CHECK THE BATTERY
Test the battery voltage to make sure it’s fully charged and inspect battery terminals for tightness and any corrosion. This
only takes seconds and can save hours of troubleshooting later.
3 – Turn the Vehicle OFF or Disconnect the Battery
TURN THE VEHICLE OFF BEFORE STARTING
Be sure to turn the vehicle OFF before starting, and keep the vehicle OFF until the installation is fully completed BEFORE
the vehicle is turned on.

charge a significant fee to reset the Fault Sensor.
