This is by far the best and most detailed review I’ve seen of anything in a while. I’ll be buying this thanks to you! And you’ve earned a subscriber! Keep it up !
Been looking at this tracker for a while.
Already have a tracker but doesn't immobilise the car only gives Google map reference so will be getting this tracker TK103 car theft and jacking is getting prevalent in my area.
Nice to be able to stop the car in its tracks or use the tracker as a demobilizer at night
This device operates on 12 volts. Now with that said most electronic will reduce the power in to a lower power to work with the internal electronics. I would imagine that the lowest voltage you could use is 9 volt, but this is just a guess and I have no experience in operating a unit like this at less that 12 volts. -John
hi big guy thanks for this video i just have 1? im still confused about the sim card where do i get a sim card if i buy this unit from amazon?
Normally you will notice that Amazon will pair up these things with a Sim card that you can order at the same time. Mine was from H2O. I decided to go with some one else but the cards on Amazon were like a penny each. Here is a link to the one that should fit your unit. amzn.to/29KVwv3 Just be sure to order the standard SIM card as the Micro will not fit.
wow that was fast thanks 4 the fast response my Silverado was stolen about a month ago and my neighbor believe it or not saw it today at a gas station we call the cops and the guy was arrested so I got the truck back so I'm interested in getting a GPS for it as soon as possible so thanks again for your fast response u where a great help
You were lucky. I happen to be up and getting ready to leave for Boston. Any later and it would have been a two day wait. Happy to see you got your truck back. Things like that don't happen often. These tracker are really good for the price. The smaller ones sometimes don't have the signal strength to be able to use the cell tower to get a signal out. Good Luck and let me know how things go. -John
DC-DC buck (boost) converters can be picked up on ebay for a $1 so you can go up from 6v-12v or down from 24v-12v www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_sop=15&_nkw=dc-dc+boost+converter&rt=nc&LH_BIN=1
Great video, the only problem that I found was the monthly charge that it will cost me to run this unit per month is $30!!.. from AT&T buying a prepaid GSM Card... this is to much, is there a cheaper way to run this per month
Try H2O they maybe able to offer you a better rate...Remember to only get TEXT. do not buy and voice mail, or data. Anything other than text is useless. -John
Walmart Tracfone prepay card $5 text only (1000 texts)
Big Guy Review don’t you have to call it to set it up though?
I just hooked up the unit, IT is GREAT!!! It can do a lot of stuff... plus it does not require data. I was able to do everything except get my card balance (prepaid SIM) can you help? Thanks.
how do you go about wiring it up to a door acuator in a 96-00 civic that is manual ? given that there are aftermarket ones in place but not wires up?
Whats up. Can you tell me if my cell phone is the main administrator....and I gave 1 or 2 other people authority also....can they also operate my GPS system just like me. Or can I just have their phones able to receive a HELP message? Or would they also be able to track me wherever I went...?
Hi sir
I have problem with my tk103b device.
When I set admin number the device will be blocked and it will never send SMS.
Hello Mr John. That was quite impressive and sound. But can u help me identify which cables goes the the steady power and which goes to the ignition. Hence I only need the stop and resume feature.its a bit confusing
Can be a little confusing with all those wire. Check this video out, it may help better. ruclips.net/video/qK5Kp5VYJXo/видео.html&lc=z13vsfipepauhv2wr04cdhgoksaxuhejw0c
Hi...I bought a TK103, send the GPRS + Password command, but check with check + password GPR OFF command appears, the SIMCard is enabled, it has balance. What else can I take to the GPRS can be activated.
hi, can it alarm you about moving the vehicle by calling your phone , not just sms ?
No these unit only send text messages. Now there is some that come with an alarm that can be installed. lie the TK103 (B) If you need more info here are the complete instructions. www.gpstracker7.com/upfile/download/2013012215365663631.pdf
Which cellular carrier did you use? I have T-Mobile and can't get it to work.
To activate the mobile and gps tracker connection bu calling 10 times, is it the same with tk103a and tk103b also?
Hello BGR.
I hope you're well.
I contact you because I have a problem with my GPS tracker TK103B.
Indeed, I want to install the alarm system and the door locks by the remote control that has been provided. Despite the instructions that were provided, I do not know where and how to make the different connections to this effect.
Can you please, help me in this way?
Thank you in advance.
I am very confused about PDU MODE or TEXT MODE sms ? could you please explain how can i find if my provider support text mode ?
is it possible to trigger door lock or unlock with tracker remote or we need to carry two remotes
Hi Big guy,
I connected the white thin wire coming out of the relay to the POSITIVE of Battery , and to test it out i took a small 12v bulb just like you - connected one end to the NEGATIVE and the other to RED wire coming out from the relay but it doesn't glow... please advise...
Thanks.
OK Looking at the relay. The "White" wire goes to battery +12 volt. The "Yellow" wire goes to the item being powered. (Such as the fuel pump.) The "Red" wire goes to the Battery (FUSED) +12 volt. The "Black" wire should go to the connector that is attached to the GPS unit.
The white wire you see in the video attached to the led light id just a patch wire. I used it because it was smaller and could easily be attached to the light. I hope this clears up any misunderstanding. Best of luck -John
Hi sir can i know the lower volt this device can operate, i want install it at my R/C quadcopter.. and it have internal bettery? can last how many hour?
The SainSpeed website show a remote controller, like a car door remote.
What is the function of the remote ?. I assume ON/OFF & SOS.
Any others ?.
Ya I have the remote too. It basically is used like a car alarm key fob. but it also incorporates the S.O.S. function. So if you are in troubles and not in the car but close to it you can also call out for a SOS.
can I shut off the engine using this device?
Great Review.
1 Question though: I bought this same unit for both my vehicles. However, tracking via mobile phone works excellent. BUT the arming/disarming isn't working from the remote. I arm with the remote and open the car door to see if I get any texts stating car door is opened. After a while I still get no texts stating if any door was opened. What can you assume to be the problem? Is their any way to configure the remote,etc?
+stevenrajh To be honest with you I never used the remotes. Is it possible that there is a time that needs to pass before you open the door. Something like arming your home. Normally it won't arm for like 1 min. after. Have you looked at the instruction posted online? Here is a link to them. www.gpstracker7.com/upfile/download/2013012215365663631.pdf
beware man!!!!! theres a warewolf behind you!!
ya I could have done better.
Hey John, Thanks for the explanation video! I'm considering the same unit. Does it function as an alarm as well? Can it be set to send a text if it senses vibration or can it accept input from a proximity sensor? I'm installing it in a motorcycle, so the ability to know someone is tampering with the bike is critical, even if it doesn't actually move (and change coordinates).
+Stefan Giudici You cab do alot with these units. It is dual purpose gadget. Yes you can hook just about anything up to the unit that sends out a voltage when triggered. Like dome light, shock sensor, battery disconnect relay, The only limits are your knowledge of 12 volts and your imagination. -John
Necesito saber el consumo em megas que tiene un gps al mes reportando su ubicacion cada minutos?????
Thank you for the video Big Guy. I have a few questions as I am considering to purchase this unit. What sim card providers do you recommend? Would a pay as you go (cheapest plan $10~) be sufficient? Would the cheapest plan last the 3 month period? Does the sim card require data or only calls and text? Is the data only required for the GPS function? How accurate would you consider it to be? Sorry if I asked some noob questions. I am simply trying to get a car tracking device that will be accurate and cheap with cost at the same time. I await on your response,thanks.
These trackers are very accurate when using GPS, the GSM is a little less. A "pay-as-u-go" SIM is the best and cheapest way to go (thats what I did). Finally you only need the regular sim card. these GPS units DO NOT use data. everything is done with text messages. Buy a sim card from a national carrier like Verizon, AT&T, Sprint. In Canada you can use Rogers, Bell, and Telus. In Europe try Vodafone, AMC, or Eagle Mobile. This will give you better coverage. Thanks for your question it will indeed help others with the same interest. Please Subscribe.
Big Guy Review
Thanks for the fast reply. I am in the US. I have done a bit more of research and have noticed that people here in the US are using H2o or At&t pay as you go. So the unit will use the GSM signal from my service provider (att,H2o,etc) and the GPS signal is automatically picked up by the tracker its self (when available)? Does the tracker require 2G/3G/4G?
No "G" these trackers do not require a data sim card. The tracker will use it's GPS antenna to track with and send you via a text message the coordinates. You then can use your phone's maps (what i use and does not require internet) to see where the coordinates are. If for some reason the tracker can not get a GPS signal it will use land based antenna to triangulate itself . This is why the tracking is a little off. But still damn good. Here is a link to Amazon for the sim cards www.amazon.com/gp/search/ref=as_li_qf_sp_sr_il_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&index=aps&keywords=h2o%20sim%20card&linkCode=as2&tag=bigure05-20&linkId=BV7XRJ2K25R3OY4D
Oh and it is a regular sim card and NOT a nano. FYI!
Nice review.. Have you checked its accuracy? I mean is it an actual gps tracker or does it rely only on the gsm signal?
OH good question. The GPS is excellent! If you were to stand where the icon show on the map you would either be standing on the truck or beside it. GSM well thats a little different. Since it depends on the antennas and the signal strength from the unit the final area will be larger. I would say maybe about 50 / 100 feet. I didn't get a chance to test that but everything else worked fine. Wait just a sec. I just remembered.. I brought the truck in for an battery change and when they disconnected the battery the frigg'n tracker kept sending me texts.. (damn it took them an hour to change that battery) And it was a GSM location and it was accurate. The icon on the map was dead on but the shaded circle around the icon was larger than with the GPS. When there is no GPS it all depends on signal strength. Hope this helps.
What a detailed answer, everything I wanted to know! Thanks mate!
If ya haven't subscribed give a mate hand and sign up.
hi, please, can you make a schematic to work on a table like you??..I want to test before install in my car. Thanks...
How do I obtain a phone number inexpensively/no monthly recurring fees ?? I just got an h2o prepaid sim card. When I go to their site to energize and put some "pay as you go" money in the sim, it asks me for a phone number. From reading the questions / answers below from other users, my understanding is the phone number does not belong to the GPS locator but to the SIM card right? And do I have to go and buy a cheap phone from somewhere, for prepaid cards in order to get a phone number?? How do I obtain a phone number to associate with the prepaid sim in an inexpensive way so I'm not stuck with monthly fees besides having to reload $ to my pay as you go SIM card? Thanks for your time great video by the way!
+Yiannis Anagnostou There are numbers on the unit that you will need to input to the service providers web site. The are electronic signatures that are unique to that unit. all cell phones have them. Yes the phone number belongs to the sim card, but it will only work with the equipment it has been registered to such as your tracker. The tracker in essence is a cell phone. I found that buying a yearly plan is cheapest. Remember that you do NOT want any data plan. This is only for texting and nothing else, Voice can be used but not necessary since it is only a one way deal with these tracker. Let me know if this helped you out if not let me know and i will go into more detail.
+Big Guy Review So far, I called the h2o company's phone number and I told them that I have a sim card I need to validate and get a new phone number with it so I can use it in one of my phones. They didn't ask me what phone etc. They asked me what prefix phone number I like, I told them 770 and they gave me a 770 number (no charge). I put $10 on the sim, and they told me when I insert it in my phone, since I didn't activate it online (the web site link did not work so I had to call them), the 1st time I need to recharge it on the website, they site will automatically call my phone 1st to "validate" my identity and that it's me so the charge will go the the correct phone number, and after that, I can recharge it by the retained info. (Then, I plan to take the sim out and insert it to the gps). You don't think this would work? I do see a serial number on the gps tracker like yours on the side, shall I need to input it at some point? I will be happy to come back and update later if you like or let me know if you have any inputs. Thanks alot!
normally there is a ESN electronic serial number that should be on the unit. If it isn't there you might be able to get it from inside the unit. You would have to connect to a computer if you can. I really can't remember if it has a mini or micro USB port. but this would allow you access to the unit's info. The reason the service provider is going to call you is so that they can grab the info from the phone during the call. My guess is that they will input all this info themselves. When that is done and you pull out the SIM card and place it into the tracker it won't transmit the same ESN and the service provider will not allow the unit access to the service. Look for the link to the full operating and set up instructions. I have left a link in the description of one of the videos I have made for this tracker.
+Big Guy Review Thanks John! They didn't call, they just sent me a text the the phone number I sent them for "authentication" purposes to make sure a vandal/scammer didn't take over/ security breach. I do understand what you are saying though, it usually never what it seems in the surface. These units are set by default to pull the esn number etc in the setup by default automatically, but it can also be input manually. I checked the info from my phone when I put the sim in, it pulls the info from that gadget automatically. I don't think the SIM / "pay as you go" provider cares what phone I put it in. I put it in another phone, and it worked. Then, I put it in the GPS locator, and it worked seamlessly. It gave location and responded to the commands. The SOS button is also convenient and I like it. I am trying to learn now if the GPRS mode is useful to set up, (APN setup) etc, I'm not clear if they are just needed when I decide to access the info / gps location info from a computer or not, and if for that there is going to be a monthly fee or not, so far, all I need is to get the texts and alarms to my iphone and that's good enough for me. Thanks again for the great clear video you made!! let me know at any time if you need any inputs. I'm setting my system up to protect an enclosed trailer with tools etc, top off the 12V battery (mower battery) with solar charger, and I'm looking now into combining this gps location with an alarm system (that does not text), to possibly connect it so when the alarm/security system is supposed to go off, to trip the gps locator's alarm function so I will get a text if a breach occurs.
Sounds great. So glad you have everything working. Best of Luck -John
hey. good nigth. i have exactly de same alarm and i wanna know if you know if it can be configured to sound the siren if this detcts motion
you can buy a separate module a hook it up to a door sensor.
Hi there, i have a Tk103B, and everythings works fine except for kill engine option, when i send stop+password message i got not answer back, what do you think could be the problem?

my tk103 wil not text back 2 me any more when i 1st put it in it worked very good but i went on holiday for 6weeks .
i change the battery and it dont work
help me if u can
+Kanak Hirani First check to see that the unit is getting power. Does the LEDs on the unit light up. Is the fuse good? You might want to try a reset. Here is a link to the complete instructions for these units it might help you out further. www.gpstracker7.com/upfile/download/2013012215365663631.pdf hope this helps ya out. -John
John, question regarding the sim card and data plan. I purchased a $10 sim card from H2OWireless (you may or may not have heard of it). They offer several plans ranging from 4.5GB data to as little as 500MB and then some simpler talk/text plans. The dude at BestBuy says Ill probably need at least 3GB/mo. Is that accurate? Or can I do with one of the simpler and chearper talk/text plans? Appreciate your help, thanks!
JohnPaul Vargas h20 wireless no longer will work on these (at&t cut off their 2g services which this unit uses) , use tmobile
Not sure how to ask this Q but when you say "A "pay-as-u-go" SIM is the best and cheapest way to go" what exactly does that mean? None of the cell phone companies where I live will bother with a SIM card unless they're installing it in a new phone purchased from them. I asked. So, exactly how do you get the SIM card activated, and how does it work with the unit since it isn't a cell phone? Thanks!
Well lancer525 it depends on where you live. If you live in Canada get a rogers sim card. If you live in the U.S.A. you have a large assortment of carriers to choose from. You can try H2o. Remember that all you need is a regular sized Sim card and NOT the Mini or nano. The other thing is to get the regular Sim card and NOT one for data. Just tell them it is for a older flip phone you have. If they ask you who was your carrier. just tell them you got it from a friend and the phone is unlocked. when choosing a plan all you need is a text plan. the tracking device is virtually a cell phone with a GPS unit in it. Hope this helps.
I'll see if this helps. I went to a Verizon, a T-Mobile, and a Sprint store, and all three of them told me it was "against company policy" to sell "just a SIM card" without installing it in a phone, and "did I want to look at the new iPhone or perhaps a Galaxy S5?" Personally, based on what you just said, it seems more like they're trying to pad their commission rather than trying to sell me what I want. Thanks, Big John!
Hey no problem. You can also go online and order these from amazon. when and if you get a SIM card you can activate it yourself online. Can be a pain but you can do it. All the info is on the metal cover of the tracker unit. like your ESN number
If you really are having a problem I have a couple of H2o sim cards. I can mail you one to help ya out... go to my "About" page and get my email and send me your address and i'll send it off.
Thanks John, that means a lot! I think I'll give Amazon a try first, and see how that goes. One other question. How long are the cables for the GSM and GPS antennae?
i have GPS KT103 but don't work in server what do to active this device in server
Best video explanation thanks
Can this be used to connect to motorcycle wiring system? Or it just can be used for the car

Hello
I purchased this tracker, but I lost the cd which contains the software, How can I get it, if is there a possiblity to find it online?, I appreciate your help.
Thank you
Hilson Hi Hilson; I wouldn't worry about the CD. You only need it to install a program that links up to another program or internet site to allow you to track in real time the movements of your vehicle. I found it to be a waste of time and money. You can just call the unit and it will tell you where it is, and Google maps will give ya a map picture of the area. If it is really important to you contact me on the "About" page and click on "Send Message" If You leave me your address I'll send you mine (if I can find it...lol) If all you need are the full instructions you can go to this link: www.gpstracker7.com/upfile/download/2013012215365663631.pdf Everything you need to know is right here. Thanks for your comment. I haven't checked but if you haven't Subscribed please do so. Every click helps mate....Cheers!
How does one get the data packs . I was looking last night and they sell packs of gprs or mms I can't remember .I did a search for the gprs packs and could find out how to buy them . Although I read about them . They are in a 2 - 2.5 g cellular signal . So it would seem that that sice the data is smaller and restricted to text and such that the packs would be cheaper than paying for a full fledged phone line . I know they use sim cards in a lot of devices such as kindle from amazon I took apart a clone of a kindle that was broken and it had a sim . . If you know of any resources or info . I would appreciate it . As well if I find out anything I will be sure to let you know . I think with a little searching There has to be something out there .
Oh dude you are way in over "*my*" head here.
Hello Big Guy,I am very interested in getting this unit for my growing rental car biz on Turo. Quick question.... Can I send a text message to unlock the car doors if I have it properly wired? Is that a feature of the unit? Looking at the wiring diagram there seems to be door trigger positive and negative.It would be great to be able to hide a key inside for customers and remotely open the door for them when they get to the car. I would unlock the door from my cell phone and the key would be waiting inside so they can take off.
You can. You will have to use the ignition kill wire. You would have to use another relay because the one provided will not work. Just send the command to kill the engine and instead of killing the engine it will unlock the doors. You will how ever have to send the opposite command right after to turn the power off to the relay as it will burn out the solenoids.
I kind of figured something like that using the kill command. But not the optimal way of doing the doors. Sending a command to end the kill would probably do the opposite and lock the car (thinking the relay will work one way then the other).Now I do see some similar units that have a GM looking remote along with all the wiring and additional parts and pieces. I wonder If that would do the job of unlocking the car?
The remote that comes with them is pretty useless. To send the resume engine command wouldn't lock the doors. You would only hook up the one wire to the unlock lead of the electric locks. Sending the second command would be to turn the relay off. I am not sure how long the GPS unit will keep the relay activated.
I have one since a couple of days. Works OK, only a few minutes after power-on the GPS goes into sleep mode. The only way I found to let it 'wake-up' is to send a resetxxxxxx command.
Is there any way I can tell the tracker to let the GPS stay active all the time ? Tried all the sleepxxxxxx and gpsxxxxxx combinations but the GPS still goes into sleep mode. So if I want an up-to-dat location of my stationairy object I first have to send a resetxxxxxx followed by a phonecall or smslinkxxxxxx ;(
+Leo Starrenburg not sure what is going on here. The only thing I can suggest is to go through the instruction linked here. These are full instructions and may help you out. www.gpstracker7.com/upfile/download/2013012215365663631.pdf
+Big Guy Review Thanks ! The instructions given in that manual don't match up with the ones in mine. It seems there are a good number of clones with a variety of software around and I am the 'lucky' owner of one. I'll give hooking up the ACC line to +12V a try today, maybe that will keep the GPS alive.
I would imagine that the ACC+ is there to tell the unit when the car is running and when it isn't. Funny how it sleeps though. I can only tell you that re-reading the instruction might help. No I don't think you are dumb. We are all guilty at misreading something because we are tired or stressed and trying to rush through something. Sometime re-reading when we have the time to focus allows us to see the error we have made. I wish you much luck. -John
what if you loose your admin phone and its and its the only phone connected?
+pnwtree You can press the "Reset" button on the unit. So all is good, but it is a good idea to have a second phone hooked up to the unit just incase you leave your phone in your vehicle and it gets stolen.....-John
Hey John, Question for you.
I've installed 3 of these trackers over the last couple years, all worked flawlessly. The last one with central locking took quite bit, but it works great.
Have you successfully bound a second remote to the tracker (if you have one)? I have an extra, and I seen a miss match of instruction referring to 7 or 5 sos clicks with a couple of horn clicks thrown in. All trying to initiate a learning mode for tracker. I've never been successful nor anybody else I can find. I'm wondering if you have.
Having a single remote is bloody liability..
surf4luke Ya the remote control. This is by far the tracker's biggest Boo! Boo! I found the remote more complicated to use and understand than the tracker and all that wire. I personally just stuck with the text control and left it at that. So sorry I could not be more help but as I am sure you are finding out the remote control was more of a selling point than a useful add-on.
Luke hey Big Guy... I need some help with my tracker please.
Everytime I start my car it sends me a message. How can I stop this?
Hey guys, I figured it out. So the issue was the tracker sending me a message everytime it started the car. So what I did to stop this was go to the petrol station and with an empty fuel tank. Send the nooil+password. Then I received the nooil OK message. Next I filled up the fuel tank and sent the oilfull+password. Then it sent oilfull OK. This fixed the issue with the messages so that is just my two cents big guy.
thanks Mate , very informative
Check the install. Very simple and quick. Thanks for the comment.
Hi
Good day.
Recently I have bought TK103B from eBay & have installed it in my car.
But there are two main problems that I cannot resolve.
The seller in eBay is of no help at all.
1) every 7 minutes, it beep once non-stop.
2) it gives out very bad radio interference to my FM radio
I would most appreciative if you could help me to resolve these problems.
Thank you & have a nice day.
+putianren When you say it lets out a "Beep" you mean to your phone or on the unit ? As far as the interference with your radio it may be too close to the radio or antenna. The other issue is that the unit may be sending interference through the 12 volt line. If it is connected to a power source that runs your radio or close to your radio this could also cause the interference. Try this link. It contains all the info you will need to operate your unit. www.gpstracker7.com/upfile/download/2013012215365663631.pdf
+Big Guy Review
Hi
Good day.
Thank you for your reply.
The beep actually comes from the new siren I connected to. I did not use the original siren.
It quite annoying especially in the night when beep every 7 minutes.
It look as though it is giving an indication of something not right.
I checked the user manual umpteen times, but not avail.
Next , Yes, as you said, the interference is really coming from the power supply. so I re route a new power supply wires direct from the battery.
But the interference is still there but slightly less unless it is kept faraway from all other wires in the car > simply means outside the car.
Yes, when the power wires are out side the car & route back to the car inside > no problem ( this was done for testing).
My two main primary functions are GPS tracking & immobilize which work very well.
I am thinking of removing the siren which will solve the "beep:" problem.
But the radio interference is still not solved.
What about installing inside the boot??
Anyway, thanks for your great help & anymore suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you & have nice day.
ps: could it be that I have a bad TK103B > defective??
You might have your GPS antennas too close to your radio or your radio's antenna. try moving them farther apart.
Hey Big Guy, I,ve just got one of those but I have a problem it keeps turning off my motorcycle by itself and I have to send the DY123456 so it can be reset but againg every 4 to 5 minutes keeps turning off my electric system, any ideas to help?? thanks
+Gerardo Silva here are the complete instruction for this unit. You may have a input a bad command. Try and reset the unit. This will bring everything back to factory fresh. here is the link to the instructions www.gpstracker7.com/upfile/download/2013012215365663631.pdf
I've try that already and it didnt work, i think they send me a fake or copy of the device cause those comads dont work with mine for example to turn off the engine insted of stop123456 i have to send DY123456 and for resume TY123456 I got this at amazon i dont know if this is normal
Mmm. Ya I don't have commands like that. And they sold it to you as a TK103?
+Big Guy Review yes and it looks the same and it has all the accesories but the diference this one doesnt have a turn on/off switch and it doesnt have the shock sensor port this one is chinese i think all of them are, right? im gonna try to contact the provider i dont know what else to do
Hey big guy I have a question for u.
I use gps tracker using Sms mode. Why my credit in the phone sim always deduct the money. I try many thing but the gps always deduct the money. When I add money in the sim I just can get 1 Sms from the gps car tracker and then The money will be 0.00 I hope u understand my question sory for bad grammar
+Jai Jon Ok first let me ask some questions
- What kind of cell plan do you have? These units just use texting and have no need for a data plan.
- Why do you use SMS? Most times the SMS is only used when the GPS can not find satellites.
Let me know...-John
+Big Guy Review is use postpaid. I don't use the link that we e can download n monitor the car online. I just call when I want to know where my car and than the gps will send me the coordinate. The problem I have now when I topup my credit to the sim card. My balance always be deducted. Example if I added money to the sim card at 5 dollar. I just get back Sms from the phone just one time. If I call. And then all my credit just gone like that. I have another gps tracker but not tk103b. The first version it don't be like the new one. The new one always deducted my money whether I use it or not
+Jai Jon This sounds like a problem with your service provider and not your GPS device.
if anyone one can help me, I have Tk103b GPS tracker but I dont know IP and Port or how I can obtain.. I can't track my car on Orange GPS Web site... thanks
Hello, thanks for the video, I need a unit that can unlock the vehicle via text message. Do you know if this is possible with this unit? Thanks
it sure is. you can use the kill function to send the nessacery signal to your door locks.
can you upload the manual pdf file again coz the link above is not working.
Thank you
Try here. not the same one but should be the same info. www.gpstracking.co.in/documents/tk103.pdf
Pls help me to reset my password. I forgot my password. TK103B.
Do you have to pay a monthly or yearly subscription , where can I get one in uk , & what's the cost, thanks.
I left a link in the description. The wireless subscription can be had from most cellphone carriers. A year of text can cost around 100 dollar or 60L
does yours come with the remote? wonder what those buttons are for
Actually it did. boy it has been awhile let me look it up.
Button Function Descriptions
(Padlock closed) ARM
Press for 0.5 second, the siren will beep one time.
(Padlock Open) DISARM
Press for 0.5 second, the siren will beep two times.
(Bell or speaker)ARM & Silent mode
Press for 0.5 second when it is in disarm state, the siren will
beep three times. No voice from siren when alarm triggered and quit from
siren mode automatically when disarm.
(lightning Bolt) SOS
Press for 3 seconds. This will send a SMS message to anyone you entered as manager.
Hope this helps. For more information you can click the link above and go to page 24. The full instruction about the Key Fob are there.
Sounds like you need a data connection with your phone company? Will it work without data?
+Garnet Albright These do NOT use data. These units use text only... -John
so how does the gps work?
it will send a longitude and latitude. on a smart phone it will include a link so you can click on it and go to a google map. The GPS units do not use any data.
So if they carjack you AND steal your phone, it's kinda useless ?
+Sloppy Joe The idea is that you would also have a friend or parent have access to the device in such a situation as you describe the other person would be able to send commands to the GPS.
+Big Guy Review plz f anyone one can help me, I have Tk103b GPS tracker but I dont know IP and Port or how I can obtain it's not encloded in manual.. I can't track my car on Orange GPS Web site... thanks
the best I can do is give you a link to the full instruction and you can try to find your answer there. It a PDF file and is good. www.gpstracker7.com/upfile/download/2013012215365663631.pdf
hey there, great review, im about to order this. i saw an on off switch for the backup battery. should this be on all the time or off?
vyraz I would leave it on. The battery won't last for ever and I am not sure if it is even replaceable. The whole idea of the back up battery is in the event the main power is cut, the unit will text you to say the battery is low/off...or something like that. It is good to leave it in the "on" position. Thanks for the question and for dropping by vyraz :-)
Big Guy Review ok cool. Btw have you ever tested how much battery it drains? I want to install this on my bike and it has a 9ah battery (I think) I doubt there would be a problem because I ride it everyday but would be good to know in case I have to leave it over a long weekend or something
I think I read that it can draw just under 1amp hour. Now with that said there is a sleep mode, and I am not sure if this reduces the power draw.
Big Guy Review hmm interesting.... Can't wait for mine to come
you will like it. these things are pretty damn cool. If you need help with the instal i did a quick video on that. Let me know how things go. -John
if you have not gps in our country can i used and stop the car
GPS is not a country thing. GPS is available worldwide at NO cost (Yes it is free) You just need equipment that can pick up the signal. The problem with these specific units is they use 2G and that system is mostly unavailable. Be sure to have a system that can work with 3G and up.
No clue about editing I've been good I've also been away from gaming for a little while
Great video
Thank you
Hey big guy! Hope you can help me, my tk103b light blue and red, whats the problem and how can I fix it? Can you please help me?
I looked through the instruction from the link above in the description. I didn't see anything in reference to the blue/red light. I do know that a green light is needed to confirm GPS lock. Try to reset the unit this might help.-John
How can I reset the equipment? I dont see any button
It should be at one of the ends. There might just be a small hole. A paperclip will do.
What does it means to arm the vehicle
Never used that.
Does it only work on 2g , . Will it operate correctly on 2018 4g or somthing else service
Not sure buddy
@@BigGuyReview so you're not still using it
@@DR-um2bv not since my Cellphone provider stop using 2G
How activate control ?
How can i contact you .we are from Anysun Inc .we have many products need review .
Hi big guy... Uhhh can this model tk103b be used, a mean does this have the frequency to be used in Jamaica, or anywhere in the world???
They can be. the GPS is world wide. The problem is that a lot of areas are now moving away from 2G. Most only offer 3G or higher. Check with the cell phone provider to be sure that they have a sim card that will work with the unit before you buy.
Thanks... But yeah, the provider here as 3g n higher, 4g specifically speaking... But becaz I wanted to install one in my car, I ask around n guy who install these n other things, said I should buy the tk103a but I'm seeing this model tk103b so I was wondering if this one could use also... Still he said the brand is not a problem, but it's the frequency... So that's why I ask
These run on 2G So if your carrier doesn't have 2G it won't work. Mine won't work any longer because the cell provider doesn't offer the 2G service.
So I guess then it would be useless buying it as it's now 3g n 4g moving on to 5g so... I'll have to look on other products then...
The one I have no longer works on the network here in Canada.
Hi sir !
This product can be working in Oman ( GCC ) countries ?
It can. The problem is that it will only work with a 2G service. most places have fazed that out and moved on to 4-6G now.
link to instructions does not work ..old link
ya sorry i don't have another link for you.
Question : how it works on the SIM card, needs Internet or line ?
+SAM i AM No internet. The GPS units works like a cell phone. The SIM card is so it can connect to a cellphone service provider.
+Big Guy Review ....thank you
+Big Guy Review ... But the service provider (SIM card ) needs data (Internet) right ?
No. It use cell service to receive texts and send texts only. It does not use Data.
+The Plow Guys .... Thanks a lot man
Hello, i have a problem, i connect the device but the led just keep in red. What could i do?
check the antenna connections and the placement of the antennas. they should be close to a open area so they can receive signals.
Thanks for your fast answerd. i have done it, but the red led just blink one time.
Shit I can't remember it has been a while. Is there a reset button on the thing? If so try pushing it in for ten seconds. do this while it is powered up. and see what happens.
where can I find the button? it's inside the case
I think it is a small pin hole. You will most likely need a paperclip to push it.
i had someone install this in my car and he told me to pay him 50u.s every year for the service. is that true?
willingston dwyer well that depends. does that include the service. do you have control of the unit? do you pay any money to cell phone service?
yes i have control of the unit but i still have to buy credit to put on the sim card
willingston dwyer then you shouldn't have to pay for anything else. you bought the unit, you pay for monthly sim card access. no need to pay for anything else.
you got it buddy. the sim card is the only thing that should cost you by the month. now with that said the installer may have you hooked up to a service apart from the sim card.
Hey
be better without the dog running about.

Hello, 👭🎉Bol7 Providing gprs car tracking services. 🙎🎊For more info U can check my website: Bol7 On google 👭🎉
my gps tracker gives my wrong position how can i fix this
+Know More I am not sure. Look to see if you can reset the unit. Also look to see if you are using GPS or GSM. The GPS uses the satelites and GSM uses the cell phone towers to triangulate you position. Let me know how it goes. -John
Hey John is your tracker still working great?
Yep works great! Had the van out at the garage last month for a battery change and the damn tracker kept telling that the power was disconnected. At the least I know how long they worked on my truck from the first text tot he last one..lol
can i instal it on a motorcycle like a 2013 gsxr 600?
These are not really meant for a motorcycle. The unit is not sealed against moisture or water. Also these units use a 2G wireless system. In North America you will need the minimum of a 3G.
Ok thx i'm from Curacao. I'm going to look for the info about 2G or 3G here on Curacao
They use a model like these on cars here. But i'm going to make some good info about it.
There is a lot of different models available. It is best to be sure the one you get can work with 3G and is water proof.
i was thinking to instal it in my airfilterbox. it is totaly seal of water.
And getting really close to 200
nice video!
hola haber si alguien me puede ayudar tengo un tracker 103b ya esta instalado todo correcto según el manual por que ellos varían por los colores de los cable pero todo esta bien que sucede tengo un problema envio el sms begin123456 y el sms que responde es un sms en blanco si llamo al gps solo llegan 2 signo de interogacion nunca me llega la ubicación solo sms en blanco alguien que me ayude
Su unidad puede estar defectuosa. Es posible que desee probar otra unidad. El otro problema podría ser que su proveedor celular ya no proporciona el servicio 2g para esta unidad. (Google translate)
is that unit waterproof?
Not at all
So your saying it only runs on 2g only n not 2g n up??? Ohk then big guy... Thanks
does this work in africa
Michael Enitan In theory it should. As long as you have Cellphone service you should be good to go. Since GPS is world wide that should not be a issue. Let me know how it goes. -John
sir i thinnk your dog was having a seizure. RIP to your dog. :'(
ARGHHH! That dog noise! Extremely distracting. It makes it so hard to focus on the video.
Your dog in the background (-: !!
Anyway, Nice review, Thank you
Thanks for the comment.

how do I check my sim card balance...
+Kevin Kassie who ever you got your SIM card from should be able to tell you that. You should be able to go online to check your balance. -John
Hi, BigGuyReview. Would it be possible/safe to connect this tracker to a car battery or a fusebox (using a piggyback fuse)?
Thanks in advance.
I don't see why not.
Big Guy Review thanks for the reply
Hello Big Guy , l wanted to ask about that unit lm not getting , does it only accept 2G lines ? aftr l purchase this unit do l need to subscribe to anyone else again ,coz l might need something like 200 units of those ?so l will only subscribe to my network provider to get sms back from that unit ?? is that so Sir ? or l have to subscribe to someone else to get the full service ? help me on that please Mr Big Guy
LOL Mr. Big Guy...I love it!.. Call me John. These old units only worked on 2G. A lot of network providers no longer offer 2G. The minimum you can get now is 3G and up. They only require a connection to your cellphone provider and that is it. The units send a text message to the owner with the GPS location. most phones will allow you to just click on the underlined text and it will bring you to google maps and show you exactly where the unit is. Hope this helps buddy.
thank you thank you man , so this unit is now useless coz 2G aahhhh its an old stuff
Thanx John :)
what about the VT900 RS232 4G 3G Vehicle GPS ,does it performs the same ?
That dog wants to eat that thing
deez nuts..go it
I hear your dogs
