Ghost Immobiliser 2

Secures your vehicle from key cloning & stopping thieves driving it with the original keys. Our most recent immobiliser connects to the CAN data network of your vehicle and a unique pin must be entered in order to start the engine.

Ghost, unlike trackers, does not emit radio frequency signals, and therefore cannot be identified by diagnostic tools. There are also no LED indicators or buttons giving the impression that it is in your van or car.

Anti-key cloning

The Ghost immobiliser was developed to prevent key cloning. This device connects with your vehicle's data network CAN, and creates a unique pin number using the factory buttons in your dashboard and steering. This stops the thief from being able start your vehicle. If the wrong PIN is entered, it will prevent your engine from running, making it impossible to drive off with joy and pride.

Ghost immobilisers are new technology that is extremely hard for thieves to beat. Contrary to physical deterrents, such as wheel locks and steering locks that can be cut or jacked, the ghost immobiliser is a discrete electronic device that cannot be detected by common thieves because it doesn't emit radio signals and operates in a silent manner.

The next-generation immobiliser protects your vehicle from a range of threats, such as key-hacking relay attacks, key hacking and duplicate copies. It also has the ability to stop the thief from adding an additional key or replacing your ECU by ensuring that it does not allow them to start your car without entering the correct PIN code first.

Contrary to other immobilisers, the ghost immobiliser 2 does not require any additional remote or key fobs for operation. It can be turned off by using an app that is installed on the smartphone of the driver. This makes it perfect for those occasions when you have to give your car over for valet parking or maintenance without key fobs.

The autowatch ghost immobiliser Ghost-II represents the latest evolution of Ghost immobiliser. It was designed to be as easy and convenient to use as possible, but remains as secure as ever. This is achieved by integrating the Ghost-II with the vehicle's CAN data network, which means there are no extra wires that could be concealed or easily found. It also has a built-in feature that allows you to disarm your Ghost-II by simply connecting to the vehicle's Bluetooth, so you can get in and drive, with no hassle.

OBD port hacking

OBD port hacking has become the latest method used by professional car thieves. Thieves are able to access your vehicle's OBD port with no more than an laptop, an app, and a few cables which can be bought online for less than PS50. Once they have access to your vehicle's OBD port, they are able to do whatever they like from setting fault codes, and tuning your vehicle to taking your joy and pride away in less than a minute.

If you have a Ghost immobiliser fitted it can protect your vehicle from theft using this method, by needing an unique PIN code sequence is entered alongside your key fob to start the engine and drive away. It communicates with the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) via the CAN Data Circuit. This is completely undetectable by any RF scanning technology or code grabbing. It also includes a Service/Valet mode that allows your vehicle to be started without the need for a PIN code.

To use an OBD hacking device, you'll need to have a laptop with software capable of interpreting the OBD protocol. These is available for less than PS100 on ebay or Amazon. You'll also require an OBD cable that has OBD pins which are connected to the CAN bus. These can be found on Amazon/Ebay for around PS50. The cable must be spliced into the wiring harness of your car, like the radio wiring harness.

Once the hacker has a connection to your vehicle's OBD port, they are able to send diagnostics to the system at high baud rates which will crash the CAN and stop systems inside your car from functioning. This could cause your vehicle's engine to stop or lock up.

There is no need for additional remotes or key fobs

A car immobiliser is great piece of anti theft technology used by billions of modern cars around the globe. An aftermarket immobiliser safeguards your vehicle with engine ECU software that blocks vehicles from starting when an untrue transponder signal is sent.

It is possible for a thief in the event that they have the code to disable an immobiliser, and bypass it. A burglar could easily take the battery off of most key fobs by prying them open. They can then use a simple tool in order to take out the circuit board inside an immobiliser and replace it with a blank. They will then be able start your vehicle.

The TASSA approved Ghost 2 is an immobiliser that does not require any additional keys or remotes. The immobiliser connects to the vehicle's engine ECU (Engine Control Unit) through a discreet quiet data circuit in CAN that is not detectable by diagnostic tools, such as the ones employed by high-tech thieves. It also does not utilize a traditional key fob with LED indicators, meaning it's not visible at a glance.

There will be times where you have to disable autowatch ghost immobiliser fitting Ghost 2's automatic protection, for example during the valet parking or service work. The ghost CAN immobiliser has a special mode for this, called 'Service Mode that is activated by a push of a button on your smartphone. The car can still be operated, but the maximum speed is restricted to 36 mph for added security.

Simple Change of PIN Code

Ghost is the next-generation device that secures your car without cutting wires, or installing key fobs from an aftermarket. It connects directly to your vehicle's CAN data network and a personalised PIN code is programmed into it using buttons on your steering wheel and the dash. The system stops engine start and can't be bypassed as no RF signals are emitted from the device. This makes it unrecognisable by sophisticated RF scanning or code grabbing techniques that modern thieves employ.

The PIN code sequence can be changed anytime you want to lock out previous drivers. It even comes with an override code in the event of lost sequences. During installation the installer will show how to do this. The system also includes the valet mode feature that can be used to temporarily disable the pin input sequence so that your garage or mechanic can fix the car without having to know the pin code. This is great for customers who want to hand over their car to valet parking or service, but don't want divulge the PIN sequence.

In contrast to Thatcham products that require additional key-fobs in order to operate, Ghost is a discreet system that makes use of the buttons on your car to create an unique and interchangeable PIN code sequence. The sequence is entered via the app for smartphones, meaning that no additional LEDs are displayed and your vehicle is protected with no risk of being disabled by hackers or other technology.

Tested for every vehicle

Contrary to key fobs which require you to press buttons the ghost immobiliser is discretely placed under your dash or steering wheel to make sure you are unaware it's there. The device is connected to the vehicle's CAN data network, and an individual PIN code is inserted using existing buttons on your vehicle. The system will not allow your vehicle to start until this code is entered. This means that thieves cannot clone the keys of your car or use the OBD to hack into it.

Ghost can be installed in all vehicles, including electric vehicles, motorhomes, vans, and bikes. It's also extremely versatile and can be set to disable under different circumstances. For instance, it could be set to enter Valet mode when the vehicle is being taken to a valet parking or servicing company. This means that your vehicle can be operated within a specified 30mph speed limit. The ghost immobiliser will reactivate itself once it is returned to your possession.

The device can also be reset at anytime to your personal PIN number. This is useful in the event that you forget your code or the device is inoperable, meaning that it's effectively as good as new again.

It's also important to note that the device is undetectable to anyone who isn't familiar with it. It does this by analyzing the buttons on your dashboard and steering wheel, and using the data they transmit to determine which button was hit. This makes it a safe and reliable security solution that can't be tampered with by jamming, RF scanning, or door lock pick sets.
