8.2 Inaccurate Location Data
- Signal Interference: Move the tracker away from other electronic devices that might cause interference.
- Placement: Ensure the tracker is not placed in a position where its view of the sky is significantly obstructed.
8.3 Battery Not Charging
- Charger Connection: Verify that the wall charger is securely connected to both the battery pack and a working power outlet.
