DRBIII(R) DOES NOT POWER UP
If the LED's do not light or no sound is emitted at start up, check for loose cable connections or a bad cable. Check the vehicle battery voltage (data link connector cavity 16). Check for proper ground connection at DLC cavity. A minimum of 11 volts is required to adequately power the DRBIII(R).

If all connections are proper between the DRBIII(R) and the vehicle or other devices, and the vehicle battery is fully charged, an inoperative DRBIII(R) may be the result of a faulty cable or vehicle wiring. For a blank screen, refer to the appropriate body diagnostics manual.

DISPLAY IS NOT VISIBLE
Low temperatures will affect the visibility of the display. Adjust the contrast to compensate for this condition.




SOME DISPLAY ITEMS READ "___"
This is caused by scrolling the DRBIII(R) display a single line up or down. The line which was scrolled onto the screen might read "___". Use the page down or page up function to display the information.
