Adafruit Ultimate GPS Not working

Post by subodh_subu »

Hello,
I am using Adafruit Ultimate GPS break out board with Beagle Bone Black. I am not able see any NEMA output. I would imagine the FIX Led should be blinking on start up until it picks up the satellite. But It is not blinking at all. I checked the voltage at the pins. it is 5v. Is this a defective item?

Please post clear, detailed pictures of both sides of the module, showing your soldering and wiring

Thanks for your reply.
It is working now. I am getting NMEA messages now. I guess it was my bad soldering.
