Are you flying an add-on plane? Some add-ons don't have GPS, and some have the GPS mapped to another SHIFT + combination.

-Check your Settings>Controls>Button and Keys assignments and make sure Shift+3 is still assigned to 'Panel window 3 (display/hide)'

-Check your Gauges folder for the 'fs9gps.cab' file.

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

So you see the GPS momentarily, and then it vanishes??

Maybe you're holding the 3 down to long?? doing so will send repeats of the 3 key, depending on your keyboard settings.

What happens if you click on the GPS sim icon in the 2D panel?
