I tried posting this answer three times just now so hopefully it goes through this time I would check under the dash on the driver side of behind the fuse box and steering column area for a spliced in relay that is probably wired to a small black box it would probably be a starter disabling GPS for the tracker I'll try and send a pic of one I just found in one of my customers trucks, in the past few days
