An automotive device 101 has a processor, a memory, a network connection and an On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) connection connectable to an OBD port of a vehicle. The device is operable to detect when the device is detached from an OBD port of a vehicle. A notification of detachment is transmitted over the network connection when a detachment is detected. Disconnection can be detected by monitoring an electrical connection between the device and an OBD port of the vehicle and monitoring a switch at the OBD connection. A second invention relates to a method of detecting a disconnection of an OBD connection by monitoring an electrical connection and a hardware switch at the OBD connection.
