HELP!! Uconnect GPS and Compass not working

[Husker7]

I just recently purchased a 2017 RAM Laramie, when I updated the uconnect software to 18.45.01 my Uconnect navigation says I am located in San Antonio, Texas and . I am currently located in Nebraska. I also noticed that the compass was 180 degrees off. After contacting RAM support and trying factory resets and driving in circles to calibrate the GPS, nothing has worked. Has anyone had similar issues?

That's the default location. Give it a day to settle in. If it still hasn't changed, there is an in-line fuse you can pull that's just for the radio near the battery and brake booster. If you can't find the fuse, disconnect the battery for 15-30 minutes then reconnect it and see if your issue persists.

UPDATE

After driving my truck for a little over 2 months. I noticed my navigation and compass started working. For whatever reason it just now started to work the way it should. I didn’t take it in to a dealer or do any repairs on it, it just fixed itself
