Default GPS tracking bug?!

Hey everyone,
I have a 2016 Laramie, 6.7 3500 diesel and a crazy ex boyfriend who I think put a gps tracker in my truck as he always knows where I am and what I am doing. Always 😡

I bought a bug detector and have scanned my entire truck, and it’s only going off in one section. I am wondering if you know if there is anything magnetic here, or anything that could be a false positive?

this person is a former electrician so I’m guessing it’s a wired in version, as this has been going on for a couple years now and I know the stick on magnetic ones only have a battery that lasts a few weeks at most.

I don’t know trucks well, and I can’t get an appointment with a mechanic for several weeks in my city as they’re all booked up.

just throwing this out there as a shot in the dark!
I think the area is connected to some transmission belt, and he did tons of work on my truck including replacement of this belt around the time all this stalking stuff started to happen…

thanks!

That's the a/c compressor, and there are indeed magnets in there.

My question becomes, is he tracking your phone? That would seem far more likely.

been down that route. He only knows my location when I’ve driven in my truck. Doesn’t know when I’ve taken Ubers or been given rides

I’ll keep looking. Thanks for the info!
