    Try disabling gps in the bios and see if bluetooth works then.

    Did you disable the gps in the BIOS or just turn it off with software?

    What is the diagnostic hardware//software?

    I would uninstall all bluetooth software and drivers, then reinstall them.

    I think you've disconnected bluetooth antenna for easier gps installation. Disassemble and check it.

    Good thought. It would be easy to disconnect the bluetooth antenna and not realize it.
