GPS fix stopped working

Cold Start (TTFF) can be over 12 min long. It's OK after GPS sensor update. And yes, you can return your VA3 after 1 Week ;)

Gonna try to wait longer. If not I will return or exchange it.
Can I try it during a car ride, too?

Would not recommend. In the car most likely have you metallized thermo windows. I would just put it on the windowsill. I hope it is not too windy today.

Okay I've tried it, no sucess.

In SW Info GPS is schon with Version 0.00? Something seems to be wrong.
On top, I've found the attached eventlogs with CHKDSK Errors in the GPSSETTINGS.TXT

Short Update, VA3 is defect. Received today my new one.

Hopefully not a common fault... :mad:
