C4 GPS Reception Issue

My 2016 Citroen C4 diesel, with 144700 km, has a GPS problem. The navigation system reports no GPS reception and an error is stored. Could a defective GPS antenna be the cause?

I had a similar issue with my C4. No GPS signal, just a blank screen where the map should be. Like using a paper map in the dark! Have you checked for signal interference, like a phone mount blocking the antenna? Might be that simple.

Thanks. I've checked for obstructions, but nothing's interfering. Do you recall if the error memory also indicated a faulty GPS antenna, or was it a different error code?

Mine didn't specifically say 'faulty GPS antenna,' but the symptoms were identical - no signal, error code related to the GPS module. The workshop confirmed it was the antenna. Cost me about 200€ to sort it. Get it checked properly, might save you headaches.

I appreciate the information. I'll schedule a workshop appointment to have the GPS antenna inspected. Your experience gives me a clearer understanding of the likely cause. Thanks again.
