Be sure it is plugged in to both connections properly. Mine has worked perfectly from day one. I fry chicken, shrimp, okra most of the time.

I advise you to send it back. I haven't tried to use mine yet. But it looks really tinneyand not very sturdy. I guess I should try it and see if mines as bad as yours.

Try cleaning and oiling/lubricate it. Also, being electric, see if your cord is still good.Otherwise, time to get a new one. Sorry!!

Hi, I am having the same problem with mine. I am sure these are defective items that are being resold. I have to shut it down, power cord in, turn it back on and then manipulate the cord just so. Sometimes it takes a few tries. When if starts to charge, I leave if alone, because it will stop even if lightly tapped. The charge doesn't last very long though. Very disappointed. I should have returned it when I got it.

I got the new power cord and it's worked perfectly. And it gets abused. Yours is defective or your GPS has a short

it could be anything, defective item, electrical problems, ect. I suggest you contact Amazon for an exchange. Mine is working perfectly till this day, we bought it about 5 months ago. I haven't ran into any problems..

I think the true fail is no power cord. ("standard" ones don't work - only the very uncommon micky-mouse ears ones do)

Try To Connect It To Another Device If Its Fuzzy It Most likely Bad, You Can Try To Connect Using The Cord Too. I Heard Some Were Bad Sounding.

When I got mine, it was completely non functional. Anytime I tried to turn it on, it flashed one light, then turned it off. I plugged it into my computer to see if it recorded anything, and it didn't even try to install device driver software. It's a waste of money if you ask me.

Hi Selina,I would make sure you did not have a power surge in your home. Make sure the device is completely plugged into the socket. If there is a reset button on the power outlet then do a reset. Beyond that, I am really not sure. Contact the person who you purchased it from and request a new one.I hope this helps. Good Luck!

Mine had an intermittent Power cord connection. Try wiggling it or try a different PC power cord. The power cord connection pins are too short.

Make sure the input and output are correct. If it still doesn't work then it's the power source. Try a different outlet.

"I" myself, have not experienced anything like that but, perhaps try unplugging or disconnecting the power cord for a minute or so, then reconnecting, - effectively "rebooting" the unit-- that may work.

That happened to me after a few months of use. I called wild game innovations and I explained to them that it wouldn't power on and they asked I send it in to them. Promptly after I sent it into them they sent me a brand new one. To this day the new one they sent me works perfectly!

Yeah, get rid of the f'ng thing and buy one that works. I f'ng hate this product. It stops working intermittently for no reason..

I'd comtact the seller and get a refund or get them to give another device. Could be defective. Not sure but mine works. Could try unplugging and retrying. Or if your not using the correct power adapter to use that. Not much details on how you have it hooked up. Main thing here is to contact seller to find the best solution.

The power cord would not charge the device....it would show that it's connected but it wasn't charging the device. I tried charging it overnight but was still not charging!!!
