neo-m8p-2 rtk gps not working

GPS/GNSS Development Boards

One of the two neo-m8p-2 rtk gps i ordered is not outputting any data. I followed the hookup guide provided by sparkfun.

https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/gp … -guide/all

I made the setup using Arduino Uno and connected the sensor using I2C protocol and ran some example codes(I downloaded the sparkfun Ublox arduino library found in the hookup guide), all the above codes worked perfectly with only one of the sensors .

Hence I changed my connections to UART protocol and tried some different codes on the faulty sensor but still there wasn’t any difference.

So I decided to reset the sensor by connecting its RESET pin to Arduino’s GND and repeated everything again but still it didn’t show any output.

As of now I am sure that the sensor is getting gps data as its its PPS LED is glowing which I read in the guide means that its receiving values.

Help me please.

Hi yameen.

Sometimes you can get these stuck in a mode where it looks like they don’t work but we have a sketch that fixes that.

What you need to do is run the ResetModule sketch in our library and that should restore the GPS back to it’s factory defaults.

Hello Chris,

Sorry for late reply.

I had already tried the ResetModule sketch in the library on both the modules, but only one of the sensor seems to work.

Can you private message me your SparkFun order number?
