How to Detect if a Tracking Device Has Been Installed on Your Car?
1 Answers
There are several methods to check if a tracking device has been installed on your car: 1. Directly search for car information: As is well known, to avoid detection, people may try to install or place GPS trackers in relatively hidden locations, such as near the front and rear bumpers, inside and outside the doors, etc. However, this also makes these so-called hidden spots common knowledge. 2. Follow the wires to check the circuit: Currently, most GPS trackers on the market are still wired and need to be connected to the car's power supply to function. Therefore, to find a GPS tracker installed by someone, follow the car's power lines. This method, however, requires more professional personnel, as one might not know the exact location of the power lines otherwise. 3. Check the OBD interface: Nowadays, many OBD devices come with functions like vehicle fault diagnosis, anomaly detection, positioning, and driving records. For example, the Music Position Locator Smart Diagnostic Terminal can not only detect various fault codes in the vehicle but also perform positioning. By plugging into the OBD interface, it can provide features like point naming, timed tracking, fuel consumption analysis, and driving optimization. Therefore, when searching for a tracker, the OBD interface should also be checked.
