What's In The Box?
Your personalized Argos kit provides the tools to help you start improving your fleet management strategy through connected data. Review the components below before beginning installation.
GO9 Telematics Device

The Geotab GO9 is your primary telematics device. It plugs directly into your vehicle's OBD-II or ECM port using the included harness.

Harness SKUs included will vary by vehicle type. Review the labels on your harness packaging to identify which you received.

Vehicle Harness Varies by Vehicle

Depending on your vehicle type, you will have received one of the following harness types:

  • 9-pin harness (HRN-GS09K2-A) — heavy-duty commercial vehicles
  • 14-pin RP 1226 harness (HRN-CS14S21) — newer HD trucks
  • 16-pin Y harness (HRN-GS16K22) — light-duty / passenger vehicles
GO Focus Plus Dash Camera If Applicable

The GO Focus Plus is a plug-and-play dash camera that connects directly to the IOX port on the side of your GO9 device using the supplied cable.

Checking Connectivity — LED Light Guide

After installation, monitor the LED lights on your GO device to confirm successful connection:

All 3 lights solid Device is fully connected and communicating — installation successful.
Lights flashing Device is still connecting. Wait a few minutes with ignition on before troubleshooting.
One light on, others flashing Device may be updating firmware. Allow 10–15 minutes with ignition on.
No lights Verify power is coming to the vehicle port. Check fuses or test in another vehicle.
Connectivity Troubleshooting Steps
1
Confirm device is added to your database

Verify the GO device has been properly added to your MyGeotab database on the Assets Page.

2
Check for device faults

Check the Faults page under the Maintenance tab. Use the Sources filter to select Telematics Device.

3
Verify cellular coverage

Ensure the vehicle is in an area with good cellular coverage and the ignition is powered on.

4
No lights / power issues
  • Verify power is coming to the vehicle port — check fuses
  • Test device in another vehicle if necessary
  • Verify power from the harness; try a different harness if no power
  • Check for physical damage to the device or harness
5
No green light

Remove and reinsert the device. Once reinstalled, the device needs to download the latest firmware — allow approximately 10–15 minutes with ignition on.
