Important: Only use Geotab telematics devices with Geotab-approved harnesses acquired from Geotab-authorized channels. Use of non-Geotab harnesses from unauthorized channels may cause serious safety risks, including fire, and may lead to serious personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle. |
This document identifies all the harnesses available in MyAdmin, and the harnesses available by special order. This document also provides an overview of each harness:
In June 2014, we updated the harness naming convention. This section outlines the new naming convention and provides definitions for each character or group of characters.
Harnesses all start with HRN prefix followed by 6-character names, as defined below. All characters are alphanumeric and, to avoid confusion, no I’s or O’s are used.
Examples:
The following table helps to identify the harnesses.
Category | Family | Connections | Type | Length | Sub-Type | ||||||
Defined broad category of harnesses (Deutsch, OBDII, European, custom, etc.) | Defines family of harnesses which can be common, manufacturer specific, proprietary, etc. | Number of pins used or specific connections connecting up to an asset | Harness Type (i.e. straight, split, etc.) | Length of harness between the vehicle connector and GO device | Harness Sub-Type for different variants of the same harness | ||||||

Note: If a longer length is required to facilitate installation, connect a straight harness to a T-harness or another straight harness — where indicated below. The total harness length must not exceed 2 meters (or 6.5 feet). |
Note: Regardless of the length, two T-harnesses CANNOT connect to each other. Connecting two T-harnesses, or any two harnesses that exceed 2 meters, compromises the integrity of the data and may cause issues with the vehicle’s Engine Control |
