    Hello All!
    First post on this website, excited to join the community!

    A few weeks ago, I purchased a 2016 Tacoma TRD SPORT.
    I had BestBuy install a KickerHideaway subwoofer in my truck. The day after, my navigation system began to show the incorrect location of my vehicle, the weather app stopped working, and my dashboard clock now reads "--:--".
    I have looked into this, and I just cannot find a solution that will work for me.
    I'm coming here to see if anyone here has had a similar problem and could tell me what the fix to this situation would be. Thanks a ton Tacoma world!!!

    The default for the time is to pull it off the GPS satellites, so if you don't have navigation, then you probably won't get time. You can go into the settings and manually set the time.

    I thought the weather app pulls the data through a cellular connection so you might need to check your phone pairing. The location for the weather is also probably tied into the navigation as well.

    As to the navigation not working, I wonder if when they were messing with the back of the head unit they loosened the antenna connection; no "shark fin" would mean no navigation.

    Thanks for your answer. I am figuring that is what is wrong, just can't seem to figure out how to get it back. Have an appointment tomorrow with BestBuy again, hopefully they will fix it. And I will post what the solution was.
