That explains why many car owners still use a steering wheel lock. Those, usually yellow, steering immobilizers. Thieves may unlock it but not take away the vehicle
Not really, having the unlock code doesn't mean they also replicate the key chip, code needed to start the engine unless equipped with remote or keyless (pushbutton) proximity based start.
You can get a pocket shield sleeve for each of your key FOB units. You can also get a small metal box, or use any type of metal container for storage of your key FOB units. When outside you can reduce the range of your key FOB by leaving it in the shield sleeve. You would have to go right up next to the car to use it. If you want to be fanatic with the FOB unit remove the battery. Use the inserted key to get in to the vehicle. Use the process to start the vehicle as like when the FOB battery is dead. Check the user manual about how to enter and start your vehicle when the FOB battery is dead.
It would be easier for manufacturers to add an on/off switch to the fob or stop it from 24/7 transmitting. For now, you can probably just pull the battery
Stupid advise, just push lock button continuously and while doing so push unlock twice. The fob will be disabled… to enable just push unlock once and your good to go.. good luck.
A guard dog might work. But in all reality the box seem good. Soon after new technology comes out the thieves will find away to circumvent it. To bad they don't use their talents for good.
this isn't a "relay" or the old school rolling code attack of yore, they are literally just amplifying your key fobs signal to make the car think the keyfob is next to the car. They can also start the car and drive away and then make a new key for it later.
Somebody has to put a stop to these devices or they need to do a recall all vehicles to correct this problem because my mom's truck get taken away and the police is acting very slow in progress of trying to do something about it .
Doesn't a keyfob have to be constantly transmitting for this to be possible? Why would a keyfob need to be transponding when not actively being used? Either way, this is a problem manufacturers can easily solve.
This may be one of the reasons why you get some sort of a discount for keeping a vehicle in a garage. It would make it harder for someone to just walk up to it with some device and open the doors or start it and drive it away. Some garage doors have physical locks that slide into holes in the track that would make opening the door nearly impossible. That is because even if they somehow managed to repeat the remote control signal it still couldn't open. One more thing I can do is cut power to the garage at the breaker (at the flip of a switch) and the garage door openers can't possibly work then. Now about those sliding locks, they are separate from the red handle used to open the door when the power is out and they do take considerable force to pull. If those locks are used the door is impossible to open. They are strong enough to damage the gears in the openers if you forgot that you slid the locks too so keep that in mind. Those locks work well to prevent someone from fishing a wire to the red emergency handle. It is only an emergency handle because you can use it to open the door even if the power is out, allowing you to drive your vehicle in an emergency situation. They are NOT INTENDED to prevent injuries from the door if it closes on someone (most doors will automatically stop and open if this somehow happens).
We use a seatbelt steering wheel lock and brake/ steering wheel lock. The dogs go crazy when they hear anything and we aren't afraid to let one out. Beware of dog sign and no trespassing signs are outside.
Simple solution cheap effective and convenient, have a tiny battery cut off power off switch/button in key so it only sends code when powered up. Without battery supply the key is just a metal lump. Car manufacturers take note. Its always the case, in quest for technology implementation simple things are overlooked
Low life’s happened to me. Dirt bags from a garden apt in NJ such low life’s! People don’t want to believe it! I miss the good old fashioned lock and key
Some people are even crazier. They coil a bunch of copper wire and shit to an old computer power supply and it disrupts some wireless signals nearby. They say they do it because the CIA is sending wireless signals to their brains
This sounds like Misinformation. I think they can only "capture" your signal when your Key Fob is in USE not just sitting on the counter. The Thieves get near you at the Super Market Parking Lot, You open your car with the Key Fob, they Capture your Signal, follow you home, then come back later when you are asleep.
A proximity type key fob will always emit a radio frequency which is registered by the vehicle if you're close enough to it. If it picks up the unique signal from the key, the doors unlock by simply touching the door handle. Thieves know which cars have this functionality and target these homes. They'll walk up with a hidden antenna, wait for the antenna to capture the signal from the proximity key fob, and then boost the signal so that the car thinks the key is nearby. From that point, the thief simply touches the door handle and voila, instantly in the vehicle.
It’s not misinformation. Newer cars have keyless entry that works off proximity. You don’t have to push the buttons to arm/disarm. You just have to be near the car. Some cars allow you to disable this feature but most people use it as a convenience. It is nice but it opens you up to relay attacks. They copy the RF that is constantly being emitted and then resend it next to the car which makes the car think you are standing there with the fob and allows them to open the door and start the car without the fob. That’s why you will see videos of thieves walking around outside of houses with large antennas on the relay. They are looking for the RF signal of the fob sitting inside the house.
@@drb2k580 That keyless entry proximity needs to be initiated by touching the handle and has a range no larger than the car. You'd need to be within 2 feet of the car for it to work.
@@TraceguyRune they can transmit up to 6 feet on some models. The way relay attacks work is the thieves receive and amplify the signal from the key fob inside the house then send it to a receiver who is within range of the car and touching the handle and it acts as though the person has the key fob within range.
No to rain on your parade but I highly doubt a metal box will work. For anything to work, it has to be made with the intention of blocking a wireless signal (or at least attenuating the signal so much that it can't be picked up from a certain distance. DO NOT rely on foil or metal boxes on their own. The last thing you need is a false sense of security from thinking such a generic signal blocker is all you need. It is just naive!!
no the signal gets airborne when the owner of the car presses the unlock button, when that happens they fob sends a code to the cars ecm to unlock it, that same code that is airborne gets intercepted . then with a computer software program you decrypt the signal code and recode it into another key fob then you steal tha car. your welcome. Quantum computing can hack any code
Basically if man builds it another man can unbuild it, if a new design comes out, and there's a device available for business purposes such as a lock smith, then that device should only be available for Lock Smith's, and it should be regulated just like the silencer for a gun which you have to apply for one through the Fed's then it'll be a paper trail of who owns one.. but nooo all you have to do is go online and buy one . So basically putting our electronics in a metal box or a big asz ball of aluminum foil and the signal is untraceable?? Hum so with the alarms merchandise at stores too?? Your CELLPHONE'S too, I DONT get it, CZcams shows a crook not only how your mom car got stolen but also how to steal it back
First of all, I drive a car with start button; which means, you can't even start a car without a key being physically in the car, near you; you can't drive at all if a key is not with you! Now, I am speaking about start button technique in the cars, not every car has that feature
Push button cars use proximity keys. if they can open the door, they can drive off with it. The BCM or immobilizer sends a challenge password or key to the FOB when you push a button on it, or by pushing the start button. The proximity fob replies, and you can unlock/start the vehicle. For factory security systems, the password never changes. Advanced aftermarket alarms have passkeys that always change, and the same code can never be used more than once.
RSA one time passwords... 20 year old tech.... works.. they get a password/code but that code is used once and never again. Most gargage door opener do the same since 2010s..
Yes its true that's why I like 1998-2004 fobs. And anti theft . the thing is get another alarm 2 or 3 way alarm. Hook up to horn to sound original Changes codes with door switches change door locks to another make as well as ignition and trunk. Either they will skip it or break the lock or try .. By then time ran out . some have towing sensors they may be annoying due to sensesitivity. And have a a killer switch hidden or push start or anti car jacking and always hide a. Fob
i use a cookie tin and it works well, just put your keys inside and close the lid and see if you can open your door. If you can't then their amplifier won't be able to either.
I have a Prius so to unlock the door I just put my hand on the door handle and the intelligent key will just unlock my door. Once I put my key in the cookie tin and close the lid and put my hand on the door handle it won’t open. The signal is now blocked and the car can’t see the key
@@johnnywang206 The moment the intelligent key communicates to unlock it, that's when they can grab the signal. it's far easier to grab out in the open as people approach a vehicle that to get it through the walls of a home from the outside, unless you're taping your key to the window, lol.
I need to get one of those signal duplicators.I have a motorcycle that uses a key fob, but they only give you one and there is no other way to start the bike. The fob comes with a card that has a code you can use to get a new fob, but some idiot at the dealership lost it.
Who's going to cry? It's a brilliant idea. I tried to do it myself, but the key fob was so tightly packed on the inside I couldn't do it without making it look sloppy, so I gave up. It's very easy concept though if you want to do it home made. You just need a mini on/off switch and maybe 2 tiny 22 AWG wires. Key fobs are powered by little 3v watch batteries, so nothing fancy is needed. You put the switch between the battery and the grounding on the fob and you could control whether the circuit is open or closed.
@@TraceguyRune Maybe even get one 3D printed if you are into that. All you would have to do is make the shell and buttons. Doing it that way you can add the cutouts for the buttons while you are at it and make it big enough to accommodate a switch.

Uh what ? Steering wheels bend easily (to prevent injury....). 1 solid kick to the wheel, it's bent, steering wheel lock can be removed while locked.
I prefer a series of hidden kill switches
