Apparent GPS failure

I was using SoloStorm with my RCP MK2 successfully, until recently. Two weeks ago it stopped giving me GPS data. Refresh rate is reporting as -1Hz. Not seeing speed on the RaceCapture app, either. I'm assuming something broke.
Any suggestions for what has failed and how to fix it?

I'm going to try putting my friend's GPS antenna on my unit to see if it works.

Swapping antennas didn't work. While diagnosing, I unplugged the WiFi and Bluetooth modules. After I plugged them back in everything suddenly worked. I'm suspect I had them plugged in backwards. Going to swap them backwards and see if it recreates the original problem.

Thanks for the updates. You can also check the status pages in the raceCapture app to verify the GPS quality. Let us know what you find out.
