    Updating your gps is necessary for it to work. If that fails, then you may need to take it in to the dealership.

    There's a chance that there is no cell service in your area. Check to see if your phone is working on 3G or LTE. The operating system on your GPS may also be outdated, cross check what it says in the settings with what you find on Google for the make/model. Other than that, a factory reset may be in order.

    Most likely the roads have changed after the map was programmed, or the map was a pre-construction one. Try updating your software to the most recent map set.

    Get a SIM card. Google the specific make and model of the GPS to be sure of the size, and look around places like Ting Mobile, Sprint, and T-Mobile to find a good deal.
