Another Great Tool For Car Security!
Darkside Posted
Basically, this is a tracking system for your car. Easy to plug and setup in your car's diagnostic port. Great for when you are in a large parking lot and forget to know where your car is. Love the feature that show when doors or trunk have opened.

I purchased this for a 2014 chevy spark ls. I was excited when I received the product but when I connected it to the car OBD2 port it did not connect and stayed on internal charge. I followed the instructions as directed.

Hi DIONC.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review of the Ring Car Alarm. We understand the importance of a seamless setup process so that you can begin using your Ring Car Alarm right away. The features and technology provided by the Ring Car Alarm are incredibly valuable and help provide you with peace of mind about your home security.

It sounds like your device is not operating as expected in regard to the installation. When the device stays on internal charge after being plugged into the OBD-II port, this typically means it is not receiving power from the vehicle's port. Here are a few things we recommend trying:
1. Ensure the device is fully seated — Push the Ring Car Alarm firmly into the OBD-II port until you hear or feel a click.
2. Check your vehicle's OBD-II fuse — A blown fuse can prevent power from reaching the port.
3. Remove any third-party OBD-II accessories — Bluetooth adapters, splitters, or pass-through cables can interfere with the connection.
4. Try with the ignition on — Some vehicles only supply power to the OBD-II port when the key is in the ON position.
