Confirm the vehicle is powered on.
Initial activation may take up to 5 minutes. If the device enters sleep mode during this time, gently move it to wake it up.
Wait until all three green LEDs are solid before continuing.
Tip
The LytxOne Gateway must be plugged in, and the engine must be running.
Please wait a few minutes before proceeding to the next step.
Step 2: Run Connectivity Verification Tests
The system will now run four automated tests to check the device connection.
-
Power Connection – Confirms the device is receiving power.
-
Mobile Network – Confirms a stable cellular connection.
-
GPS Signal – Checks for proper satellite signal reception.
-
Cloud Connection – Confirms communication with LytxOne cloud.
What to do if a test fails?
If a test fails, refer to the Installation Troubleshooting to diagnose and resolve the issue. Once the necessary checks and fixes are complete, use the Retry button to run the tests again.
Note
If the power and mobile connection tests fail, you will not be able to
proceed.
Confirm Vehicle Details
After the connectivity tests, verify the following vehicle details:
-
License Plate – Ensure the correct plate is entered.
-
Fuel Level – Check that the reported fuel level is accurate.
-
Odometer – Verify that the odometer reading matches the vehicle’s dashboard.

automatically
activated and begin reporting data to the system.
Warning
If at any point after an in-vehicle device is installed a warning lights
up on the vehicle dash or the vehicle stalls or has a marked drop in
performance,
shut off the engine, remove the device, and contact your reseller. Continuing
to operate a vehicle with these symptoms can cause loss of vehicle control,
and serious injury.
