🔧 Troubleshooting Connectivity for the DIMO AutoPi
If your data isn’t being updated, try these steps to troubleshoot your AutoPi device’s connectivity:
Step 1: Check your app
After logging in, tap the Rewards button on the bottom menu, and check if the vehicle is labeled “Qualified.”
Step 2: Check your cable
Make sure the device is firmly connected. If you're using an extension cable, check both the connection to the device and to the OBD2 port.
Step 3: Power cycle your device
Unplug your device and plug it back in. This quick reset is often enough to fix the issue.
Step 4: Check your device’s lights
When starting your car, look for the blue and green lights—they may take 1–2 minutes to light up after the car starts.
Step 5: Go for a drive
After your next drive, check the vehicle qualification status again in the app.
🔧 Troubleshooting Connectivity for the DIMO Macaron
We know connectivity issues can be frustrating—here’s how to get your DIMO Macaron back on track.
The DIMO Macaron uses Helium network coverage to send data. If it can’t reach a Helium hotspot, it won’t be able to update your vehicle’s data.
Step 1: Check Helium coverage
Visit https://world.helium.com/en/iot/hotspots. Green hexagons indicate coverage. Make sure you’re regularly driving within one of those zones.
Step 2: Power and placement
Ensure the device lights are on when the vehicle is powered. If your car battery is low, it can put the device into sleep mode.
Step 3: Reset the device
Unplug the Macaron for a full minute, then plug it back in while the vehicle is on and within Helium coverage.
Step 4: Go for a drive
After your next drive, in the DIMO app, tap the Rewards tab. If your car shows “Qualified”, you're connected, minted, and on track for rewards the following Monday.
