Default Xi5 Issues

Well I went out Saturday and my Xi5 does not find a satellite signal. When I hit the anchor button all I get is one beep. The satellite indicator light is not coming on either. Anyone have any idea what might be going on?

Call Motorguide, you need a software/firmware update. Google it, lots of info.

Well Mercury sent me the software update. I applied the update in my driveway on Thursday. After the update my Xi5 was finding the GPS signal again. I take the boat to the lake on Saturday and the stupid thing doesn't get a signal anymore. It won't get a signal in my driveway either in the same place it got one on Thursday. Good thing it is still under warranty Another call to Mercury on Tuesday.
