Your fuse for the OBD port might be blown. The Insight won't fire up until it sees power on the port.

Does it show you a splash screen? Or any startup text at all? If not, I don't know what to suggest except to call them.

Maybe try another vehicle for comparison?

I had to plug mine in a few times to get it to go. It seemed like it wasn't fully seated on the OBD. Does it work ok when you plug it into your computer (since you updated)? Also I once plugged it in with the truck off and for some reason it caused it to reset and malfunction. I don't really know - just thought I'd mention my experiences in case it helped. Bummer

was it new?? and who was the amazon seller? if it was amazon themselves i wouldn't worry

otherwise if it was one of their resellers I still think you have recourse through Amazon if something winds up wrong with the unit

and Edge won't help because it wasn't a authorized Edge seller

but it probably just needs a trip back to your lap top to reload everything
