What to do if my Escort PASSPORT iQ Radar Detector cannot turn on?
If your Escort Radar Detector doesn't turn on, make sure the SmartCord is firmly attached at both ends of the cable. If that doesn't work, the built-in rechargeable battery may be weak; use the SmartCord to supply power or charge the battery.
Why is my Escort PASSPORT iQ not sensitive to radar or laser?
Ensure that the windshield wipers do not block the radar antenna and that the laser lens is not behind tinted areas. Also, determine if your vehicle has an Instaclear®, ElectriClear®, or solar reflective windshield, which may deflect radar or laser signals.
What to do if my Escort Radar Detector has intermittent GPS reception?
If your Escort Radar Detector experiences intermittent GPS reception, it could be due to a weak built-in rechargeable battery. Try using the SmartCord to supply power or charge the battery. Alternatively, the system software may have failed after a change; try turning the unit off and on again.
What to do if my Escort PASSPORT iQ Radar Detector will not activate after charging?

Why does my Escort Radar Detector beep at the same location every day?
