First off what car have you tried this in?
And - have you been stationary while waiting for the Sat signal (moving around i.e. driving makes it difficult for the device to work out where it is).
Leave the device powered up for 30 mins with a clean line of sight to the sky, away from buildings etc and does it achieve a signal or not? - Mike |

I'm intrigued as to how you bought a brand new Go Classic? They've not been a current model for yonks. |
