Connectivity Issues

  1. ​Ensure the GO device has been properly added to your MyGeotab database on the Assets Page.

  2. Verify there are no device faults on the Faults page under the Maintenance tab. Use the Sources filter to select Telematics Device.​

  3. Verify the vehicle in question is in an area with good cellular coverage.

  4. Power on the vehicle and ensure the device is lighting up.

    1. If NO lights appear -- verify power is coming to the vehicle port. Check fuses, or test device in another vehicle if necessary

    2. Verify power from the harness, if applicable

    3. Install without a harness, or try a different harness if there is no power.

    4. Verify there is no physical damage to the device or harness

    5. If ONE light illuminates and the others flash, the device may be updating -- allow the device to sit 10 mins with ignition on

  5. ​If no GREEN light remove and reinsert the device. Once installed, the device needs to download the latest firmware, approx 10-15 min.

STEP 2: MYGEOTAB™ TRAINING

Geotab offers two different options for training:

1. Self-paced/on-demand

2. Scheduled training with a Geotab expert

 

To access these options first click on the “Support” tab on the left hand panel. Then click on “Help” and a panel on the right will appear. This panel offers a wealth of information such as walkthrough tutorials, a comprehensive video library, and more.
