Try replacing the antenna if no fault is found in the antenna cable or connector.
Remedy as necessary.

Other information:
- The GPS antenna has an internal resistance of approximately 60 ohms
- The resistance of the antenna cable between the carphone module and the connector in the right A-post, when measured using an ohmmeter, must be infinite between the signal cable and the shield or body ground
