Problems with the GPS Receiver
Engine noise
An unshielded ignition system can cause
enough noise to block reception of a
differential signal.

• Use bypass capacitors, commonly available
in automotive stores for cleaning up
interference to CB and other radios. If the
problem persists, shield engine components

• Determine the optimal antenna location by
watching the SNR value on the Home

Note – Before replacing engine parts in an
attempt to solve this problem, make sure that
the problem is not caused by a computer or
power source near the receiver. Some
computers and their power sources cause
noise that disrupts GPS and satellite DGPS
signals.

Problem
Possible solution
Mounting location
The receiver is not picking up a clear signal.
Mount the receiver on the centerline of the
vehicle, away from any sources of interference
and with a clear view of the sky (see Choosing
a location, page 21).
