This process guides you through how to disassociate a Beacon from a vehicle using AuctionTrac. Usually, the Gate App is used to disassociate a Beacon during check out. However, AuctionTrac is used in some cases (eg. the vehicle is leaving on a work pass or the vehicle is being checked out with AMS).

Before following this guide, make sure to physically remove the Beacon, tether, and magnet from the vehicle. The following list provides guidance on common Beacon installation spots:

Location

Notes

Front driver’s side visor

Front driver’s side door handle

Used if there is no visor or the visor is damaged.

Rear-view mirror

Used if the door handle was not viable.
