Vehicle Types
Yes. Plug it into the OBD-II port (under the dashboard on most cars 2008+), draws power from the vehicle, reports immediately. No technician needed for a basic install.
No · FMC003 is Cat-M1 / NB-IoT (4G LTE-M). For 2G-only networks (parts of West Africa), use FMB003 (the 2G sibling) or FMB920 instead.
Standard OBD-II PIDs: speed, RPM, coolant temp, fuel level (if exposed by the vehicle), MIL/DTC codes. CAN bus profile depends on the vehicle · Teltonika ships an OBD CAN PID database covering most modern light vehicles.
Yes, OBD plug is accessible. For cars where covert install matters (rentals, leasing, anti-theft), use a wired tracker like FMC125 or FMB920 instead.

OBD-II port is under the dash · GPS antenna inside the device may be blocked by metal. Reposition or use FMC125 with external GPS antenna. Traxelio dashboard flags 'GSM only' positions as warnings.
Rare but possible on older European vehicles (pre-2008) with non-compliant OBD-II implementations. Unplug, the car starts. Use a wired tracker instead. Traxelio sets vehicle baseline before install to spot this.
Verify carrier supports LTE-M (Orange SN supports, Free SN partial, Expresso varies). Fallback: switch SIM to a roaming-friendly profile, or replace with FMB003 (2G) if your area has no Cat-M1 coverage.
