Try removing battery cables and then wait 15 minutes, then reattach them.

This action will reset the computer.

Well i jumped it off my 97 Burb and it fired first try.


Do you think my passport 9500i could be draining the battery? I have had this detector plugged in 24/7 for the last 4 months with no problems. And i even drove the truck yesterday.

I am going to have the battery tested later today.
