Tips for troubleshooting microPod connectivity Issues.
CASE 1: microPod does not power on.
Please check to make sure you see lights on the microPod when you connect the unit to the vehicle. If there are no lights on the microPod when unit is connected to the DLC/OBD II port on the vehicle, test the microPod on another vehicle(ensure that ignition is in the ON position), if you are still seeing no lights on the microPod, the unit is defective and will need to be replaced.
CASE 2:
microPod is not flashing in an alternating patter of GREEN and RED.
If the microPod LED is not flashing GREEN and RED that is an indicator that the microPod is not connected to wiTECH 2.0 Cloud. If you see the microPod LED flashing green only, that is an indicator that the device is trying to connect to the network.
