8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Device not powering on | Incorrect wiring; no power supply. | Check power connections (V+ and V-). Ensure the vehicle battery is charged. |
| No GPS signal (Blue indicator flashing) | Device in an area with poor satellite reception (e.g., indoors, underground parking). | Move the vehicle to an open area with a clear view of the sky. Wait for the blue indicator to become solid. |
| No network connection (Green indicator flashing) | SIM card not inserted correctly; no data plan; poor network coverage. | Reinsert SIM card. Check SIM card balance/data plan. Move to an area with better cellular coverage. |
| Inaccurate location | Weak GPS signal; device interference. | Ensure the device is installed in a location with minimal obstruction to the sky. Avoid placing near strong electromagnetic sources. |
| Remote commands not working | No network connection; incorrect wiring for specific functions (e.g., remote shutdown). | Verify network connectivity (solid green indicator). Check wiring for the specific function. |
