Ghost 2 Immobiliser Installation

A Ghost immobiliser helps protect your vehicle from key cloning, hacking and door lock picking. It uses the vehicle's factory buttons (such as steering wheel control, door panel and the central console) to create a unique pin code push sequence that can be changed every time you use it.

It is virtually impossible to determine this sequence, and the vehicle can't be started. Also, it prevents the jamming of signals and device spoofing.

No key fobs or LED indicators

Many thieves target vehicles that are keyless. If they can intercept the signal from your car keys, or even duplicate your key fob, they could use it to start your vehicle and drive away with it. This is why it's a great idea to have an immobiliser installed to your car or van. It's a simple device that prevents the engine from starting if the driver doesn't have a key or an immobiliser code. There are a variety of different kinds of immobilisers available. Some are designed to be hidden inside your car whilst others are weatherproof and are able to be installed in a place that is more visible.

One of the best and most well-known kinds is a Ghost Immobiliser. This device is weatherproof and connects to the CAN network of your vehicle. It functions in a similar manner to a key fob, however, it does not have LED indicators or buttons on the steering wheel that signal its presence. It is mounted in your van or car and communicates with the ECU directly.

It is also not able to be picked by any vehicle diagnostic tools and will block your vehicle from starting until the correct PIN code is entered. The system is also tamper-proof, so it's impossible for thieves to take away or alter the ghost unit.

The ghost 2 immobiliser review Immobiliser is an excellent solution to protect your van or car from hacking, key cloning and key theft. This is done by using a pin code that you alone know. You can pick your own sequence of disarming and it can be as short or as long as you like. Then, you enter it into the Ghost application on your phone to begin driving. The system can be transferred to a new vehicle if you switch cars in the course of owning it.

Most of the time, these systems are connected to the OBD port so that it can recognize your fob or key. However, high-tech thieves have found ways to hack these systems and then start the vehicle even when keys are not present. It is for this reason that it is suggested to install a ghost immobiliser. The device can prevent your Mercedes from starting unless a certain PIN code is entered. You can set this, and only you and your installer know it.

No OBD Port Hacking

The ghost immobiliser prevents your car from starting without entering the correct pin code. It is designed to safeguard your vehicle from key cloning as well as other common forms of theft.

Contrary to other security systems which have key-fobs or LED indicators ghost immobilisers are snoopy and operate in a silent manner on the CAN data network. This means that thieves can't detect the presence of a ghost immobiliser even if they are using advanced scans using RF and code-grabbing technology.

The device is in the engine bay, connected to the ECU (Engine Control Unit). It is connected to the buttons on the factory of your vehicle and allows you to create a unique button sequence to start your car. It can be entered through the steering wheel or door ghost immobiliser, tracker panels, or the center console. The PIN can be changed at anytime and can have up to 20 number of digits.

Modern vehicles are flooded with CAN bus data which means that thieves are able to use various methods to gain access to your car and disable its security systems. One method involves the OBD (On Board Diagnostics) port. With the right tools, thieves can access the OBD port in your vehicle and use a laptop in order to deactivate your car's alarm and then code a new key, then drive away. This type of hack is very efficient and can be accomplished within minutes.

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser prevents this from happening by communicating with the ECU via the CAN data network. This system is not detectable by vehicle diagnostics and also there aren't radio waves. It is almost impossible for thieves to find it and then tamper with it. The ghost is also invulnerable to jamming devices, which could be used to disable other security systems within your car.

You can also put the ghost into Service mode. This allows you to give your car away for valet parking or service without giving anyone your keys or buttons fobs. The ghost will then leave Service mode according to speed and duration or by entering the pin code that you have set up. This is an excellent way to safeguard your car from high-tech car thieves at work or on vacation.

No Key Theft

The ghost 2 immobiliser is a CAN bus device which means it is part of the vehicle's CAN data networks so it isn't identified by any diagnostic tool that thieves use to scan & attack modern cars. It doesn't transmit radio signals, similar to the tracker, which means it isn't able to be detected by anyone except you or your certified installer.

In contrast to other security systems for cars that rely on LED indicators or key fobs the Ghost immobiliser works by utilising the buttons in your vehicle (either the steering wheel or the door lock, or dashboard) to create a unique sequence to disarm you decide to use. The sequence can be as short or long as you like, and it needs to be entered before your J can be driven.

You can change your PIN at any time, ensuring that even if you give someone else your keys or forget your own PIN for a few hours or so, your car is still secure. This is especially useful when you're preparing to drop your car off to be cleaned or serviced or you have to bring it to a local garage to be repaired - you can continue driving it without worrying about a criminal stealing your vehicle.

The Ghost device's smart thief-proof technology is an innovative device. It's an excellent alternative to physical deterrents, such as a wheel clamp or steering wheel lock. It is more difficult to deter because it does not use any external components and does not emit any signal.

The only way in which the Ghost can be defeated is by physically altering the wiring of your CAN data network. This is something we do not recommend in any way. This is why it is crucial to ensure that your installation is completed by an approved TASSA Ghost Installations registered team. Our team is certified and insured. This gives you assurance that your Ghost Car Security system will be a genuine Tassa-approved product.

No Key Cloning

The Ghost 2 is a new immobiliser for your Lexus. It protects your car from hacking, key-cloning and key theft. It creates a discrete pin code push sequence that uses the original buttons on your vehicle. Only you are able to start your vehicle. The system is completely concealed, sealed and hidden within the harness of the vehicle, which makes it unnoticeable to thieves. If a thief could gain access to the system, they would be stopped from leaving the vehicle based on the speed of their vehicle or entering the code.

This can be done through the app or by using the Bluetooth tag (sold separately) and can be removed at any point.

Modern day key cloning equipment is extremely easy to buy online, and allows criminals to steal your car without even having the original keys. Installing an immobiliser is crucial particularly if your vehicle is expensive.

A ghost immobiliser differs from the factory immobiliser that comes in your vehicle. Standard factory-fitted immobilisers use a chip inside the ECU to communicate with a key or fob and then start the car. Ghost immobilisers provide an extra layer to your vehicle's security. It makes it impossible for the engine to be started without entering a specific pin number or code. This also stops hacking devices, device spoofing, and signal jamming. These are all methods that can be used to unlock a regular immobiliser that is fitted by the manufacturer.

The best thing about ghost immobilisers is that it is nearly impossible to hack or bypass. This is due to the fact that it is connected to the CAN bus and operates in a manner that isn't visible to thieves. This is a major advantage because it means that a vehicle that was stolen won't be capable of being stolen and again since it won't be able to start.

This also stops a car from being towed away as the Ghost will automatically lock once it reads the trigger speed of 0mph. This is a great advantage, as it prevents thieves from being able to remove your ghost and then take away your car.
