GPS is showing me sideways

I all.

 

I recently took a week off and gave my car to the repair shop for some rust removing. When I got it back a week later, the arrow showing my position started to show me sideways on the gps. This is really a pain since avic has a hard time helping me with naviguation since he doesn't really know where I am going.

 

Anyone had this problem ? Should I continue trying with Pioneer or tell the repair shop they broke my gps ?

 

Avic-Z2 + ND-BT1

VSS is wired

In a Mazda 3 2004

 

I tried multple soft resets but didn't helped.

 

Thank you for your help !

Does it always point North? There may be a setting to either have it always face north, or auto-rotate the map. Maybe it's set to always point North.

for the map yes but not for the arrow. I got it to worka few minutes ago. I had to reset the 3D sensor. kindda weird but hopefully everything is back to normal.

Same thing happened to mine. Sounds like you may not have the VSS wire hooked up properly. A simple reset like you did, should fix the problem temporally. A permanent fix would be to have that wire connected properly

3d calibration rest will fix you up my son :D

 

Had the same problem, had to reset it twice before it finally went the correct direction.

 

i also do not have the VSS wire hooked up.
