GPS no longer working on flex8400

New flex8400. GPS worked fine for 2 days. Now, the GPS status always says "Warming up" while the gps indicator is flashing yellow. GPS is showing 15 sat visible. GPS antenna location has not changed since it stopped working.

Tried disconnecting the antenna and powering off the radio for 5 min. Did not fix the problem.

Suggestions?

    Without further information as to the antenna placement like ground floor, basement, etc., repositioning the antenna was the first logical thing to do. I had similar experience with my antenna in the drop ceiling in basement near an outside wall. No windows nearby. It only took moving it about 6" or so, then bingo.
