To discover the car all lemur SafeDriver plug in, on-board diagnostics port (OBD II) in the United States and Canada, from the engine control module (ECM) accessing data sold since 1996. Of the two configurations: monitor to display the key holder of OBD II ports and wireless plug.

Installation
To give a lemur SafeDriver wireless vehicle monitor real-world tests, I my friend Keith and his son Shawn is participating high school seniors. We Shawn drive including his daily on a regular basis, attending school, family of 2006 Kia Sedona install the monitor in the minivan.
But to cut packaging proved the most difficult part of the installation — scissors must be only installation tools. Connecting the sensors installed in OBD II port driver-side dash after the only.
Indicates that the sensor is connected and synchronized display of the Green LED Keychain is ready. This is accomplished by entering the default PIN (0000)! To change the PIN after you set the monitor, of course, the ?????. Starts the single vehicle PIN is entered correctly and displayed in "PASS" key ring sensor green LED is blinking, indicating the communication that ECM vehicles and to wait for a start.
The last step is to view, use the PIN reset to zero. Package takes 5 minutes to set the SafeDriver advertises. Even though I took chatting, just 3 minutes by Keith and throughout the process. In Sean's key ring was drive monitor to use for several days is ready deployment key ring and he.
On the road
Sean, he is a safe driver, referred to by using their cell phones behind the wheel will never always wearing his seat belt. You can be any teens know that monitor is a good deterrent.
Deleted to prevent an invalid key fob screen "tampering" PIN is entered to turn off the monitor, battery, is, or appears if you have been removed from the sensor OBD II port. Vehicle is not in the vehicle engine, then refreshed LCD key chain-driven if continues to collect sensor operation data, key chains. Therefore, leaving the key ring at home, not banned from SafeDriver monitoring.
Also tested the system key ring, center console to sow worked deployment. You can drive a key ring screen refresh, or press the Center, but reset the every 30 seconds for immediate updates button.
4 Days later, two student, Keith driving weekend errand and I we to verify that what you learn in the keychain checks. Attempted to bypass monitoring not you knew, so in the LCD was showing "tampering".
Total 4, Sean 96 miles, spanning the read from the factory of vehicle travel mileage between was driven. He knew Keith is 70 mph speed limits, 73 miles during a State of near had a maximum speed is reached. I have raised this flag if you attend school came with Sean driving only.
I reported "brakes" SafeDriver downloads of any hard disk brake indicator which would trigger that must be. So I, van, was to test a large empty, parking. Is must to trigger it knew that I started to verify that was working brake indicator test: was I ago I pull someone it's like suddenly brakes in the 35 miles per hour stomped. To update it and key holders as expected the one "brakes" showed.
Simulate the I also various braking situations. Do not run the yellow light quickly hard braking, indicators, such as stopping every time triggers. The red light was brake control, such as slowing down the. In situations I felt able to trigger the indicator 5 times, and was guaranteed.
Why hope
Passed the drive fear strikes most to look at the car key experience inexperienced teens and their parents in the distance. Channels of communication open safely somewhat improve behavior after the teenager, wheel methods can provide peace of mind has limited data reported by the lemur SafeDriver driving economically.
Other study: continuous loud beep by speed of more than 70 miles, output wireless key view maximum speed of the program has not or AlertDriver lemur (49... $ 95).
