You are seeing no GPS Satellites, so changing the correction satellite is not your problem. #1 are you outside so the antenna can see the sky?

Here is how I would diagnose if I had it sitting here.

Shake the gps antenna to see if you hear water sloshing inside. If so, buy a new antenna.

With the display turned on use a multimeter, check across the antenna end of the cable between center pin and outside of nut to see if you have 5 volts. If not do the same where the cable connects to the monitor. If still no voltage, it is something in the monitor. If you have 5 volts at the monitor, it is a bad cable. You can also check for a bad cable by checking for resistance between the center pin and the outside nut with the cable disconnected on both ends.
