•Standard 16-Pin T-Harness Kit — HRN-GS16K22
Installation Document
0 mins to read
•The HRN-GS16K22 harness kit is designed and intended for use only with the GO device or Geotab-authorized accessory devices. Intended for most light-duty and medium-duty vehicles — not intended for generic heavy-duty vehicle applications.
! IMPORTANT: The State of California currently prohibits installing HRN-GS16K22 in a manner that relocates the in-vehicle diagnostic connector as described in these instructions. See HRN-GS16K22 Installation - Direct Plug-In for guidance on installing this harness using a direct plugin installation method without relocating the data link connector. Alternatively, GO devices can be installed directly into the OBDII port using an extension/conversion harness that plugs directly into the OBDII port or other emissions diagnostic data link connector port. For more information on Geotab harnesses and adapters, see Harness Identification and Application.
! IMPORTANT: The HRN-GS16K22 harness is intended for most light-duty, medium-duty and some heavy-duty vehicles (outside North America). For North American heavy-duty trucks, always use a vehicle-specific harness when offered by Geotab or the vehicle manufacturer (see Harness Identification and Application and Harness Assessment Cheat Sheet Guide). Where a heavy-duty truck-specific harness is not offered by Geotab or the vehicle manufacturer, use the adapter harness (HRN-CG13S1) for any 16-pin (OBD-II) installation method to avoid possible GO device damage.
The HRN-GS16K22, an OBD-II 16-pin T-harness kit with 12 mounting brackets, connects a Geotab® GO device to most light-duty, medium-duty and some heavy-duty vehicles internationally. The HRN-GS16K22 contains the mounting adapters listed below and the adapter plastic is numbered for easy reference (see the Adapters section of this document for details):

Important Safety Information and Limitations of Use
For the latest version of the Limitations of Use, please visit: goo.gl/k6Fp0w
WARNING! Do not attempt to install, configure or remove any product from any vehicle while the vehicle is in motion or otherwise in operation. All installation, configuration or removal must be done only in stationary vehicles which are securely parked. Attempting to service units while being operated could result in malfunctions or accidents, leading to death or serious personal injury.
WARNING! All in-vehicle devices and related cabling must be securely fastened and kept clear of all vehicle controls, including gas, brake and clutch pedals. You must inspect devices and cabling on a regular basis to ensure all devices and cabling continue to be securely attached. Loose cabling or devices may impede the use of vehicle controls, resulting in unanticipated acceleration, braking or other loss of vehicle control, which could lead to death or serious personal injury. Improperly fastened in-vehicle devices may detach and impact operators upon sudden acceleration or deceleration, which may cause injury.
WARNING! If at any point after an in-vehicle device is installed a warning lights up on the vehicle dash or the vehicle stalls or has a marked drop in performance, shut off the engine, remove the device, and contact your reseller. Continuing to operate a vehicle with these symptoms can cause loss of vehicle control, and serious injury.
WARNING! Your in-vehicle devices must be kept clear of debris, water and other environmental contaminants. Failure to do so may result in units malfunctioning or short-circuiting that can lead to a fire hazard or vehicle damage or serious injury.
WARNING! Do not attempt to remove the devices from the vehicle in which they are originally installed for installation in another vehicle. Not all vehicles share compatibility, and doing so may result in unexpected interactions with your vehicle, including sudden loss of power or shutdown of the vehicle’s engine while in operation or cause your vehicle to operate poorly or erratically and cause death or serious injury and/or vehicle damage.
NOTICE: This product does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Configuration, servicing, and repairs must only be made by an authorized reseller or installer. Unauthorized servicing of these products will void your product warranty.
CAUTION! Always use adapter harness (HRN-CG13S1) with the GO9 (pre-V2) for heavy-duty trucks to avoid possible damage to the GO9 device. For more information, see gtb.page.link/mWQF
