so i did a reset, and it seems to be working, my atenna signal is hitting almost all of the bars but there orange and somtimes yellow, my only thing now is that sometimes i go to check the status connection and it says excessive vibrations.....but than goes back to getting almost full bars, how can i fix this? what could it be? loose antenna wire? something wrong with the antenna or the unit itself? help plz! ive had this unit in my car for almost 1 year and never had a problem....only started acting up on gps a few days ago.

Excessive vibrations means your unit has become loose and needs to be retighten.Check your install.
