BT GPS reciever
 
I have a BT GPS reciever that I use for tom tom mobile, the other day I truned it on to do a journy and it would not find any satellites.

I though the battery must be low so I charged it up at home and tested it again, same thing. My phone can see the reciever but the reciever can not see any satellites.

Any ideas? Maybe a new GPS reciever!

When I first got my BT receiver, I thought I had the same problem. In my case it was only because I was trying to do the job indoors. I assume you are outside.

I was in my car at the time, I will try it again, these things should be reliable.

I had this happen with my BT Fortuna. I found that REMOVING THE BATTERY, leaving it out for 5 mins, then putting it back in did the trick. I think it forces the reciever to do a fresh fix, as if the reciever was new out of the box. Give it a try.
