The Omnitracs/Thermo king tech says there is an egregious internal fault in the black box and is swapping it out with a Reman unit. Still don’t know what it’s going to cost but there is a Freddies steak burger down the street to eat at afterwards so could be worse.
Midwest Trucker and Farmerbob1 Thank this. -
So why dont you go to an app based ELD if thats what you want?
Its what my co runs with most issues being driver error. I have it on my phone and my tablet, both have mounts in the truck and work well. -
I am glad I can still use the old tried and true, loose leaf eld. Man that just looks like a pain.

I just had a great idea. Serialized paper logs that you buy like checks. They'll know if they're legit and if ones missing they'll be able to figure it out right quick. That way y'all can stay on paper logs as long as you want.

Because the only reason anyone would use the overpriced Omnitracs stuff. It's required by the company he's leased on to.Midnightrider909 Thanks this.

Must have Omnitracs for DOD loads

The tech at Thermo king fixed it by replacing the box and they didn’t charge me anything but they might send the bill to my carrier. I’ll find out later if there is a bill. Crossing my fingers.

Heck, I have my own logs and inspection forms printed, just have them print duplicates. lol There is always more than one way to skin a cat. lol
The signs on my truck even flip, I can go north under one set of numbers and come back under another. lol
