The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration on November 20 removed five ELDs from the list of registered electronic logging devices and warns that truckers need to replace them with compliant models.

ELDs are electronic devices used to track commercial driver hours of service and are mandatory for most interstate trucking operations.

Motor carriers and drivers using any of the revoked ELDs below have 60 days to replace them with compliant ELDs.

What ELDs Were Removed From the List?

On November 20, 2025, FMCSA removed the following ELDs from the list of registered ELDs due to the companies' failure to meet the minimum requirements established in Title 49 CFR Appendix A to Subpart B of Part 395.

These ELDs now appear on FMCSA’s Revoked Devices list:

• Ontime Logs PT model number OTL100

• Green Light ELD model number PT30, IOSiX

• Sahara ELD, model number GDELD1000

• USFAST ELD, model number USFASTELD1

• ELDWISE, model number EWS

What Should I Do If My ELD Is Put on FMCSA's Revoked List?

Motor carriers and drivers have up to 60 days to replace the revoked ELDs with compliant ELDs. FMCSA says those using the non-compliant devices must take the following actions:

1. Discontinue using the revoked ELDs and revert to paper logs or logging software to record required hours of service data.

2. Replace the revoked ELDs with compliant ELDs from the Registered Devices list before January 20, 2025.

Motor carriers and drivers who continue to use the revoked ELDs listed above on or after January 20 will be in violation of 49 CFR 395.8(a)(1)—“No record of duty status” and drivers will be placed out-of-service (OOS) in accordance with the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance OOS Criteria.

Can an ELD Make it Back on the Approved List?

If the ELD providers correct all identified deficiencies for its device, FMCSA will place the ELD back on the Registered Devices list and inform the industry and the field of the update.

However, this has happened only a handful of times. 

FMCSA strongly encourages motor carriers to take the actions listed above now to avoid compliance issues in the event that these deficiencies are not addressed by the ELD provider.
