GPS Co-ordinates

[nagrom]

Heading to Spain & Portugal tomorrow in a 911 991.gen1 and cant get the sat nav to accept the GPS co-ordinates, it will only allow me to input W & E, not N & S. Can anyone help please? Have tried a couple of dealerships and they were unable to help...

Assuming it’s done the same way as PCM 3, try Navi>Enter Address>Option>Adv. Destination Input>Geo Co-ordinates

Hope this helps

Thanks but this is what I'm doing and when it comes to entering, say, N, W, E or S it will only allow me 2 choices, i.e. E or W

The online manual isn’t particularly useful!

All I can think is maybe after you’ve done the E/W co-ord, type the N/S co-ord numbers in the same box and you can then choose N/S.

Would if I could but they are not highlighted as an option! Oh well, get the map out.

Sorry I couldn’t help, with all problems like this I expect it’ll start working the day you get home.

Hope you have a good trip!

Thanks for trying.

Have you tried entering the first co-ordinate, and changing the compass point using the arrow button bottom left of screen to show E/W option, then entering the second co-ordinate and selecting that compass point?

That seems to work, thank you!!

I wonder what led Porsche to feel the need to add this step while updating PCM 3.0 to 3.1?!

Glad it’s sorted!
