Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter

The technology has evolved to keep up with the growing sophistication of car thieves. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser uses your car's buttons that are located on the steering wheel and central console to generate an unique pincode sequence which must be entered prior to driving your car.

The device is inaccessible to thieves, as it operates on CAN data and doesn't have circuit cuts so is an extremely secure, easy to install system. RCA Cheadle are an approved installer of Ghost immobilisers and members of TASSA.

No key fobs or LED indicators.

The Autowatch Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN immobiliser that can safeguard your vehicle from key cloning or hacking, as well as key theft. It integrates into the car's CAN data network. It operates in a quiet manner, ensuring that it is not detected and cannot be harmed simply by cutting wires.

The buttons on the steering wheel and on the door panels of your car create an unique, reusable PIN code (up to 20 presses) that must be entered prior to driving. This is the same method that you use to access your mobile banking or credit card and can be changed at any time. It can be done in a matter of seconds using your smartphone and the application you downloaded. If you prefer using your keyfob.

This is an important feature of the system, which thieves will find difficult to break or understand because it doesn't require additional electronics like the key fob. As such, it is impossible that thieves will be able to identify the code and will be unable to find an escape route to this. It is also unrecognizable by diagnostics, as no radio signals are being transmitted and it cannot be detected by RF scanner technology that was used to spoof security systems in the past.

It is also weatherproof and can be connected to the wiring of your vehicle at any time. It won't damage or leave marks on your vehicle, making it a great option for those who are worried about their vehicles and want to improve their security.

The greatest thing about it is that there aren't signals sent. This means that thieves are unable to see whether they have broken the security device, or try to get around it. It's an excellent security feature for any car owner, but especially since criminals are increasingly targeting the latest vehicles with their sophisticated technology.

No Radio Signals

As mentioned, unlike other security devices for vehicles that require an ID card or special pin code to deactivate the ghost immobiliser, it operates silently and does not emit any radio signals. It is directly connected to the CAN bus, which means a thief will have a difficult time identifying its presence. The immobiliser will not start your vehicle until you enter the correct PIN sequence, which can only be accomplished via a series of buttons that are pressed in a particular order - and this is easily managed via the application.

This makes it a lot more secure than other immobilisers that use a passive system, where the immobiliser is only able to disconnect the ECU from power only if the key is present and has an active signal on the board. The systems can be disabled by using a tag or a keypad, by entering a pin code on the keypad or by pressing a specific sequence of buttons. The ghost immobiliser can't be disabled in this manner. If your car is stolen or towed away it will not be able to drive it back until the pin code is entered.

The ghost immobiliser is designed to resist the most sophisticated types of theft, such as cloning. This is because thieves could attempt to duplicate your key fob or even hack into your vehicle's ECU and bypass its security. The CAN immobiliser prevents this by generating an unique pin code each time you start your vehicle. This means that keys that are duplicated or overridden will not work.

The CAN immobiliser also provides great protection against signal boosters, which are used by thieves to bypass standard factory-fitted security systems. It is, therefore, one of the most effective and reliable immobilisers we install at Progressive Parts. It is accepted by insurance companies and is popular with customers who want to surrender their vehicle for valet parking. It has a "Service Mode" that lets you drive your vehicle for a period of time without requiring a PIN code. This is helpful if your guests or valet drivers are able to drive your vehicle.

No Circuit Cuts

Car theft in recent years has become more and more common, with organised thieves employing sophisticated diagnostic devices to identify fitted security systems. The Ghost is designed to combat this by not using circuit cuts, it is completely inaccessible to any diagnostics and works quietly on the vehicles CAN data circuit. It is connected to the vehicle's ECU and it is able to identify a pin code when entered. This is required to start the engine. The criminal won't be able to take your vehicle by simply replacing the ECU or adding a new key. They must first enter the correct PIN code.

The system also has a service valet mode that allows your car to start and drive without the need for your unique PIN. This is ideal for the time that your vehicle needs its maintenance, or if you have to leave the vehicle with a valet business or mechanic. You can also turn it off and on whenever you please so that no-one else will be able to start your vehicle, even if you're not there.
