how do you turn it on? All I get when I plug it in is a blank rectangle. Also no power button.

You just turn your ignition key to on don't start the engine. It then starts its search. After it has completed its search touch enter then scroll down to say engine code then touch enter it will give you its code. Hit ESC then it takes you back to the beginning. Without the soft ware disc you cannot download to update it. After it has done its search you can start your engine scroll down to live stream hit enter and it will do its thing. If after all this and your screen is still blank its defective. Wayne

It does not appear to turn on when power is applied ... which is why I will be returning it. It requires pressing and holding the power button for ~3 seconds.

Have you plugged it in to charge? After it is charged you need to set it up. The "home" button will tell you what to do.

Might be a lose battery. Try to put a slight pressure on the battery while pressing power button. Also try to remove and re-install the battery.

Glad you got it fixed, but that didn't work for me. Pushing down hard (and holding down) the power button turns it off momentarily so perhaps the defect is in that area and you were able to fix yours by applying pressure while turning on/off the wireless. Would be interested to know if it works for anyone else. I've just gotten used to it being on at this point.

Try plug it to an USB port, maybe the battery is dry. You can also try Fasboot mode, Volume down+power button for about 10 seconds.

The power button is the source to turn it on. So, yes you have to use the power button. Did you try turning it on then unplugging it and plugging it back in to see if it would turn on that way?? I'm pretty positive though that you have to use the power button.

If it doesn't come on when you press the power button, try holding down the power button for about 30 or 40 seconds. Let it up and wait about 10 seconds. Then press it again normally and see if it comes on.

The power light (green LED on the right side) does not turn on when I plug my unit in either. It is necessary to press the On/Off button on either the remote control or the unit itself before the light comes on. On my unit, quickly pressing the On/Off button on the unit and releasing it does not light the light; I must hold the button for 2 to 3 seconds before the light comes on . Try holding the button for several seconds.

Press down & hold power button on the side of the unit. Hold for about 3-5 seconds & it should light up.

all you do is turn it on and hit the button on the side. If that doesn't work, try charging it for a while and if that doesn't work then you may want to call where it was purchased

This might sound crazy, but did you turn on the power button? It does not automatically turn on just because plugged into the wall... I've had mine for over a year now. Still working perfectly. Very happy. Good luck!

Hold down the power button. It looks like a broken circle with a line sticking out of it.

Make sure batteries are in correctly, then hold down power button. Good luck.
