Answer by Lover not a Fighter
It is really hard. You need something called spread spectrum analyser. They are costly and difficult to learn how to use.

You can also get a anti bugging specialist to un-bug your car.

Other than that, you can closely inspect your automobile with a flashlight – as GPS need to have clear view of the sky.

But do not worry. GPS tracking devices are expensive. You probably do NOT have a GPS tracker.

good Luck…

Answer by studente_1
You are speaking about such a minor system drain from the GPS Tracker that there must be an issue with your battery or alternator. You can get a free diagnostic run at most parts stores such as Autozone.

where would a GPS tracking device be located in a car?
I think I am being followed. I know for a fact my automobile was broken into and I know who did it. Now I can be in the middle of no where and that per son pops up. Where would this GPS be installed at????

Answer by Nicholas
This should be a very obvious device. Assuming that you have not noticed an external antenna, which would be a small, black in color box, about twice the size of a quarter, with a wire leading from it. This device would have to be fairly massive and powered. First look in the trunk, under the all the capet, including along the sides, not just the above the spare tire. Look under the spare tire and up under the deck (area between the back seats and the rear window is called the rear deck). Look under all seats inside the car, under the glove box and under the dash. It could also be mounted under the car. Look along the frame rails, and any space you can fit you hands easy.

Remember, it will be a powered device, so look for any wireing that looks like it should not be there.

GPS TRACKING ON CAR?

Question by Brento!:
GPS Tracking on Car?
If you suspect you might have a GPS tracking device on your car, how would you find it and remove it? Are there GPS tracker trackers out there? What would it look like typically?

——————————————

Answer by cactii10
GPS stands for the Global Positioning System, it is a set of satellites that send out THE SATELLITE positional information – not yours.

Your GPS device is only a receiver of the satellite signals which are processed and then your GPS device tells you your location.

A GPS device does not send an signals out to the satellite or to the 911 service or in fact, not to anybody.

There are some devices available now that do track their own location and send them to a server where a user can see the position but they are still quite expensive. They are typically black box with an extra hard, weatherproof casing and use some sort of locking device to attach themselves to the object being tracked.

You can find more information about GPSs and some tips at http://www.sourcegps.com

Would you like to know where to buy a GPS Tracking System for your Car?
My children are both in High School and I put one in my older son’s car. I think it is the greatest thing! It gives me piece of mind when he is driving. He is a good kid, but a few of his friends have been racing. I am happy to know my son isn’t, (at least in his car)
