Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me

Modern day thieves can steal vehicles in less than a minute. They make use of the OBD port of the car to hack into the ECU and then duplicate the key, all using a laptop that is hidden inside the vehicle.

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

No key fobs or LED indicators to reveal its location

If you're looking for a solution to stop keyless entry theft or key cloning then look at the ghost immobiliser. This device is designed to protect your vehicle against these types of attacks, by preventing the engine after a valid pin code has been entered. This is an effective way to protect your car. Insurance companies for cars recognize it as a security feature that could lower the cost of a policy.

The way that the ghost operates is through connecting to your vehicle's CAN data network. Once installed by us at Car Theft Solutions it will only start when you enter a specific button sequence using your personalised override code. The engine will not start in the event that you attempt to start your vehicle without the code. The criminal will then realize that they've been caught and is likely to abandon the vehicle and run off.

This system has the advantage of not transmitting any signals like a tracker. Thieves cannot utilize RF receivers to determine your Ghost device's location. It doesn't emit IR (infrared signals) as do typical remote control key fobs or trackers, making it hard to bypass or hack.

Another benefit of the ghost is that it features the valet mode which can be activated when you give your vehicle for valet parking or servicing. This disables the immobiliser CAN for 30mph, and enables you to use the vehicle normally using your key fob or mobile app. The Ghost will be fully functional when the vehicle is parked again.

No cloning, hacking or altering

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is one of the most advanced immobilisers available. It shields your vehicle from key cloning and hacking and makes it virtually impossible to steal. The only method to steal your car is physically remove it. Even then, they wouldn't be able to start the engine.

This is because unlike other immobilisers which simply stop your vehicle from starting if you do not have a fob, the innovative system actually cuts off the engine control unit to stop the vehicle from starting. The system transmits a message through buttons on the steering wheel, door panel or the centre console. It can only be disarmed with the correct pin code configuration.

Its sleek and subtle design allows it to be seamlessly into your car without the need for additional keys or LED indicators. It runs independently of the factory tracker or alarm. It is a CAN-bus immobiliser, which means that it is part of the control network of your vehicle and does no interfere with existing devices such as your vehicle's key fob or alarm.

This unique technology isn't visible to thieves, unlike other systems that rely on codes grabbing and RF scanning. It simply sends pin codes in a silent manner through the buttons on your car's steering wheel or door panels, or central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary device that protects your vehicle against keyless entry and smart key theft by generating an individual, unique pin code that needs to be entered to disarm it.

The number of vehicles that have no keyless entry in circulation is increasing. Thieves are getting more sophisticated and are using cloning devices which can be bought on the internet or in classifieds less than PS15. The key fob that is cloned can be used to gain access to the vehicle. The standard immobiliser will stop the car from starting if the thief has the original key fob. This isn't enough security and it's not difficult for criminals jam or spoof signals to unlock your vehicle.

Valet mode

Standard immobilisers installed to your car use an electronic chip that sends a signal. The system will then search for the code sent by the key to begin the vehicle. If the proper signal cannot be detected the system will cut off the power and prevent the vehicle from starting. This is the basic principle behind all aftermarket immobilisers and is a vital security measure to ensure that your vehicle cannot be stolen, even if a thief has your keys or a device that could boost your key fob signal.

Ghost immobilisers do more than simply stop this. The system, located on the CAN Bus of your Mercedes, has been programmed with a unique PIN code that has to be entered to start the vehicle. This is then locked in your app, and no one else can access it without the same unique pin that you have.

The system also stops hacking, cloning, and signal jamming (which can be used by thieves to circumvent the immobiliser in your vehicle). This means that if a thief does somehow get hold of your car keys or key fob, they will not be capable of starting your vehicle even if parked within only a few feet of it. The only way for them to get your car away is to physically transport it off on a flatbed lorry, which is incredibly unlikely.

Valet mode is a handy feature that is included with your ghost immobiliser. When it is activated the glove box of your car and trunk will be locked, so that thieves will not be able to take any personal items to carry with them. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla to ensure that it cannot be driven more than 70mph. It will also disable insane modes. It will also hide your home and work addresses as well as lock your driver profiles, and also lock your Tesla dashboard so that nobody else has access to access your private information.

If you wish to use your car for valet parking, or for service, choose the 'Valet/Service mode' on your dashboard app. Enter the 4-digit valet number on the touchscreen. The alarm won't work, but the car won't begin unless you enter a valid pin. This is ideal for those who need to hand their vehicle over to others for repair, such as taxi drivers or garage mechanics.

The first-ever aftermarket immobiliser for CAN buses

The Autowatch Ghost provides unparalleled security and is the only 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 integrating into your vehicle's current interface. It doesn't require remotes or fobs in addition to it but is integrated into the vehicle's CAN data network. This makes it a 'stealth' device.

The device is a circuit board buried in your car's engine control unit (ECU). It functions quietly. Once activated, it will prevent the car from starting unless you enter a PIN. This is the code that you will receive when you request an installation. This number will be needed to activate valet mode, deactivate the alarm, or allow you to drive away in the car of your friend (if they have a Ghost installed too).

It is designed in a way that it is not spotted by anyone who looks at your car's interior. does not send any radio signals, and can only be heard when it's being activated. It can be fitted in a variety of places, making it virtually impossible to spot. It's also low-maintenance, and can be used in combination with other anti-theft devices like trackers (Brand dependent) to offer a complete solution.

Many people opt to put in an immobiliser ghost because they feel that standard security is not enough to stop their joy and pride from being taken. Physical deterrents, such as wheel clamps and steering wheel locks are great alternatives, but they're not considered "theft-proof" by thieves as they can be easily defeated with the right tools. A ghost immobiliser is not accessible to thieves since it is integrated into the vehicle and, if activated will stop the starter motor or fuel system.

Ghost immobilisers can be installed for only PS450 which is less than the cost of other products. It also prevents your vehicle from being stolen.
