Satellite navigation maps randomly disappearing
Hi Everyone,

I recently dropped off my Defender 130 YM2024 at the dealer after a year of ownership to address a few issues. One particularly frustrating problem is that my satellite navigation maps randomly disappear while I'm driving until they're completely gone with only the base -gray- layer remaining. I'm currently on 4.2.1 Pivi Pro update, and a system reset didnโ€™t resolve it.

A rather strange behavior occurs when I try to eject the SIM card from the vehicle: the maps briefly reappear, only to disappear again. Furthermore, Iโ€™m no longer receiving traffic updates on the satellite maps, even though my SIM card data is still functioning.

The dealer mentioned that satellite navigation maps are linked to the InControl system, which my vehicle lacks due to regional restrictions. However, Iโ€™ve had fully functioning maps for well over a year, so that explanation doesnโ€™t quite make sense to me.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue? Any thoughts on what might have caused this problem?

I responded on the other site, but I'll tell you the same thing again on here: This is a problem with the cellular connection. That happens to me sometimes when I'm in an area with poor reception. You're most likely having cellular interference or in a spot with bad cell service. ๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ ๐ƒ๐ž๐Ÿ๐ž๐ง๐๐ž๐ซ ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ ๐’ ๐๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŽ๐ŸŽ (Pangea Green over Acorn/Lunar)

Thank you for your response. It appears the issue persists even in areas with excellent mobile coverage.
