What does it mean when the ETC card has expired?
1 Answers
ETC expired means that the ETC electronic tag is invalid and cannot be used, which also includes the situation where the ETC card is expired and cannot be used. The ETC installation process is as follows: After receiving the device, first check whether the ETC card and electronic tag (OBU) are damaged. Press the anti-tamper button on the back of the OBU, the red light will briefly turn on, and the OLED screen will display "Tag Invalid" or "Please Insert Card", indicating that the device is functioning normally. Clean the front windshield to keep the glass surface smooth, clean, and dry. Then peel off the adhesive protective film on the back of the OBU and stick it to the installation position. Press it firmly with your hand for 2-3 minutes to remove any air bubbles. Insert the ETC card with the front side facing the driver and the back side facing the windshield, ensuring the chip is inserted into the OBU device. ETC activation method: Insert and remove the ETC card twice in succession until the electronic tag screen displays "Bluetooth On". If inserting and removing twice without the electronic tag attached shows "Tag Invalid", this is normal and does not affect activation. Alternatively, you can directly press the button on the top of the electronic tag to enable Bluetooth. Turn on your phone's Bluetooth and open the corresponding mobile app (usually there is a download QR code on the electronic tag), then enter the device activation interface. Click on "Device Connection" and patiently wait for the "Connection Successful" prompt. After successful connection, upload a photo of the vehicle's front to complete the activation.
