Find out more about the compatibility of your fleet vehicles with our OBD-II unit.

Updated over 6 months ago

The ODBII unit is compatible with most vehicles manufactured in 1996 or later.

The following vehicles are not compatible:

  • Vehicles from 1995 and older—OBD-II standards were implemented in 1996, so older vehicles cannot accommodate the OBD Reader.

  • Electric-only vehicles.

  • Ford Diesel engines 1996-2003 are incompatible.

When you install a ODBII you can use the CarMD port finder, the tool checks the compatibility of the vehicle.

Do not attempt to put the vehicle tracker into a vehicle without checking that it is compatible first. If the vehicle is not compatible, contact support.
