Well guys, the point is that this morning i was gonna mod some things from the puter of the car. So i plugged the Predator into the car, and damn nothig was happening, the Predator was dead

What i did was to use the Predator at home, obviously with energy not from the car. And voila, the damn thing worked, so i guess that the problem comes from that thing where you plug the Predator(the socket from the car). Does any of you have ever had this problem!!!

Please, some help would be greatly appreciated, because if i do not get this thing to work on the car, i will not be able to see live data from the Predator!

Yea check the fuse, then do a good inspection of the pins ( both pred and obd) before taking stuff apart.
