Hi all, got my gauges in my dash, electric speedo, fuel gauge, and tach. Hooked everything up andeverything works. Shut the truck off and turned it back on and the speedo starts to move with the tach. So I figureed I'd recalibrate the GPS module. It calibrates fine but when i start driving, it doesn't move. It was just working 5 minutes ago. There's power to the gauge and power to the GPS unit. What could have gone wrong? All connections are still tight.

... I guess it just takes time for the GPS interface to pick up a signal. It works as it should now. Oops

I know my speed hut GPS speedometer takes a little while to come on if I start the truck up and shut it off and then start it again.
The thing is it will come right up on the first start. It's suppose to have what they call instant start but it doesn't work.

It's doing it again, this time a regrounded it to the block. I drove 15 miles and it started to act funny again on me. Is it thee signal wire that's the issue now?
