    GPS screen now showing all blue as if it thinks I’m at the bottom of the ocean. Any entered address now gives error “Not navigable”

    Anyone have troubleshooting tips?

    Maybe it is designed to stop working after 10 years if you have never updated the map ?? :whistle:

    It is broken. Get a Garmin or use your phone.
    Or start shopping for a newer car. Other things likely will continue to fail.

    Our 2012 v Five still navigates. Maybe the OP went over the edge of the flat earth where there be dragons.

    I'd have to guess the antenna went bad. Were you ever able to find a diagnostic screen where it shows the number of satellite fixes?

    No. How do you go about finding the diagnostic screen?
