How to Reactivate and Use ETC After Removal from Vehicle?
1 Answers
To reactivate and use the ETC after removal from the vehicle, follow these steps: Insert and remove the ETC card twice consecutively until the electronic tag screen displays "Bluetooth On." If the screen shows "Tag Invalid" when inserting/removing twice without the tag attached, this is normal and does not affect reactivation. Alternatively, press the button on top of the electronic tag to enable Bluetooth directly. Turn on your phone's Bluetooth and open the corresponding mobile app (usually a download QR code is provided on the electronic tag), then enter the device activation interface. Click "Connect Device" and wait patiently for the "Connection Successful" prompt. Once connected, upload a photo of the vehicle's front to complete activation. ETC Working Principle: Via dedicated short-range communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the toll station's ETC lane, the system uses computer networking technology to process backend settlements with the bank. This allows vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping while automatically paying the required fees.
