Smartphone Setup Step 1: Download Delphi Connect Smartphone App • Launch your smartphone’s app store - either Google Play Store for Android or App Store for iPhone. • Search for the Delphi Connect app and download it to your smartphone. If the app is not available for your phone, please use the website at uscc.delphiconnect.com.
Step 2: Sign In to your Delphi Account Launch the Delphi Connect app. • In the Username field, enter the Registration Key exactly as it is printed on the module label – including the dash. • In the Password field, enter the MEID Dec exactly as it is printed on the module label. • Review and accept the privacy statement and terms of use. • When prompted, change Username and Password to something easy to remember but hard for other people to guess.
Step 3: Find Your Vehicle’s OBD Connector Port It’s usually on or under the dash, on the driver’s side. Other possible locations are the center console area or inside the glove compartment. Need help finding your vehicles OBD port? Use the OBD Locator in the app to see a picture of where the OBD port is in your vehicle. After logging in for the first time, click the button labeled OBD LOCATOR. If needed, you can access the locator from the web site and from the app.
Step 4: Install Your Module ® Use your U.S. Cellular smartphone to check that you have a strong signal where your vehicle is parked. • Make sure your vehicle is parked outside in a safe location and the engine is turned off. • Now plug the module into the OBD port (or into the extension cable if it is required). Make sure that the module is fully seated. • Wait for the Status LED to turn solid blue. For helpful installation Tips – See delphiconnect.
• • • • Press and hold the Function Button on the side of the Vehicle Monitoring Module until the Status LED blinks red one time. This will occur after approximately 5 seconds. Then release the Function Button. The LED will blink red while vehicle setup occurs. Wait up to 30 seconds for the LED to display a mix of solid and blinking green. Wait an additional 10 seconds for the LED to go out. When the LED begins to flash blue every 10 seconds, setup is complete.
Step 6: Verify Module Setup • Start the engine and let it run for at least 30 seconds. Stop the engine and wait at least 20 seconds. You are now ready to access your vehicle information using the Delphi Connect app. • Finish Setup Using the Delphi Connect App • Open the Delphi Connect app and, if needed, Sign In using the Username and Password you created in Step 2. See page 8. • You should see the Dashboard screen. If not, tap the Retry button.
Module Removal & Re-Pairing Procedure In the event that you need to bring your vehicle in for service or to have it inspected, where the OBD port needs to be accessible, it is recommended that you remove the Vehicle Monitoring from your OBD port.
