Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and proper functioning of your LAUNCH Original Charger, please follow these care and maintenance guidelines:
- Keep Dry: Always keep the charger and cable dry. Avoid exposure to moisture, rain, or any liquids, which can cause electrical damage.
- Temperature: Do not expose the charger to extreme temperatures, either hot or cold. Store it in a moderate environment.
- Handle Cable Gently: Handle the power cable gently. Avoid bending or twisting it sharply, especially near the connectors, as this can damage the internal wires.
- Disconnect When Not in Use: For extended periods of non-use, disconnect the charger from both the wall outlet and your diagnostic scanner.
- Cleaning: Clean the charger with a soft, dry cloth if necessary. Do not use harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your LAUNCH Original Charger, refer to the following troubleshooting steps:
Scanner Not Charging or Powering On
- Check Power Outlet: Ensure the wall outlet is functional by plugging in another known working device (e.g., a lamp or phone charger).
- Verify Connections: Confirm that both the AC plug of the charger is securely inserted into the wall outlet and the DC barrel connector is firmly seated in the charging port of your LAUNCH scanner.
- Inspect Cable: Carefully check the entire length of the charger cable for any visible damage, such as cuts, kinks, or frayed wires. A damaged cable can prevent proper power delivery.
- Confirm Compatibility: Double-check that your specific LAUNCH scanner model is listed as compatible with this charger (CRP123i, CRP123e, CRP123x, CRP129i, CRP129e, CRP129x, CRP909e, CRP909x).
If issues persist after performing these checks, please contact customer support for further assistance.
