I got a refurbed unit. Almost everything work fine, except the GPS has some issues.

 

When I first got it would still show me moving when I came to a stop. So I reset the 3D calibration. Now it only sits there with Sensor Initializing, speed pulse it counting up, distance is staying at zero. I've driven it 30 miles with everything the same.

 

Also the GPS position is not correct on the map, it constantly shows me off to the side of the road. Signal is full and has 9 satelites. Because of this I think the voice navigation isn't working, because when I start driving it has distance from my start point.

 

I've tried resetting the unit by holding mode at boot up. Didn't fix the problems.

 

Anyone have any advice?

 

Thanks

Too many problems. Send it back. It doesn't sound like an installation problem. And the sensors should of initialized within a few miles of driving.

And get a new unit. You always pay the price for going cheap by purchasing a refurb.
