notified by displaying a D sign and Malfunctions will be displayed using a M sign.

List of Malfunctions and Diagnostics
The standard in the following points refers to the Technical Standard for Electronic Logging Devices
v.1.2, October 27, 2020.
1. Power Compliance
 An ELD must set a power compliance malfunction if the power data diagnostics event described
in provision 4.6.1.1(a) of the Standard indicates an aggregated driving time understatement of 30
minutes or more on the ELD over a 24-hour period across all driver profiles, including the
unidentified driver profile.
2. Engine Synchronization
 An ELD must set an engine synchronization compliance malfunction if connectivity to any of the
required data sources specified in provision 4.3.1 of the Standard is lost for more than 30 minutes
during a 24-hour period aggregated across all driver profiles, including the unidentified driver
profile.
3. Timing Compliance
 The ELD must periodically cross-check its compliance with the requirement specified in provision
4.3.1.5 of the Standard with respect to an accurate external UTC source and must record a timing
compliance malfunction when it can no longer meet the underlying compliance requirement.
4. Positioning Compliance
 An ELD must monitor elapsed time during periods when the ELD fails to acquire a valid position
measurement within 8 kilometers of the CMVs movement. When such elapsed time exceeds a
cumulative 60 minutes over a 24-hour period, the ELD must set and record a positioning
compliance malfunction.
5. Data Recording Compliance
 An ELD must monitor the completeness of the ELD event record information in relation to the
required data elements for each event type and must record a missing data elements data
diagnostics event for the driver if any required field is missing at the time of recording.
6. Monitoring Records Recorded under the Unidentified Driver Profile
 If more than 30 minutes of driving in a 24-hour period show unidentified driver on the ELD, the
ELD must detect and record an unidentified driving records data diagnostic event and the data
21

diagnostic indicator must be turned on for all drivers authenticated into that ELD for the current
day and the following 14 days.

7. Data Transfer Compliance
 If the monitoring mechanism fails to confirm proper in-service operation of the data transfer
mechanism(s), an ELD must record a data transfer data diagnostic event and enter an
unconfirmed data transfer mode.

In case of a malfunction
A Driver must do the following:
(1) Contact FleetHunt ELD support at 204-818-2353 or [email protected] for troubleshooting the issue.
(2) Note the malfunction of the ELD and provide written notice of the malfunction to the motor carrier
within 24 hours.
(3) If the ELD records are not retrievable from the ELD, reconstruct the record of duty status for the current
24-hour period and the previous 7 consecutive days.
(4) Manually prepare a record of duty status until the ELD is serviced and no longer malfunctioning.

The Motor Carrier should do the following:
If a motor carrier receives or discovers information concerning the malfunction of an ELD, the motor carrier
must take actions to correct the malfunction of the ELD within 8 days of discovery of the condition or a
drivers notification to the motor carrier, whichever occurs first.

The ELD provider, i.e., FleetHunt should do the following:

Send a new ELD device upon notification from the carrier.
