. i called pioneer he had me reset through the menu option but i still have the same issue Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainInsaneO Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Splicing the antenna wire is never a good thing. Did you check the old antenna? The wire might be cut slightly somewhere. That could be what was affecting it, and now you are getting a bad signal because of the splice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
