The navigation system in a 2017 Seat Leon was not receiving a GPS signal, with an error stored in the memory. The likely cause was identified as a defective GPS antenna.

Thank you for your response. Where exactly is the GPS module located? I have checked some of the connections I could easily access, but I haven't located the GPS module. Also, how did you troubleshoot the issue on your Seat Leon?

On the Leon, the GPS module was located under the dashboard, which required some disassembly to access. The issue was indeed the GPS antenna, and after replacing it, the GPS signal was restored. Given the symptoms and the error code, it is very likely the antenna. If you are not comfortable with further diagnosis, I recommend taking it to a workshop for confirmation. They should be able to pinpoint the issue and provide an accurate cost estimate.

Thank you for the insights. I took the vehicle to the workshop, and as suspected, the GPS antenna was indeed defective. The antenna repair cost came to around 200€, as initially estimated. The car GPS is now working flawlessly, so I appreciate your help in confirming the likely cause.

I had a similar car GPS issue with my Seat Leon a while back. The symptoms you described, the error code and the lack of GPS signal, sound very familiar. Have you checked the connection to the GPS module itself? Sometimes, a loose connection can cause these problems. Also, is the GPS module easily accessible in your Seat Leon?
