Display Lamp

To read the Trip 500AL at night, use the display lamp. To

toggle the display lamp on and off, press PLUS when view-

ing the Current Readings screen. Be aware that the display

lamp does not work when the unit is operating on battery

power.

NOTE: The display lamp automatically shuts itself off after 10 min-

utes if the vehicle is stopped.

Restarting the Trip 500AL

If Trip 500AL display “locks up,” you may restart the Trip

500AL by pressing and releasing MODE and PLUS at the

same time. No log data, settings, or code information is lost

when you restart the unit.

NOTE: The tamper indicator will appear if you restart the unit in this

way, provided you use a security code other than 0000.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

While the Trip 500AL is designed to provide years of trou-

ble-free operation, occasional problems may arise. If you are

having a problem with your unit, please check the following

guide before calling the factory. You will be able to solve

many of the problems yourself. If, after checking this guide,

you are still unable to solve the problem, please call the fac-

tory at 1-510-732-7814 for further instructions. You may

also check the support section of our website (www.davis-

net.com) or send e-mail to tech support (support@davis-

net.com).

Please do not return your unit for repair without prior

authorization.

Many of the troubleshooting suggestions below relate to the

positioning of the magnet and sensor in driveshaft mounted

Trip 500AL units. If you have a VSS version, you should

ignore these suggestions.

NOTE: We will be glad to answer any questions you may have

regarding the operation of the Drive-Right unit itself. We can-

not, however, answer any questions relating to the installa-

tion of the unit in your vehicle.

❏ I can't turn my lamps off.

Make sure you are in the current readings

screen when you hit +.
