The current GL1 App Version is: v2.2
I just bought a GL1! How do I get started?
1. Plug-in the GL1 cable to the OBD-II connector in your vehicle, located under the dash, near your knee.
2. Plug-in the GL1 to your iPhone/iPod Touch 30-pin dock connector.
3. Start your vehicle and wait for a beep/shake to indicate that the GL1 is charging your device.
4. Unlock your iPhone/iPod Touch screen (if necessary).
5. IMPORTANT: If you already have the GL1 software installed, you will need to wait for the GL1 to begin charging your iPhone or iPod touch, before you begin using the software. This indicates that the GL1 has begun communicating with your vehicle and is ready to use.
6. Follow the on-screen directions to get the FREE GL1 App from the iTunes App Store if you don’t already have it.
7. If you have any issues, please call (248) 232-3078 for support.
How do I know if my GL1 is communicating?
Plug your iPhone or iPod touch into the GL1 and start your vehicle. When the GL1 starts communicating with your vehicle, the iPhone or iPod touch will begin charging. You may hear a beep or your iPhone or iPod touch may vibrate.
