The method to activate a truck ETC card is: 1. Use your phone to scan the QR code on the ETC device and download the corresponding app; 2. After successful download, open the app, register an account as required, and after successful login, click on OBD activation; 3. Insert the ETC bank card as instructed, turn on the phone's Bluetooth, and install the ETC device on the right side of the central rearview mirror on the front windshield; 4. After the phone and device are successfully connected, enter the laser number. The device's laser number is the uppercase code of the device manufacturer's name followed by the last four digits of the device's number. Click to connect; 5. After connection, follow the prompts to take photos and record videos for upload. Typically, this includes a set of interior photos, a set of exterior photos, and an exterior flash video. After uploading, wait for staff review.
I just bought a heavy-duty truck and spent some time figuring out how to activate the ETC card. First, make sure the ETC device is installed correctly and the card is inserted. I activated it through a mobile app—download the bank or service provider’s application, register an account, scan the card number, enter the license plate and ID information, and submit for review, which usually takes just a few minutes. After activation, it’s best to take a quick test run through a highway toll station to confirm the sensor works properly, avoiding issues on the road. New drivers should double-check all details, like truck load and model, as mistakes can lead to activation failure and require starting over. For maintenance, check monthly for loose device connections and update the app regularly to prevent system glitches. The process is straightforward, but attention to detail ensures smooth operation.
