DIY Guide: How to Install a Car Tracker in Your Vehicle

Installing a GPS tracker in your car has become a wise investment due to rising fuel prices and growing security concerns. Vehicle security, driving behaviors, and fuel efficiency are all improved by a tracking system, like the one provided by the United Track System (UTS) and its myUTS App.

To guarantee correct setup and operation, if you’re thinking about installing an automobile tracker, adhere to this detailed advice.

Equipment & Supplies Required

Prior to starting, collect the following supplies:

  • A GPS tracking gadget that works with the United Track System and myUTS App
  • People who strip wire
  • An electrical tape
  • Phillips and flathead screwdrivers
  • Adhesive tape or zip ties
  • A wiring schematic for the vehicle (optional but useful)

Step 1: Select the Appropriate GPS Monitoring Device 

Make sure your trustworthy GPS tracker is compatible with the UTS Tracker. This will enable remote immobilization, geofencing, speed alerts, and real-time tracking.

Step 2: Choose the Best Site for Installation

The GPS tracker should be placed in a spot that is both unobtrusive and easily accessible for best results. Typical locations consist of:

  • Under the dashboard
  • The glove compartments interior
  • Under the back seats
  • Within the engine bay (for trackers that are hardwired)

Keep the tracker away from metal objects that can disrupt the GPS signal.

Step 3: Attach the GPS device to the power supply.

The majority of GPS trackers need to be powered by the car’s battery. Take these actions:

  1. Turn off the vehicle: Make sure the car is off to avoid electrical risks.
  2. Find the fuse box or car battery: Locate a 12V power supply, which is often located in the fuse box.
  3. Wire the tracker: Attach the black wire (ground) to the metal body of the car and the red wire (power) to a steady 12V power supply.
  4. Secure the Wiring: To keep the wires tidy and guard against breakage, use adhesive tape or zip ties.

Just place the OBD-II plug-in tracker into the OBD-II port, which is often located under the dashboard.

Step 4: Position and Secure the GPS Antenna

If your GPS tracker has an external antenna, orient it so that it can see the sky clearly, like this:

  • By the windshield
  • Near a vent beneath the dashboard
  • On the vehicle’s back deck

The antenna can be fastened in position with zip ties or adhesive tape.

Step 5: Test the GPS Tracker

Test the tracker before completing the installation:

  1. Turn on the car: Make sure the tracker is powered on.
  2. Examine the myUTS App: Sign in to the myUTS App and confirm geofencing, speed monitoring, and real-time tracking.
  3. Take a Test Drive: To ensure precise location updates, drive a short distance.

Step 6: Complete the Installation

After everything is operating as it should:

  • For a neater configuration, cover any exposed cables.
  • To stop the tracker from moving, firmly secure it.
  • Replace any coverings or panels that were taken out during installation.
