If you do not observe LED’s, please check the vehicle’s power source to the device for a bad fuse. If you are hard-wiring the device, verify that the ground connection is good. If you are plugging the device into the vehicle’s OBD-II port, check the owner’s manual to determine which fuse provides power to the port and verify that it isn’t bad.

An experienced technician can run a volt meter to the OBD-II port to verify that it is receiving 12 volts of power.  Find a ground source for the negative test connection and tap the positive end of the test connection to port 16 of the OBDII port.

Green LED’s

The unit will power up as the vehicle’s ignition is turned on. The Green LED will show solid for approximately 30 seconds (there may be some brief flickers initially while the device initializes). However, after initial startup, the LED should flash in the following sequence.

Ignition on: Rapidly blinks 25 times on and off every 10 seconds. Ignition off: Slow blinks 8 times on and off every 8 seconds. After several hours of being parked, it will blink once every 3 seconds.

A properly functioning device should have a flashing green LED and no red LED’s after it is fully booted.
