Hi,
I am using the Ultimate GPS breakout board with an Arduino Micro and can't get to read serial either using SoftwareSerial or direct serial using the examples provided.
http://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-ulti ... ter-wiring
I get to write to serial and get output on the Serial monitor but when connecting the GPS to RX, TX as mentionned, with empty setup() and loop(), I get nothing with 9600 bauds.
The red led flashes every second as there is no fix, even after an hour.
Is there any other way to troubleshoot?
Can't read serial from MT3339

I gave it another try. Hooked it up as direct connect (http://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-ulti ... ter-wiring) and uploaded the 'blank' sketch. Can't get any output from the GPS' serial.
You're help is appreciated.

TX/RX is reversed. Switch the TX and RX on the Micro and you should be in business.
