Did you retrofit the nav, or an upgrade from an earlier system? Did you set the correct date and time in your car?

Can you go into the navigation service menu and check the status-- is it giving you an antenna error or is it searching for satellites.

P.S. Please turn off your Caps Lock. That is yelling.

Information on how to do this has been posted two or three times in in this forum. You can find it by searching for keywords like "gyro" and "speed pulse".
