Opticbook 3800 won't turn on when plugged in and connected

it flooded. step on the gas pedal fully and crank the engine; that forces it to go into a clear flood mode by turning off the injectors. it may take a little while, but it will start.

Your factory motor is the 3800 V-6 for your model. You can get the firing order from your local parts store...(Auto Zone will print this for you for free) then you just need to identify the #1 cylinder spark plug and follow the firing order...if you have a friend with the GM 3800 V-6 (popular GM motor) you can also compare the firing order (plug wires) Hope this helps.

Run a search for the scanner software on the internet and download it then install it to your computer. (type in microtek scanmaker 3800 software) Then connect the scanner to your pc and turn it on.

Reinstalling the latest driver for your scanner should correct any software related issues.
You can find the drivers for your scanner here: Drivers V 4.2.2.2
1. Download the driver and save it to a folder on your desktop. You will then need to right-mouse click the file and EXTRACT the installation files. Do not run the installation with the scanner connected.
2. Turn off your computer and disconnect the scanner.
3. Restart your computer with the scanner disconnected and run the scanner installation program found in the folder, usually SETUP.EXE. Follow the prompts. Do not reconnect the scanner until prompted to or the installation ends.
Please be aware that the scanner installation file is 118MB and may take quite a while to download depending on your internet connection.
Happy Scanning, Myridom

Try NOT connecting your camera to your computer.

The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program.

There is a new driver for Mac for the OpticBook 3600 on the Plustek driver download page. Download and install DigiBook_OB3060.dmg. It works well, excepted for rotating pages.

Change plugs check wires for correct connection. Check pcv for vacuumn leaks. Starter fluid on mass air flow meter may damage it.

I had my 3800 stop with the 1600 error code, and after trying several things, I did hit on one thing that worked for me. I unplugged the printer without turning it off, let it set a minute or so, and then reconnected and turned it on. That worked for me and I am now printing again. Just turning off the printer did not work; I assume it stores the error and reloads it when turned on again. Pulling the plug did not give it a chance to store any info.

I should note that I did have to go back and find the printer, and connect it to the network however (Windows 7).
