    I installed my new Pioneer double din this morning and i cannot get the GPS to detect my location and whenever i go to settings it will not let me change any. Any ideas/info on how to get everything to work?

    If it wont let you change any settings, I would say your GPS antenna either isnt plugged in correctly (Not all the way/wrong spot?), or something may be wrong with the wire/antenna itself.

    It just seems that the system doesnt even think it is hooked up.

    Good answer...a lot of units will not let you change the settings without the parking brake being on.
