04gotgoat? Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Everything worked fine the night before. Got in the car today an GPS is aying it cant find a signal do to hardware? This mean my antenna is dead? Also its not reading any info from my speed sensor or (VSS). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tillithz Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 I assume its not reading anything while driving, which would be a problem. check connections, check the line for the ant. maybe even a reset Quote Link to post Share on other sites
04gotgoat? Posted January 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Have checked the connections to the deck and have completed a level 1 reset as well .... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tillithz Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 maybe a step up in the reset? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmy303 Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Was that the message it gave you? Cannot find signal due to hardware? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
04gotgoat? Posted January 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Was that the message it gave you? Cannot find signal due to hardware? Â Exactly! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmy303 Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 I do not believe that your problem is with the antenna, homey. If the antenna is not connected, I believe the message will state that the antenna is not connected. Your unit may be defective. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
04gotgoat? Posted January 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Spoke wit pioneer today. They doubt its the antenna. I am just not "seeing" a gps signal. Â When I got to connection status is see the following: Â Speed Signal = Nok GPS Ant = Nok Install Position = Nok Power Volt = Nok Back Signal = nok (I have not connected the reverse light) Â I am wondering if maybe the gyro is screwed. Â I have completed a level 3 and attempted a level 4 whick erased the drive of my files...Although I cannot reset the 3D calibration as it is greyed out... Â Any suggestions?

tillithz Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 check the ant. position and then call pioneer for service Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmy303 Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Mmmhmmm, that'll be going out for service. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tillithz Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 it it still covered under warranty? how long you had it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
04gotgoat? Posted January 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 they have a 70 evaulation fee...Anyone know what a typical repair may be? I may not get the warranty repair as I dont have the receipt to prove where I bought it from. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tillithz Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 dont know the avg. fee but maybe they do, ask em. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmy303 Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 If you can't find your reciept, you may be able to convince the repair dept. to use the manufacture date, if that is within a year. Just be nice. The serviceperson is your friend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
04gotgoat? Posted January 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 Ok pulled the radio out yesterday...Seems the secret wire that is from connector 2 to ground has broke the pin connector of the wire and this wire was laying on the top of the back of the deck. The othre end was connected to the ground so I am wondering if this created a ground loop and screwed up my gyro... From the symptoms I am getting I am thinking the gyro or something may have opened a circuit on the board possibly??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
