So it shows you driving beside the road, is the name of the streets it displays the correct name of the streets? Did you try to do a master reset? Check this link

Do you have a hand held GPS? I'm betting the antenna is the issue. If the antenna doesn't capture the sat signal correctly the error factor is a HUGE circle of position probability. Most GPS units will need at least 3-4 sats to provide a decent position probability. Add to that the sats would need to be in different positions to provide the best chance of a small position probability.

Think of it like this. You look to the sky with one sat directly overhead, one sat half way up the horizon at your 3'oclock, one sat halfway up the horizon at your 9'oclock. This would provide the GPS the best signals to use for the calculation of your position and speed.

If you have oversjze tires it will throw off your ford gps.

I believe there is a TSB out for 13+ super duties to do with this problem.

Mine did this after I installed bigger tires.

I can't remember exactly but try doing this.

Park with a clear view of the sky and unhook the negative cable on both batteries.
Leave it in the open for about 30 minutes. Hook them back up and drive it.

Should fix it, as strange as it sounds.
Let me know if this works

I may have unhooked both positive and negative cables at the same time but try just negatives first

Mine does the same thing. Will have to ask my dealer about the TSB, or try Shone's suggestion.

I will try it for sure

Mine does the same thing with my larger tires. Did you try disconnecting the batteries?

My 13 dually does the same thing with stock tires on it

Your phone has the "network" that helps with the position as well. It's far from a stand alone GPS unit. Try turning off the network data and see what happens with the GPS.

So does anyone have a solution?

what I posted worked for me

Ok, I will give it a try. Thank you

I try it and it s not working for me
