Default GPS can't find location

Nav can't find location. Is there a reboot or something I can try before going back to dealer? I have updated the software in the radio, which is a boom 6.5 in a 16 RGS. THANKS

Not all locations are in the maps. But almost all services use the same maps. Try map quest or google maps and see if it comes up on your phone also check the spelling. And welcome to the forums.

Maybe it doesn't want you to go there ... ever thought of that?

After 2 different head units and 3 different antennas, I gave up and traded my ‘14 for a ‘19 with the new GTS. So far it knows where I am. My ‘14 rarely did.

That was an expensive GPS upgrade. I'll try that on my wife, "Honey, Im off to the dealership, I need a new GPS, this one is giving me problems" lol

LOL, yeah, it got to the point that I was getting pissed every time I rode it and my wife got tired of hearing me bitch about it. Loving the '19 though!
