U7165 Not Starting up?

Post by ctt »

I recently purchased the U7165 for my 2005 F350 6.0.. The problem I have is when I plug the Predator into my diagnostic plug, nothing will show up on my Predator screeen, it doesn't start up.. Is it supposed to start automatically, or do I have to press some button? I just put two fresh batteries in the truck, so thats not the problem.

Check the fuse for the cigarette lighter, sounds like the fuse may be blown.

no, the Predator is supposed to power up when plugged into the OBD-II port.
