Symptom
- Odometer readings for American Mandate are not matching
Resolution
- Check that the ELD is correctly linked to the engine's ECM. The vehicle distance information can be acquired from the engine's ECM as specified in provision 4.2 of this Standard:
- The ELD must monitor the engine's ECM’s odometer message broadcast and use it to record total vehicle distance information; and
- The ELD must use the odometer message to determine accumulated vehicle distance since the engine’s last power on the instance.
| Note: You can also refer to pages 7-8 of the document from FMCSA confirming that the ELD should always use the ECM reading rather than the dashboard. |
