Does it keep pointing east when you drive, I find mine can be a bit errant on its initial direction assesment until you start moving, it then sorts itself out when it sees whch way the car is heading. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

As above. After half a mile or so, it should get an accurate position/direction.

Its probably a faulty GPS Arial/Receiver they are prone to water damage. I have had a few need replacing in Jags mostly but a few RR. Easy job. |

What gaz said if it has no idea where it is, but if it has got the correct location and it's just pointing in the wrong direction....... There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

not a problem to work on roof aerial with the lining in. just remove the clips for the dog guard and there is a plastic clamp a few inches into the roof from the rear in the centre. |
