Having problem getting the gps to work . I think I may have a break in the wire , sometimes when I shack the wire it will come on but not all the time Can you just replace the wire or do you have to get a new gps puck to , or can you find the bad spot and splice it and wire it back .

The GPS puck and wire is an all or none. If there is any issues, order a new one for $150 and replace it. I would not try and splice it. I am doubtful that your splice could even hold up to being re-pulled into place.

Did you try running the diagnostic test to see if unit is showing gps connected? Manual has instructions for how to do this.
