How long until blinking?

Hello,

I own 2 FMB003 and one FMC003. While the FMBs came with battery connected, the FMC did not. I opened it, inserted the simcard and connected the battery. Then I connected it with the USB cable to my computer. How long does it take until the LED is blinking? Shouldn’t it blink when I connect it to USB?

Hi @Foobar

Good day, please find the details from our wiki page for the LED behavior of FMC003/FMB003.

That’s not really a reply to my question. It took quite some time when connected to a car and it does not work, when connected to USB. Not great to work all the time via Bluetooth in the car instead of sitting at a computer and configuring.

Hi,

Sorry for the confusion, Do you mean the FMC003 didn’t power on even though you installed the battery?

Can you try to connect it to a power supply with the OBD cable and see if it will power on?

No, I connected the battery and the device first started, when I connected it to a car (and started the engine). Everything worked but yesterday the device went completely down (car was just standing about 5 hours).

Hello,

Please check the following.

  1. Does the power supply of the OBD port from the vehicle range from 10V to 30V?
  2. LED of the device remain switched off?

In any case, if the device is dead you can return it to us for the RMA, to do this please contact your sales manager.
