FMB001

Teltonika FMB001 — Plug and Play OBD-II GPS Tracker with Vehicle Diagnostics

The Teltonika FMB001 is the simplest way to add professional GPS tracking to any vehicle. Unlike wired trackers, the FMB001 plugs directly into the vehicle's standard OBD-II port — no installation engineer needed, no wiring, no drilling. Once plugged in, it instantly starts tracking location and reading live vehicle data directly from the onboard computer, including fuel level, engine RPM, mileage, fault codes and more.

As an official Teltonika distributor in the UK, Tracking Hardware UK ships the FMB001 directly from our London warehouse — with trade pricing available for telematics service providers, fleet operators and resellers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the FMB001 work with all vehicles?

The FMB001 works with any vehicle that has a standard OBD-II port, which is mandatory on all petrol cars sold in the EU and UK after 2001 and diesel cars after 2004. It is not compatible with vehicles using a non-standard OBD-II port or pre-OBD-II vehicles.

What vehicle data can the FMB001 read?

The FMB001 reads a wide range of OBD-II parameters including fuel level, engine RPM, odometer reading, coolant temperature, battery voltage and diagnostic fault codes. The exact data available depends on what your vehicle's onboard computer supports.

Does the FMB001 need a SIM card?

Yes — the FMB001 requires a standard micro SIM card to transmit data over the GSM network. It is not supplied with a SIM card. Contact us if you need SIM card recommendations for UK deployments.

How is the FMB001 different from a wired tracker like the FMB920?

The FMB001 plugs into the OBD-II port with no wiring — making it faster and cheaper to deploy. However, a wired tracker like the FMB920 is harder to remove or detect, making it more suitable for stolen vehicle recovery or covert tracking. The FMB001 is ideal where quick installation and OBD data reading are the priority.

Can I buy the FMB001 in bulk from Tracking Hardware UK?

Yes — we supply telematics service providers, fleet operators and resellers across the UK and internationally. Volume pricing and trade accounts are available. Contact us for a bulk quote.

Is the FMB001 compatible with a Bluetooth driver identification keypad?

Yes — the FMB001 supports Bluetooth 4.0 and is compatible with Teltonika's BLE driver identification keypads. Drivers simply enter their PIN or present their card on the keypad at the start of each trip, and the driver ID is logged alongside all journey and OBD-II data. This makes the FMB001 a strong choice for fleets that need driver accountability without the complexity of wired iButton systems.
