Thanks for the quick reply. I haven't checked the antenna connection myself. Where exactly is the GPS antenna located in the Kamiq? Is it easily accessible, or do I need special tools to check it?

In my case, checking the connection didn't solve the issue. The GPS antenna itself was faulty. I'm not sure about the exact location on your 2022 model, but it's usually integrated within the shark fin antenna on the roof or behind the dashboard. Honestly, I'd suggest taking it to a workshop. They can diagnose it properly and replace the GPS antenna if needed.

Took the Kamiq to the workshop. They confirmed the defective GPS antenna and replaced it. Cost was indeed around 200€. Thanks for your input!

I had a similar problem with my Kamiq. The car electronics threw an error, and the navigation system completely lost GPS reception. The error memory also showed a GPS antenna issue. Did you check the antenna connection? Maybe it's just loose.
