What Is Ghost Immobiliser And Why Is Everyone Dissing It?

Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me

Modern day thieves can take vehicles in less than a minute. They use the OBD port of the vehicle to hack into the ECU and then duplicate the key and all with a laptop hidden in the vehicle.

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser can prevent this by sending pin codes to buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels and central console). It is completely undetectable to anyone in your car.

No key fobs or LED indicators, or any other means of locating the vehicle are in place.

If you're looking for a method to stop keyless entry theft or key cloning then look no further than the ghost immobiliser. This device is designed to safeguard your vehicle against these types of attacks by blocking the engine after a valid pin code is entered. This is a highly efficient method of protecting your vehicle, and insurance companies see it as a safety measure that could help lower the cost of your policy.

The way in which the ghost works is by connecting to your vehicles CAN data network. Once installed by us at Car Theft Solutions it will only start when you press the exact sequence of buttons using your personal override code. The engine will not begin if you try to start your vehicle without using the code. The criminal then realizes they have been caught and will most likely leave the vehicle.

One of the major advantages of this system is that it does not transmit any signals like the tracker, which means that thieves cannot make use of RF signal receivers to locate your Ghost device. It does not emit any IR (infrared signals) as do typical remote control key fobs as well as trackers, making it difficult to hack or evade.

The Ghost also has a valet-mode that can be activated when you are giving your vehicle to an individual for parking or service. This will turn off the CAN immobiliser for 30mph, and allows you to operate the vehicle as normal with your key fob or smartphone app. When the vehicle is set up, the Ghost will regain full functioning.

No hacking or cloning

The Autowatch Ghost is one of the most advanced immobilisers available on the market, it protects your vehicle from key cloning and hacking making it nearly impossible to take. The only method to steal your car is to physically remove it. Even then, they wouldn't be able to start the engine.

This is because unlike other immobilisers that only stop your vehicle from starting if they do not have your fob, this system actually shuts off your engine control unit so that the vehicle can't start. The system transmits an alert via buttons on the steering wheel, door panel or the centre console. It can only be removed with the correct pin code configuration.

Its sleek and discreet design allows it to seamlessly into your car without the necessity of additional keys or LED indicators. It runs independently of the factory tracker or alarm. It also functions as a bus immobiliser which means that it sits within the control area network of your vehicle and doesn't interfere with other devices, such as your vehicle's built in key fob or alarm.

This unique technology isn't easily detected by thieves unlike other systems that employ codes grabbing and RF scanning. It only transmits a series of pin codes that are silently transmitted through the buttons on your vehicle's steering wheels or door panels, or central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary device that shields your vehicle from theft of keyless entry and smart key theft. It does this by creating a unique pin code, that must be entered to disarm the device.

With the growing number of keyless entry cars on the road the thieves are becoming more sophisticated and are using cloning equipment that can be bought on the internet or in the classifieds for less than PS15. The cloned key fob could be used to gain access to the vehicle. The standard immobiliser can only stop the car from starting if the thief has your original key fob. This isn't enough security and it's not difficult to get criminals to jam or spoof signals to unlock your car.

Valet mode

Standard immobilisers installed to your vehicle use an electronic chip to send signals. The system will then search for the code sent by the key to begin the vehicle. If the signal is not able to be received, the system will cut off the power and prevent the vehicle from beginning. This is the principle behind all aftermarket immobilisers and is a crucial security measure to ensure that your car can't be stolen even if someone else has your keys or a device that could increase the signal from your key fob.

A ghost immobiliser does more than just stop this. The system, which sits on the CAN bus of your Mercedes is programmed with a unique pin code push sequence that must be entered to start the vehicle. This is then locked on your app, and no one will ever be able to access it unless they have the same pin number that you have.

The system will also prevent hacking, cloning and signal jamming (which can be used by thieves to get around the immobiliser in your vehicle). If a burglar gets their hands on the keys to your car or fob, they won't be able to start your vehicle even if it is parked nearby. The only way they could get your car away is to physically transport it off on a flatbed lorry which is extremely unlikely.

Valet mode is a standard feature with your ghost car immobiliser (a cool way to improve) immobiliser. When it is activated the car's glove box and trunk will be locked, so that thieves will not have any personal items to take with them. It also limits the speed of your Tesla to ensure that it cannot be driven over 70mph. It also will disable insane modes. It will also conceal your home and work addresses and restrict your driver profiles and also lock your Tesla dashboard to ensure that no one else is able to access your private data.

If you wish to use your vehicle for valet parking or for service reasons, simply choose the 'Valet/Service' option in the dashboard app and enter your 4-digit valet number on the touchscreen. After this is done, the alarm functions will be bypassed however, it will prevent you from starting your car without a valid pin entered. This is perfect for people who have to hand their car over to others like garage mechanics and taxi drivers.

The first-ever aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser

The Autowatch Ghost provides unbeatable security and is the first aftermarket CAN-bus immobiliser in the world. It safeguards you from key hacking or cloning, and even the theft of keys. This is achieved by working alongside your vehicles current interface. It does not require additional fobs or remotes and instead works with the vehicle's data network CAN. This makes it a discreet gadget.

The device is a circuit board buried inside your car's engine control unit (ECU). It operates quietly. When activated, it stops your car from starting until a specific PIN is entered. This is a unique number that you will be given when you make an appointment for installation. This number is required to activate valet, disable the alarm, or let you drive away in a vehicle belonging to a family member (if they also have Ghost installed).

It is designed in a way that it is not spotted by anyone looking at your car's interior. does not send any radio signals, and is only heard when it's being activated. It can be placed in many different places which makes it virtually impossible to identify. It is also a low-maintenance device and can be incorporated in conjunction with other systems like a tracker (Brand dependent) to provide an all-inclusive anti-theft solution.

Many people install a ghost immobiliser as they feel that the standard security measures are not sufficient to protect their pride and joy. Physical deterrents such as wheel clamps and steering wheel locks are great alternatives, but they are not considered "theft-proof" by thieves as they are easily beaten with the proper tools. A ghost immobiliser is, however, unable to be bypassed by a thief since it is concealed inside the vehicle. Its activation activated, it will shut down the components like the starter motor or fuel system.

The best part is that a ghost immobiliser can be installed for as low as PS450, which is less than the cost of ghost immobiliser of other products out there - and it actually can stop your car from being taken away!
