I'm trying to get GPS data using an ESP32 and a NEO-6M module. I connected everything as shown in the picture below (please see attachment).
After powering it on and going outside, I wait for a while. Eventually, the LED on the NEO-6M starts blinking, which (as I understand) means it has a GPS fix. However, the OLED display still shows "No Data", and I can't figure out why.
I'm really hoping someone can help me understand what might be going wrong. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
