The TrackPort OBD GPS vehicle tracker is the easiest way to track a car or truck without worrying about battery life. The device is simply plugged into the vehicle’s OBD-II port, normally located under the driver’s side dash.
The tracking experience with the TrackPort 4 GPS vehicle tracker has gotten more intuitive and more mobile with new, exclusive apps for both Android and iPhone users. Check in on your vehicle's location from anywhere right from your smartphone.
More About Using the OBD-II Port
The OBD-II, or onboard diagnostics port, is normally located under the driver's side dash. This port has been standard on all vehicles sold in the United States since 1996. Plugging a device in here allows you to use your vehicle's existing port to supply uninterrupted power to the plug-in GPS tracker.
Switching cars? Unlike traditional hardwired tracking devices, this OBD plug-in GPS tracker can be easily moved from one vehicle to another with no tools and no effort. It's completely "plug and play."

Why use anything else
This is so easy. The car powers it through that weird plug every car has (called an OBD, I learned). My kid doesn't even know it's there ;)

The TrackPort is the easiest way to track a vehicle. Just plug the device into the OBD-II port. This port has been standard on all vehicles sold in the United States since 1996.
How does the tracker attach to the vehicle I’m tracking?
This tracker must be plugged into your vehicle’s OBD-II port, usually located on or near the dashboard.
How long will the battery last?
This device is not battery powered. It uses the power from your vehicle.

No, there is no additional fee for activation.
Can I see the tracking map on my cell phone? How do I track on a mobile device?
Yes, you can track the device using the BrickHouse Locate GPS app available for iOS and Android devices. You can download it for free. Click here.
What happens when my car turns off? Will the device stop tracking?
The TrackPort gets power from the battery of your vehicle. When the ignition is off, the device will not track. When the ignition is back on and, the vehicle starts to move, it will begin to track. Some vehicles will still provide power even when the ignition is powered off. In that case, the device will then report every 6 hours.
Where in the world does this GPS tracker work?
This device is for use in North America, including the United States, Canada, and Mexico. If you need to track a vehicle or asset outside of North America, please check our international GPS Trackers.

How much is the subscription fee?
The service plan starts at $17.99. The reduced price will depend on the billing frequency and the number of active units. Please check our Service Plan tab for more information.
What does the monthly fee cover?
Your subscription cost includes both the cellular data service and also the cloud software required for you to access your tracking data.
Why is cellular service needed for a GPS tracker?
While most GPS trackers use satellites to determine their location, they must use cellular service to report their location information back to the user. Learn more about how a GPS tracker communicates. For tracking in rural areas without cellular coverage, we recommend exploring our selection of Satellite GPS trackers.
Do I need to use a SIM card or sign up for service with a cell phone company?
Everything that your device needs to communicate is provided through your BrickHouse Security service plan.
Can the device send text message alerts when movement is detected?
You can set up text or SMS alerts based on speed so you will get notified when the vehicle starts to move.
What types of alerts does this device send?
This device can send alerts via SMS/text message or email for speed over a preset limit or entering or exiting a zone or geofence. Find out more about using GPS Geofences.
