Troubleshooting - Crunch 2160 Operation Manual

If the detector does not turn on:
•
Check the power cord. Be sure all power connectors
are properly installed.
•
Check the fuse that controls power to the cigarette
lighter socket. See your vehicle owner's manual
•
The cigarette lighter socket might be dirty. Clean it
with fine emery cloth to ensure a good, clean
connection.
•
Vehicle electrical problem exists.
•
Make sure that the volume control is in the ON
position.
Caution: Do not place any metal object other than the
cigarette lighter or a cigarette lighter plug in the cigarette
lighter socket.
Doing so could blow a fuse in your vehicle or cause the
metal object to become very hot.
If the detector gives a false alert when the vehicle hits
or bumps:
•
Check the vehicle's electrical system, including main
battery cable and alternator connections.
•
Install a filter capacitor (470uF.25volts) on the back of
the cigarette lighter socket, across the power
