You may need to bend the battery contacts slightly to ensure good contact. This has worked for me.

Awesome help @Fitron! Thanks for stopping by @justjannie! As @Fitron suggested you might want to verify that there is proper contact between the battery and the battery contacts inside your Zip.

 

You can do this by opening the battery door of your Zip, removing your battery, and ensuring that the silver battery tab located in the lower right half of your tracker is flush with the white box outline in the tracker housing. The process can be followed here.

 

Let me know the outcome! 😉
