Troubleshooting
1.The screen without any display,and no power
Start the car engine; check if the OBD cable line is tight; please pull down the OBD cables more times to ensure; check if the product power switch turns on. If still no display, please change another card to test, analyze whether the car OBD diagnostic interface is good, if it is not good, please repair it and try again.
2.Only shows the car voltage and be automatic power off after 60 seconds when the device is with power this product just available for cars with OBD2 agreement and EU-OBD agreement(European region: after 03 years, Other regions: after 07 years) This Products don not support JOBD and OBDI and recommended test for another car.
3.Inaccurate Speed
a.First check the speed unit is correct or not, the speed unit including KM/H
and MPH, please refer to the setting to switch the unit.
b.When the product is power on, long press in the button to enter into the
menu option and right push once switch to setting, then short press in the
button to the menu and right push the button switch to the speed adjust
option.(if the dashboard shows 100, and the device shows the 101, change the
default value at 106%)
4.Inaccurate Fuel consumption
Check your car displacement, and set the device the same as your car(if your car is 2.0L, then change the device value at 2.0L).The fuel consumption can be adjusted, but we don’t suggest changing it , because all the data are read from the car ECU directly.
5.RPM Alarm
Default alarm is 6000 r ,please refer to the setting to change.
6.Over peed alarm
Default alarm is 150KM/H, please refer to the setting to change the value.
7.The device cannot auto power off
A.After the vehicle turns off, the device still displays the speed, switch the setting to Speed Offset, and adjust the value same as the device speed.(if the device shows 5KM/H after the vehicle turns off, then change the speed offset at 5KM/H) B.After vehicle turns off, the device still displays the RPM, switch the setting to sleep voltage,and make the value at 13.2V
8. Auto start and stop cars
Change the Power off time to 180s
9.Wrong operation lead to crashes
