If your YB3i purchased from PredictWind is not transmitting correctly or your PredictWind GPS tracking page is not updating please check the following:

  1. Ensure the YB3i unit has power, and any connections in the electrical circuit are good.

  2. You have a Standard or Professional forecast subscription with us.

  3. There is an LED indicator on the bottom of the YB3i unit. The LED has the following indicator modes:
    Intermittent green flash – running on external power
    Intermittent red flash – running on battery
    Red/Green alternating – booting up or updating firmware
    Off – in shipping mode, stealth mode, or the battery has run out and there is no external power

  4. Hardware reset the YB3i by swiping the reset magnet all the way around the outside edge of the unit. The unit will beep after about 10 seconds, and will then be reset.

  5. If the above suggestions do not work, then contact support with the details below:

  • Name and contact number

  • The serial number of the YB3i (see serial number label)

  • Symptoms of the fault

  • History of action taken to attempt to rectify the fault

Please remember that the more information you can give us, the better we’ll be able to help you.
