Garmin iQue M5, Not aquiring satellites
Two possibilities - Antenna (in power cable) or electronics related to antenna. First, do a hard reset. Place the pen top into the RESET hole for 3 seconds...
Next, when the unit is powered, page over to the screen showing satellite signal strength....
If NONE appear within 1 minute (and you are outside and NOT under trees), you have an antenna or antenna interface issue.
Garmin WILL repair the unit for 3 to 4 times its value... A 265WT GPS is cheaper, faster and more accurate. The IQUE is no longer worth repairing....
