    I have a 2015 389 and the company has me on the Peoplenet. It has locked up and apparently it's because of a fuse. Although I have no idea which fuse it is

    Not sure I believe the story.

    It can't be that hard to find the fuse for it.
    Step One Find/Open Fuse Box.
    Step Two..Well I think you get it.
    Not sure how anybody would know which fuse it is exactly.

    Sometimes they have multiple power sources/fuses though.


    When I was with Swift I sometimes pulled the Fuse, so the Q/C wouldn't record idle time.
    And for other reasons. :D

    I've had 3 trucks with PeopleNet in them. In all three, there were 2 fuses and they were in-line fuses. All located close to the fuse panel. Just start following wires from your screen. Yours could be different, but worth the look.

    I found it. I guess it pops out every so often. Once I replaced it the Peoplenet said that I had been off duty for 38hrs. Fine by me. Lol

    it must be a fuse feeding your on board computer then otherwise having your tablet off it still tracks your movements and flags your truck ... Had a few truckers try that can't blame them.
