Hello Car Sharing Jho. I'm little confused about transferring the device for one vehicle to another? does it requires monthly service from provider? and what kind of SIM card requires? Thanks very helpful video. Might have another questions.
Transferring from one car to another is simply done by renaming the device on the app. I pay $10/month for every car through Trackmate's website. SIM car is already installed.
@@CarSharingJho .. one question. is the Trackmate shows where the ground and ignition switch cable are connected to the module along with the relay? is seem to be easy, but is not? specially thw relay and the ignition switch to the module. thanks.

@@richgenix some hosts use two trackers. Bouncie that monitors speeding, braking, on board computer, etc. And a hidden hardwired tracker like TrackMateGPS.

I’ve never done it on a motorcycle, but I imagine it would be just as easy as a car if not easier. GPS requires just 3 wires (contstant power, accessory/ignition and a ground). The kill switch you would just have to find a wiring diagram online and figure out which wire is for starter or ignition.
The way this is wired, if you click “disable” on the app while the car is running, it would just not turn on next time they try to start the vehicle. It’s only controlling the ignition.
We install trackers before renting out the cars. So this one was not ready yet. Our cars are vacuumed and cleaned before every single trip. I have another video on our process there too.
why do all that nonsense risking damaging the whole electic system, and computer system of the car, especially with that crapyy amateur's company, when there numerous far better options? like magnetic attach devices that last for a year, or only need to hardwire the power, and work even if battery disconnected, do a proper video with those devices, beside this amateur's hour stuff u did in this one

Knowing how to install a tracker is the best way to locate and uninstall a tracker that is still active on a vehicle you just purchased
Yeah we’ve actually found old trackers on two of our cars. Probably from when they were financed long ago.
When you hardwire, don't you need to add a fuse inline? Also, hardwiring, doesn't that overload the wire you're tapping into?
Only the 12v constant (red wire) is drawing power and it has a built in fuse inline.
Working power consumption is .78W and working current is 65mA.
I haven’t had any issues overloading a wire in 20+ cars I’ve wired it to.
You can also always connect the 12V constant to the battery as we did on our other video.

@@CarSharingJho I just ordered today. 375 for one tracker unit and three year plan
@@jayp_srt which one did you order?
@@CarSharingJho He didn’t give me a item number. He said it will have to be wired in. I will be able to track in real time, able to set boundaries, and I can tell if someone is tampering with it
@@jayp_srt I just didn't know TrackmateGPS sold it as a 3 year plan.
What is the cost of the tools
About $20-$30. Nothing fancy and I already had everything. -James
wow, this thing is good
Thank you!
what if my car is electric?
Sorry, I have never dealt with an EV.
Why didn’t you just put the tracker behind the radio?
I did in my other video. You can place it anywhere as long as the tracker doesn't have metal above it blocking the signal.
Nice dog
Thanks. He just got a haircut!
Can this turn off the car remotely
The way I wired it, you can disable it from starting again, but it won’t shut it off while it’s on.
how easy to hookup on motorcycle
I’ve never done it on a motorcycle, but I imagine it would be just as easy as a car if not easier. GPS requires just 3 wires (contstant power, accessory/ignition and a ground). The kill switch you would just have to find a wiring diagram online and figure out which wire is for starter or ignition.
@@CarSharingJho Thanks
Pls how can I get the device
Find it on Amazon. “TrackMateGPS”
Could you kill the vehicle while its running
The way this is wired, if you click “disable” on the app while the car is running, it would just not turn on next time they try to start the vehicle. It’s only controlling the ignition.
@@CarSharingJho oh ok, thank you.
If you wired it to cut the fuel then it would stop the car whilst running.
Mine came with a whole different thing mine came with a obd 2 port for power and a panic button
Yes that's new! Can now monitor gas level and miles.
GPS car tracking technology
...That car is in serious need of some tlc.
Yeah we buy all our cars for super cheap because they need work. Lol. This one never made it to Turo though.
Can I get number I want to come install
I don't install for others. You can reach out to a local stereo shop and they should be able to help you if you can't do it yourself.
That car is filthy, and you rent it out to people?
We install trackers before renting out the cars. So this one was not ready yet.
Our cars are vacuumed and cleaned before every single trip. I have another video on our process there too.

You forgot to show if the kill switch works with the engine on
It won’t do anything if you enable the kill switch while the car is on. It just won’t turn on the next time.
why do all that nonsense risking damaging the whole electic system, and computer system of the car, especially with that crapyy amateur's company, when there numerous far better options?
like magnetic attach devices that last for a year, or only need to hardwire the power, and work even if battery disconnected, do a proper video with those devices, beside this amateur's hour stuff u did in this one
Magnetic attach devices don't have kill switch.
