Seat Ateca GPS Issue

My 2023 Seat Ateca with a diesel engine has a GPS problem. Mileage is 171479 km. There's an error stored in the error memory and no GPS reception for the navigation system. Suspect a defective GPS antenna. Repair cost estimated around 200€.

I had a similar problem with my Seat Ateca. The car GPS just stopped working. Have you checked the antenna connection? It might be loose or corroded. Signal interference can also be a factor, but given the error code, I suspect a faulty antenna.

Where is the antenna located? Is it difficult to access?

On my Ateca, the GPS antenna is integrated into the shark fin antenna on the roof. Accessing it requires removing the interior headlining, which can be tricky. Given the cost estimate, it's probably best left to a workshop. They can properly diagnose and replace the antenna.

Thanks for the insight. The workshop confirmed a defective GPS antenna. Repair cost was as predicted, around 200€. Navigation is now working correctly.
