Troubleshooting
Tester lights do not illuminate
Ensure batteries are correctly installed and are not depleted. Check battery contacts for corrosion.
Crimper not properly seating RJ45 connector
Ensure the RJ45 connector is fully inserted into the crimper die. Check that the connector is aligned correctly with the cable wires.
Network cable shows no connection after testing
Verify wire order (T568A/T568B) and ensure all wires are properly seated in the RJ45 connector. Re-crimp the connection if necessary. Test individual wires with the tester.
Tester indicates a short or crossed connection
This usually means wires are out of order or not making proper contact. Re-strip and re-crimp the connector, carefully following the wiring diagram.
