1) did you set the baud rate correctly for the NMEA output from your Starfire (19200)?
2) did you configure the starfire NMEA messages correctly (GPGGA, GPVTG, GPGSA)?
3) are the rx and tx pins on the RS232 connector matching the rx (and tx) pins at the GPS Switch connector?

If thats a new NMEA lead from JD, i'd speak to your dealer. Mine wouldn't work when new and the dealer swapped the wires around in the plugs but that was 4 years ago.

Was it pins 2 and 3 on the RS232 connector? There are adapters and wires that do this, one should just figure out first the correct order. It should be pin #2 on the GPS Switch connector that receives NMEA data. jd4055 should check if the JD lead has transmit data on pin #2. Can be measured with a multimeter if needed.

No, it was the male and female connectors between the receiver and the plug on the front of the cab.
Thinking on, it might have been something to do with the power. Are we sure the reciever is powered and working on the 2630 with the NMEA lead connected?
