CCS Technical Documentation Troubleshooting - GPS
Troubleshooting - Global Positioning System (GPS) Engine
The RH-34 handset supports 800 Amps and 800 CDMA / 1900 CDMA + GPS with IS 2000
capability. The RH-34 engine supports CDMA and GPS functionality for Enhanced 911
(E911) services.
GPS circuitry utilizes RF signals from satellites stationed in geosynchronous orbit to
determine latitude and longitude of the handset. The GPS circuitry and the cellular
engine (CE) circuitry are completely separate in the handset. The GPS circuitry is located
almost exclusively on the secondary side of the PWB, underneath the display module.

5a. Self-Test Failure:
• Repeat Steps 1-5 for first failure. If the test still fails, continue.
• Inspect all GPS circuit elements around D051.
• If pass visual inspection, then replace D051.
5b. Oscillator Failure:
• Inspect all GPS circuit elements around D051.
• If pass visual inspection, then replace B002.

5c. CW Test Failure:
• Check that signal generator is on and sourcing a signal to the GPS RF input port (X001).
• Inspect all GPS RF circuit elements.
• Inspect all GPS circuit elements around D051.
• If all visual inspection looks good, then replace GPS RF IC (N001).
