Someone stole the GPS locator in the car. How to find out?

If car owners suspect that someone has installed a GPS locator in their car, we must first determine the motivation of the other party to install a GPS locator in our car, which will help us find the GPS locator in our car. People with different motives and purposes will choose different installation methods and quantities, but many GPS installation locations are hidden. Even if all the cars are torn down, there will be fish escaping through the net.

Most car owners who are worried about installing GPS locators in their cars prove that they have problems. Ordinary people like us are too lazy to install a GPS locator in the car.

I installed GPS myself.

I had a strange customer here before and asked if our store could check whether the vehicle was equipped with GPS, so I asked her why she suspected that her car was equipped with GPS. She told me that after I broke up with my ex-boyfriend, no matter where he goes now, his ex-boyfriend will send text messages to harass him after locating her position, which makes him very uncomfortable. As for the truth of the matter, I don't know, but from this I found that GPS is really terrible.

Installation method and type of GPS locator

At present, there are only two ways to install GPS locator in the market, one is wired power supply and the other is wireless installation. No matter what kind of locator, it transmits signals by SIM, so there will be a minimum monthly 5 yuan traffic fee. 1, wired GPS is easy to find, usually installed on OBD or battery position. The biggest feature of this GPS locator is that it can be positioned in real time as long as the vehicle starts, and it can completely control the driver's driving trajectory. Some will design the location of the locator in the fuse box and meter, or in the plastic threshold. In any case, it can be installed as long as there are live wires and ground wires.

The wired GPS locator not only has the function of positioning, but also can connect the signal line on the GPS locator with the signal line of the oil pump to realize the function of remote fuel cut-off and flameout.

2, wireless power supply GPS, this kind of GPS is really hard to find, the installation location is even more strange, hard to prevent. This GPS locator is attached to the car body by strong magnetic attraction. What I encounter most is that it is installed on the exhaust pipe or the chassis of the car body. The most exaggerated thing is that YT-proof packaging is put in the oil tank, and some are cut and welded on the wing beam and anti-collision beam. This tricky installation method will only appear on the mortgage car, so we still don't want it.

3. Android navigation or cloud mirror's own APP can be located in real time as long as it is bound to WeChat. This is the most easily overlooked, and every car owner can check it himself.

If the GPS locator realizes long-term positioning and standby, the equipment is in a non-positioning state and in a silent discharge state. If it is positioned, the power consumption will be relatively large. If there is no electricity, we need to take it down and charge it.

The use of main charges for locators in the market:

Ordinary compact: standby for 300 days, real-time positioning at startup for about 10 days.

Compact: standby for 800 days, real-time positioning for about 20 days.

High standard: standby time 1500 days, real-time positioning for about 50 days.

Equipped with persistent version: standby for 2200 days, real-time positioning at startup 100 days.

Right high battery life version: standby time is 3200 days, and real-time positioning is about 150 days.

These locators can't be located when they are in standby, and they can only be located when they are started remotely.

The method of excluding GPS locator is 1. Buy a special GPS detector, the price ranges from hundreds to thousands of dollars. Because GPS locators are all located by SIM cards similar to mobile phones, handheld detectors can locate them.

2. Turn the radio to a clear channel and walk around the car. If it is disturbed, prove that there is a locator in this position.

3, buy a high-power signal shield, which is a way to hurt the enemy 1000 and damage the enemy by 800. Once installed, the signal inside the car can't get out, the external signal can't get in, and even the mobile phone can't be used.

4. Disassemble the whole vehicle, especially the interior, and then use the detector to search and check bit by bit. However, in order to achieve long-term positioning, the signals of many wireless locators are only transmitted for a few days, so it is quite difficult to find such locators.

Normal shops will not check the GPS locator for customers, and regular auto repair shops will not check whether the GPS locator is installed for customers in several cases, mainly because the owner can't prove under what circumstances the vehicle locator was installed, which may be a loan to buy a car, or it may be illegally installed by law enforcement departments. Once we dismantle it without authorization, it is also against the law.

1. When buying mortgage cars, the creditor's rights of most mortgage cars are unclear, so many criminals take advantage of the loopholes to sell these cars at low prices and use GPS locators to locate them before robbing them. There are a large number of GPS locators installed in this kind of car, and the positioning is also very difficult.

2. One spouse is derailed and the other spouse is monitored by GPS. All the customers I met were the other side who installed GPS locator on the exhaust pipe.

3. Commercial competition or other positioning behaviors for private purposes. If you encounter such a situation, it is best to call the police directly.

Conclusion If they are normal families, there is no need to worry that their vehicles are equipped with GPS locators. Most of them are worried about people who are eager to buy a mortgage car cheaply. I advise you not to use this kind of car. The creditor's rights are unclear, and several people come to rob the car at any time.
