Guard your precious possessions from theft by using the Ghost Immobiliser. This system is discreet & does not require any additional key fobs in order to operate.

The device uses buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels doors, door panels, and the centre console) to create a unique pin code sequence that can be altered up to 20 times. This then authorizes the vehicle to start.

Simple PIN code change process

Many homeowners are upgrading their security because of the rising number of vehicle thefts. There are many different types of aftermarket security devices that range from tracking systems to alarms and immobilisers. However, not all of them are equally effective at protecting your vehicle. A tracking system may assist you in locating your vehicle in the event of it being stolen however it cannot prevent the crime. An immobiliser, on the other hand is exactly what says on the tin: it disables the engine of your car so that it is unable to be started. The Autowatch Ghost is one of the most sophisticated options available, making it virtually impossible for thieves to steal your car.

Using the existing buttons in your car The ghost device is able to create a unique sequence which must be entered prior to the engine can start. This can be done using the heater, window or indicator stalk buttons. There is also a mobile application that can be used as an emergency PIN override, which allows the driver to operate their car without having to use the button sequence. This is especially useful if you need to surrender your car for valet parking or maintenance since the immobiliser will still be active and not deactivated.

The Ghost is an unique and innovative device that works by using the buttons of your vehicle instead of as a standalone device. This means that it is not only a highly effective deterrent against vehicle theft but also a transferable device onto any other vehicles you may own, making it more investment-wise than a traditional steering wheel lock.

Weatherproof, tiny device

The Autowatch ghost immobiliser is a high-tech security system that protects your car from key cloning, hacking & ECU swapping. It is a small, weatherproof device that communicates with the ECU of your vehicle directly over the CAN bus to stop the motor. It can be installed in the vehicle without the need for additional wiring and has been extensively tested to make sure it works with all vehicles. It is also immune to jamming devices that are a popular method used by car thieves to get around immobilisers.

The advantage of using CAN data is that it operates silently in comparison to conventional systems. It is not able to be detected by sophisticated RF scanning and code-grabbing technologies and cannot be recognized by conventional diagnostic tools. The Autowatch Ghost does not use LED indicators, but instead uses buttons on your vehicle, like the steering wheel, centre console, or doors, to create unique sequences for disarming. You can create a sequence that is as long as 20 presses for added security. The iPhone app allows one, authorized connection using the pairing code unique to the audi rs4 ghost installer and the communication between the two devices is encrypted.

The Ghost also stops thieves from stealing the key to a new car or replacing the ECU to bypass the immobiliser to start the engine. The engine will only start if a valid PIN code is entered. It can also be put into valet/service mode for a temporary operation (with specified parameters, such as a 30mph speed limit) to allow you to hand your car over to a valet service or for maintenance without having to enter a PIN code.

Every vehicle is tested

The Autowatch Ghost is the world's first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser that is able to be connected to the existing wiring in your vehicle and connects to your engine control unit (ECU). The device is able to intercept signals and prevent your car from operating normally until you enter a customized code. The system can be activated and deactivated through your smartphone's app without the need for wires.

Standard factory immobilisers for automobiles function through an electronic transponder in the key, which sends a signal to the ECU. The car will start if the correct code is transmitted. However, if the transponder of a different vehicle is used instead, the immobiliser doesn't recognize it. This makes it possible for the vehicle to be started and stolen. A South African company that is at the forefront of car security systems technology has developed the Ghost immobiliser. It guards you against hacking or key cloning and even key theft. The only way thieves could steal your car is physically towing it away and even then, they would not be capable of driving it.

Ghost utilizes the buttons of your car, such as the indicator stalk, steering wheel and door panels to generate an unique, changeable PIN code sequence that needs to be entered before you can use your car. This is done without extra hardware, such as keys fobs. It can take up 20 to 20 presses. It is also unrecognizable by diagnostic equipment and does transmit radio frequency signals, meaning thieves are not able to use sophisticated RF scanners or code-grabbing technologies to detect that an installation has been made.

Unlike physical anti-theft devices like clamps or wheel locks Ghost is covertly integrated into the vehicle so it can't be removed or disabled by thieves and is even more difficult to get rid of than a car alarm, which requires disarming via the use of a button sequence. This makes it an excellent alternative to a GPS tracking device which can be used to locate your vehicle after it's stolen.

Emergency PIN code override

You do not have to look too far on social media to see stories or even videos of vehicles that have been taken by car thieves using the most advanced technology tools available to them. This includes key-cloning devices and hacking devices that allow them to start your vehicle without your original key fobs.

The Ghost immobiliser has been specifically designed to prevent this, and give you an additional layer of security to prevent your vehicle from being targeted by thieves. It creates a unique pin code by pressing the buttons on your steering wheel, door panel and centre console. This unique PIN is entered along with your original key fob to prevent the engine from beginning. The unique override pin is located on a black card which you will receive following your installation. It is simple to remember since there are no LED indicators.

The device is hidden in the vehicle's wiring and doesn't emit any radio signals, which means it can't be detected by modern criminals using diagnostic software that is able to detect the type of security system you have installed. This makes it a fantastic alternative to a tracker.

Contrary to most security systems, which have a relay in the engine bay, these CANBUS Immobilisers connect with the car's ECU and BCM via CAN data bus (brand dependant). This allows them to disable the vehicle completely by sending an electronic block to the ECU and engine.

These systems can also be linked to an analog alarm immobiliser or tracker. This should be specified prior to the installation. They are also service/valet-mode compatible and a good alternative to a tracker if you are you have your car checked for repair at the dealers.

Service/Valet mode

It directly communicates with your car's ECU (Engine Control Unit) through the CAN data circuit. It is completely silent, since it doesn't use radio frequencies or key fobs. It cannot be detected using diagnostics or any other hacking device. It also protects you from adding the new ECU or key to bypass the system because only the PIN number allows the engine to start.

The device is hidden within your car using existing buttons on the steering wheel, the centre console and door panels. A unique & changeable PIN code sequence of up to 20 digits has to be entered before you are able to start your vehicle.
