No GPS lock

[Matman]

I have purchased another SOLO and am having problems with GPS it seems.
I have factory reset the bird and controller, all went as should, paired to TX and connected on Solex app. All good.
Power on in order, TX, Bird, Solex... powers on but when it’s time to collect sats. SOLO starts a constant alarm, I can only stop it by putting it in Manual fly and spinning the motors. Then it stops. No satellites are found.
I tried putting in another identical RevA gps to no avail.
Same result. So any input at this time would be great and thank you in advance.

I assume you used the same cable assembly for the two modules you tried. So it could be either the gps cable and/or the connector on the main board. At least that is where I'd look...

Yes, I did, I will try with another cable.
Thank you

Also I have run across failed OEM GPS modules in the past....

However this sounds like a cable problem as @RichWest suggests
