2018 242 Limited SE I am getting a communication error GPS anytime I turn the batteries on. Have good voltage on both batteries and the GPS shows my position on the map. Does anyone know where this connection NMEA0183 would be? Or have any other things to check

After a few hours of reading all the threads on Jetboaters.net I was playing around with the connection at the GPS antenna and got the error to clear so I sprayed the connector with the Yamaha Yamashield and it is fixed so far.
