TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
SYMPTOM
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Inflator does not turn on or
blows fuses
1. Push the power plug firmly into the receptacle and twist it
back and forth.
2. Check receptacle and plug terminal for dirt. Use a non-
conductive probe--not fingers or anything metal—to check
and clean receptacle and/or terminal.
3. Check vehicle power outlet fuse; should be a minimum of 10
amps.
4. Check inflator fuse, located
in the plug adaptor. To
access fuse, unscrew the
tip of the plug adaptor,
remove old fuse and
inspect. Replace fuse, if
needed.
Inflator runs but tire/article does
not inflate
1. Ensure universal adapter is properly seated on the valve stem
and tightened.
2a. Check tire/article for leaks. Check inflator hose for cracks and
leaks at fittings.
2b. Inspect tire/article to confirm there are no punctures or
sidewall tire damage.
3. If the tire is completely flat, it is possible that the tire has
separated from the rim. If so, the tire inflator will not deliver
the volume of air needed to inflate tire.
Inflator runs slowly
1. Inflator is overheated from too much use. Shut inflator off and
allow to cool for 20 minutes.
2. Voltage powering the 12V outlet is too low. Check the
condition of (car) battery.
