Abstract: Connected tractor and trailer identifications and the order of hook-up of multiple trailers to a tractor is are determined by identifying trailer VINs using a PLC system and eliminating Bluetooth signals that do not broadcast trailer VINs that match the PLC system. A tractor-based Bluetooth trailer order and a trailer-based Bluetooth trailer order utilizing RSSI value strengths are determined. The trailer order is set if the tractor-based Bluetooth trailer order matches the trailer-based Bluetooth order. If the order does not match, a RSSI value weighting process is used to choose between the tractor-based order and the trailer-based order.
