mynbmr 225 Report post Posted October 22, 2010 I got my Alarm and GPS Tracker installed this week, $1400 later. The GPS is not working. I cant make contact with my phone and I have a Telecom Prepaid SIM Card in there, which is working because I tested it in my phone and it is activated. I had a look where the BOx was and the red light is permanently on red where is should be either flashing or green. I had to cut the orange wire because the horn kept going off all the time and now I had to unplug it because the car kept turning off and then I couldnt start it. Even when I switch it off, the red light stays burning and when I push the reset button, it does go off but then comes on again and the aerials are sitting just by the A pillar on the dash, would this be the wrong place? Please advise so I can take back to the Auto Electrician or does someone have a contact number of someone I can get in touch with. Cheers Hans Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_ethrty-Andy_ 2132 Report post Posted October 31, 2010 Might be cheaper to run but its your car man! It shouldn't be taken every few days =D i plan to make full use of the features, not just the GPS tracking ability on its own Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richiz 0 Report post Posted October 31, 2010 wont work with 2degree or Telecom, Vodafone only for these GPS trackers. Best option would be using Vodafone's Best Mate with your tracker's sim card. Call/text free for as much as you'd like meaning you can track it all the time just for fun. If your not near a computer, you can also use its GPRS/WAP function, to send you a real address instead of the usual GPS longitude and latitude co-ordinates that you'll need Google earth to find the street address. Texting Address+password will give you a real address text back to your phone, very cool feature, however it uses some internet data on the sim. (also, you can call the tracker and listen in on your car via the microphone on the tracker!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
