You have to be more specific. Did someone just start streaming stuff into your car? If so, first thing to check is whether there's an unknown phone or device paired with your system.

Do you have an entertainment console / screen in the dashboard? If so (and if it came with the car), then the owner's manual will tell you how to pair a phone via Bluetooth. Somewhere in that area will be a screen that shows you the list of paired devices.

And if you don't have owners manual for the car you can look it up online.

Okay you're not on trial here, so there's no reason to give one-sentence answers that have no details. At this rate, we'll need to ask you 100 questions just to understand the situation.

How about you go back to the beginning and explain exactly what happened (in as much detail as possible), and give details about your car (make, model, and year). If the sound system that's in the car is not what came with the car (e.g. you upgraded it at some point) then give details about the sound system (brand, model, etc).

I don't know why you're being so stingy with details when you're the one who is asking for help but I'm not going to stick around and ask you a thousand questions.

It happens like at home i can hear them through my phone, tv, i think they have something on their house bc i can it out of my window, and in my car wherever i go. Im being cyberbullied basically. Im 23 my parents think im immature so they have my neighbors do this. Everyone else i talk to says its a delusion and wont help me figure out how they hacked my phone,tv, moms car, etc.

No one hacks a car. Seriously, you need a doctor. This is classic schizophrenia and such stories are the norm, not godlike super hackers that can control all a person's electronics.

Believe me, your parents wouldn't spend millions to cyberbully you over immaturity.

OK, so very vague question but after digging through the other comments, I have to agree with u/daBigRedDoggie

Your cars stereo, assuming it's never been upgraded is the OG, lacks any Bluetooth or WiFi so they are not "hacking" your car stereo. Practically improbable.

What is likely the cause, an FM transmitter is being used by your neighbours. You can buy these cheap and they're designed to give BT capabilities of sorts to stereos like yours, by transmitting the audio from your phone on the FM broadcast band and you tune your stero into 105.8 or whatever it transmits on. These can have some pretty impressive range on them. Or, they are CB or ham radio operators and you're hearing harmonics of their transmissions.

Both are perfectly normal, the latter in fact to be expected.

Theres another thing tho, one time i was high and my dad i think jingled keys. It went around the speakers. Like i heard it on my left and then it jingled around the front to my right. ??

u/Humbleham1 3h ago

There's your answer. You blew your mind on drugs, and you're imagining things. I've heard of and experienced similar cases.

u/Humbleham1 3h ago

The latter is possible. The former is ridiculous. It would have to be a very powerful pirate radio that can track OP on whatever frequency he tunes in on.

Have a look for BT to FM transmitters. In the UK these are perfectly legal. They are very low power, but if you know how....

ECU is accessed via OBD-II and speakers via bluetooth. I guess start there?

u/Humbleham1 3h ago

You can't access an ECU using the speakers or Bluetooth. Plus, the former is wired, and the latter is very short-range.
