What do I need to connect my Garmin 315 VHF to my Garmin GPSMAP 1042xsv chartplotter for GPS capability? The VHF alarms out after a few min due to no GPS input. There is no cable connected between the two and I'm not sure what type of cable I need.

You need an NMEA 2K backbone in your boat. If you already have a backbone, connect the VHF 315 to the backbone using an NMEA drop cable.
