    if you are refering to the GPS board blue blinking / solid blue light it is there to indicate 3D fix of GPS (got more than 3 satellite "connected" )  it will stay solid when 3D fix acquired and will flash if not.

    Torin, If you refer on cable and wire colors of it. Yes there are difference on my earlier picture and this picture that you posted. But you can only put this connector one way. I just checked MTek adapter and and GND is on lowest pin of adapter when it is facing to you like in this your picture. Gray wire that goes to MTek is actually (EN)able wire.
