ONEROAD

Get your fleet connected

Three steps to activate your OneRoad subscription: create your account, register your vehicles, then install and pair your OBx.

OBx activation guide — about 15 to 20 minutes

Phase 1

Create your account

At app.oneroad.io on a desktop or laptop browser — about 5 minutes

Account creation must be done in a browser on a desktop or laptop, not in the mobile app.
  1. 1

    Sign up as a Fleet Owner

    Go to app.oneroad.io, click Sign Up, and choose Fleet Owner as your user type. This unlocks fleet management and device pairing.

  2. 2

    Add your company details

    Enter your trading name, ABN, company email and phone number, then continue.

  3. 3

    Add licence details, if you'll drive

    Only needed if you, the Fleet Owner, also drive within your fleet. Skip for now — you can add it later in settings.

Phase 2

Register your vehicles

In the OneRoad dashboard — required before any device install

All vehicles must be registered in the portal before you install any OBx device.
  1. 1

    Log in to your dashboard

    At app.oneroad.io, sign in with your mobile number and SMS code.

  2. 2

    Go to Fleet, then Assets

    Click Fleet in the top nav, then the Assets tab.

  3. 3

    Add each vehicle

    Tap + Add Asset, search by registration number, confirm the details, then Add Asset to Fleet. Repeat for every vehicle getting a device.

Phase 3

Install and pair your OBx

Repeat for each vehicle in your fleet

Before you start: park the vehicle safely, check for dashboard warning lights with the engine running, and confirm the OBD-II port is undamaged.

Find your vehicle's guide

Port location and mounting differ by vehicle. Open the matching guide below for photos of your exact setup.

Hardware install

  1. 1

    Plug in with the ignition off

    Find the OBD-II port (usually on the driver's side under the dash — your vehicle guide above shows the exact spot) and plug in the OBx. The connector is keyed, so it only fits one way. Push until it clicks.

  2. 2

    Ignition on, check the light

    Turn the ignition to ON. The engine doesn't need to run. Give it 15 to 30 seconds to initialise.

    Flashing blue — the device is active and ready to pair
    A new warning light on the dash? Remove the OBx and contact support@oneroad.io before retrying.
  3. 3

    Secure with a cable tie

    Tie down the device and cable, clear of the pedals, steering column and airbag panels. Check it regularly — Chain of Responsibility makes you accountable for anything fitted to the vehicle.

Pair in the app

  1. 1

    Open Profile, then Devices

    In the OneRoad app, tap Profile, then the options menu, then Devices. Make sure Bluetooth is on.

  2. 2

    Add the device and select your vehicle

    Tap Add new device to your fleet, then select the correct registration when it appears. Device assignment is permanent once paired.

  3. 3

    Confirm, then repeat

    Keep your phone within 1 to 2 metres until pairing completes. Verify in Fleet, then Assets on the portal, and repeat for your next vehicle.

Your fleet is connected

Paired vehicles are live in the OneRoad platform immediately. Adding a new vehicle later? Register it in the portal first, then repeat this phase.
