How do i install navigation
Hi,
Go to your GPS company's website, and locate the "Maps" section. It will
usually be found under "Support" or "Updates" if there is not an
obvious "Maps" tab on the homepage. Plug your GPS into your computer
with a compatible USB cord. Follow the steps to installing the USB driver or plug-in from the
website. Click the "Download" link, and read and agree to their terms if
asked. Then press "Save file" if asked. Go into the "Maps" section of the company's website again, and go to the
"Update maps" section. Your GPS should be detected by the driver or
plug-in, and this will let you know if there are available updates to
install. There may be updated maps available for free, but you may have
to purchase them. Purchase and then press "Download." Follow the prompts
for accepting the terms of agreement, saving the file, and updating
your GPS device. Restart your GPS by unplugging it from the computer and waiting for it to update the new maps. Use as normal.
Does my furuno GP32 have
Hi!
Your Furuno Does NOT have an internal antenna. You have no choice but to install the external one.
Hope this helps.
To connect gps to computer wich pins do i connect ...
pins 2(-) and 5(+) on a 9 pin serial cable, then you need a usb to serial adapter for input into the computer if you do not have a built in 9 pin serial port on you computer because the usb moves the information faster than the gps signal. gps is roughly 4800 baud, usb is moving so much faster you need a buffer

Screen fading with lines in it
I had the same problem with mine - it is 5 years old and very well used. I was told I could send it for repair, but opted to purchase a new unit. You can find service centers on line. The cost did not seem to justify being without GPS and then still having a well used system. This was the best solution for me.
WAAS
sounds like the problem is with the pilot. You may be expecting too much from nav mode
you should check the antenna connector on the WAAS issue
on VX2, are you marking a good bottom on the sonar screen, but have no digital overlaid?
never seen it, must be a BB thing
Wiring
use the yellow and green
check for pulsing voltage on wires with digital meter measuring 12V
you must turn on the data in the Furuno menus
Can't Receiver ( No Signal )
if it has no signal , measure the antenna output with avo meter. you must see approximately + - 5V. if it is ok.. seems that antenna problem.furuno technician Ozgur CALIK
