Default GPS Issues

So I noticed recently that my GPS has all of sudden gone wacky. It now thinks I am 20 miles west of where I actually am. It's not that big of a deal since I use Waze for navigation, but it is also nice to have so that I don't always have to look at my phone to see where I am. Anyone else had this issue come up?

You're probably missing the "GPS" on top of your distance meter. Have you mess with the system recently? Check the gray plug on the back of the navigation system. Lexus forgot to plug it back in when they replaced my dashboard.

+1 FOR CHECK THE GPS PLUG. Lot of people forgot to plug it back in after they remove the unit.

I did just recently install the Vais Tech SL3B (Bluetooth Adapter). I swore I made sure to plug everything back into the head unit but I will definitely check again to make sure.
