The indicator lights on your Fleetr OBD-II device show the current connection and GPS status of the device.
After plugging the device into your vehicle’s OBD-II port and turning the vehicle on, the indicator lights should begin blinking within approximately 30 seconds.
Below is an explanation of what each light pattern means and what you should do if you see it.
If none of the indicator lights are blinking after approximately 30 seconds, the device may not be receiving power.
First, make sure the device is firmly and completely plugged into the vehicle’s OBD-II port and that the vehicle is turned on.
