    What to do if Garmin GPS signal levels drop when avionics are turned on?
    • P
      Patrick WilsonAug 28, 2025
      If the GPS signal levels drop when you turn on your avionics, it's likely due to noise interference from other avionics. To resolve this, turn off all avionics and then turn them on one at a time to identify the source of the interference. Also, try routing the GPS cable and positioning the GPS antenna away from potential interference sources.
