Lost contact with a trailer? The Find My Trailer heatmap shows where your trailer has moved and dwelled over the last 7 or 30 days, and highlights the 5 locations (under Tracking History) where it spent the most time. That history gives you a strong starting point for your search, even if the FleetPulse device has been damaged or removed.

Here's how to use it:

  1. Sign in to my.fleetpulse.com and open the Map View page (Figure 1).
  2. Enter the trailer ID or VIN in the search bar and press Enter. The map zooms to your trailer and opens the Trailer Detail Drawer (Figure 2).
  3. Click Tracking (Figure 3).
  4. Select Heatmap, then choose 7 or 30 days. The map shows the trailer's movement over that period and marks the places where it dwelled the longest (Figure 4).
