Could be any kind of internal failure.  But I'd check out the antenna and
the antenna feed line.  I've seen broken ground shields and water wicked
inside the coax, is there DC in the center conductor (as measured at the
antenna end of the cable) so the amp inside the antenna can be powered.  Is
the  DC voltage correct?  Does the antenna work with some other GPS
receiver?
