import machine
from time import sleep
# Define the UART pins and create a UART object
gps_serial = machine.UART(2, baudrate=9600, tx=17, rx=16)
while True:
if gps_serial.any():
line = gps_serial.readline() # Read a complete line from the UART
if line:
line = line.decode(‘utf-8’)
print(line.strip())
sleep(0.5)
I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi.
Please double-check your RX-TX connection.
Double-check that you’re using the code with the right indentation.
Try commenting these lines:
line = line.decode(‘utf-8’)
print(line.strip())
and simply print the line content
print(line)
And see what you get.
Regards,
Sara
