Tips for troubleshooting microPod connectivity Issues
1. CASE 1: microPod does not power on. Please check to make sure you see lights on the microPod
when you connect the unit to the vehicle.

If there are no lights on the microPod when unit is connected to the DLC/OBD II port on  the vehicle, test the microPod on another vehicle(ensure that ignition is in the ON  position), if you are still seeing no lights on the microPod, the unit is defective and will  need to be replaced.

2. CASE 2: microPod is not flashing in an alternating patter of GREEN and RED.

If the microPod LED is not flashing GREEN and RED that is an indicator that the microPod  is not connected to Professional Diagnostic Tool wiTECH 2.0 Cloud. If you see the microPod LED flashing green only,  that is an indicator that the device is trying to connect to the network. To resolved this, connect the microPod via USB cable and start the microPod setup utility then check the microPod device manager settings to ensure the wireless network profile is properly configured. If you are still unable to connect, contact your IT administrator for assistance.
