TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE<br />

While the <strong>DriveRight</strong> <strong>600</strong> is designed to provide years of trouble-free<br />

operation, occasional problems may arise. If you are having a problem<br />

with your unit, please check the following guide before calling the factory.<br />

You will be able to solve many of the problems yourself. If, after<br />

checking this guide, you are still unable to solve the problem, please<br />

call the factory at 1-510-732-7814 for further instructions. You may also<br />

check the support section of our website (www.davisnet.com) or send<br />

e-mail to tech support (support@davisnet.com).<br />

Please do not return your unit for repair without prior authorization.<br />

Many of the troubleshooting suggestions below relate to the positioning<br />

of the magnet and sensor in driveshaft mounted <strong>DriveRight</strong> <strong>600</strong><br />

units. If you have a VSS version, you should ignore these suggestions.<br />

We will be glad to answer any questions you may have regarding<br />

the operation of the <strong>DriveRight</strong> console. We cannot, however,<br />

answer any questions relating to the installation of the unit in<br />

your vehicle.<br />

I can’t turn my lamps off.<br />

Make sure you are in the current readings screen when you<br />

hit +.<br />

When operating on batter power, the LCD segments are faint.<br />

Battery power is low. Replace the battery (see “Battery Operation”<br />

on page 24).<br />

The BAT segment is on when the unit is plugged into the car.<br />

The unit is not getting primary power (from the vehicle’s battery).<br />

Check the fuse in the power line for your car.<br />

My buzzer is faint or not audible when the unit is operating on<br />

battery power.<br />

This is normal.<br />

My <strong>DriveRight</strong> <strong>600</strong> and my speedometer do not agree.<br />

From the calibration screen, use the PLUS and MINUS keys<br />

to fine-tune the calibration.<br />

❏<br />

NOTE: The <strong>DriveRight</strong> <strong>600</strong> responds to changes in speed<br />

faster than most speedometers.<br />

My speed is intermittently reading zero while driving.<br />

This could be one of two things. First, make sure the speed<br />

sensor is within 10-16 mm (3/8"- 5/8") of the magnet. If it is,<br />

make sure the installed speed sensor protrudes at least 20<br />

mm (3/4") from the bracket.<br />
