Default iTSX not connecting with truck?

Anyone have an iTSX device had this issue? I went to load a test tune, plugged it in and no power to the device. I connected the laptop to the device plugged into the OBD port and get all the way to reading the custom tune, but it cannot connect to the ecu.

I just unplugged it this week and it was working fine. I loaded the test tune onto it fine. When I plug it into the port though - nada with the key off, in acc or started.

Will it work with any Bluetooth OBD2 scan device? Maybe that part has gone bad. I find the $20 BAFX brand more reliable than the $10 devices.

Dunno. Am going to head to Pepboys today to see if I can find something to test the port.

If it's not getting any power to the OBII port, first thing to check is if your fuse is blown.

Sometimes ( although not all that often usually lol ) it's the simple things. Let me know that and can go from there.

Went through the entire fuse list and there was nothing that stated the OBD port. Ugh!
