Fix GPS signal issues on the AIO-5 Lite external GPS module

Check the AIO-5 Lite external GPS module position and allow 10 minutes for a signal in an open outdoor area.

If your AIO-5 Lite shows no GPS signal or a GPS error, check the external GPS module's position, then allow 10 minutes for satellite acquisition in an open outdoor area.

Check the GPS module position

  • Keep the GPS module clear of metal surfaces and carbon fiber panels, which can block the signal.

  • Position the side marked TOP toward the sky.

  • Keep the GPS module at least 20 cm from the CHIGEE Display and cameras, and away from wiring.

  • Secure the module with 3M adhesive. If fitting it inside the motorcycle's bodywork, choose a location without metal or carbon fiber above it.

For mounting examples, see Position the external GPS module.


Test the GPS signal outdoors

  1. Take the AIO-5 Lite to an open outdoor area with a clear view of the sky. Do not test satellite acquisition indoors.

  2. Power on the AIO-5 Lite and allow 10 minutes for the GPS signal to connect.

What to expect after restarting

  • After more than 30 minutes powered off: The AIO-5 Lite performs a new satellite search. Allow 10 minutes for this check.

  • After less than 30 minutes powered off: Saved satellite data can make acquisition faster. Still allow the full 10 minutes before concluding that the signal has failed.


If there is still no GPS signal

If the AIO-5 Lite external GPS module is installed correctly but still has no signal after 10 minutes in an open outdoor area, contact us to request a replacement GPS module. Include a photo of the installation, the location of your outdoor test and confirmation that you waited 10 minutes.
