Troubleshooting Common Issues

While the Hyper Tough HT300 is a reliable tool, you might encounter some common issues. One frequent issue is the inability to connect to the vehicle’s OBD2 port.

Ensure the HT300 is properly connected to the port and that the vehicle’s ignition is turned on. If the connection still fails, try a different OBD2 port if available. Another common issue is receiving an error message on the HT300 screen. This could indicate a problem with the tool itself, a faulty connection, or a communication error. Restarting the HT300 or checking the connection can resolve this issue. If these troubleshooting steps don’t fix the problem, refer to the HT300’s user manual for more detailed troubleshooting guidance or contact Hyper Tough customer support for assistance.
