Ghost 2 Immobiliser Installation

A Ghost immobiliser can protect your vehicle from key cloning, hacking and door lock pick. It works by using the vehicles buttons from the factory (such as steering wheel control, door panel and the central console) to create an unique pin code sequence that you can change each time you use it.

It is virtually impossible to predict this sequence, and the vehicle cannot be started. Additionally, it stops signal jamming and device spoofing.

No Key Fobs or LED Indications

Car theft is a massive problem with many thieves targeting vehicles with no keys. If they can intercept the signal from your vehicle keys, or even copy your key fob they could use it to start your car and drive away with it. This is the reason it's a good idea to have an immobiliser fitted to your car or van. It's an easy device that blocks the engine from running without a key or an immobiliser code. There are several different types of immobilisers to choose from. Some are designed to be hidden within your vehicle while others are weatherproof and are able to be installed in a position that is more visible.

One of the best and most common types is a Ghost Immobiliser. It's an weatherproof device that connects to the CAN network of your vehicle. It functions in the same manner as your key fob, but does not feature any LEDs or even an indicator on the steering wheel to indicate its presence. It is installed in your van or car, and communicates with the ECU directly.

It is also not able to be picked by any diagnostic tool for vehicles and will block your vehicle from starting until the correct PIN code is entered. The system is also tamper-proof, which means it is impossible for thieves to remove or modify the ghost unit.

The Ghost Immobiliser is a great solution because it shields your car or van from hacking, key cloning and key theft. This is done using a PIN code only you know. You can select a disarm sequence that you can set yourself and can be as long or as short as you like. You then enter this into the Ghost app on your smartphone when you're planning to drive. The system can be transferred to a new vehicle if you move during the lifetime of ownership.

These systems are usually connected to the OBD port and are able to recognise your key fob or key. However, hackers with high-tech skills have discovered ways to hack these systems and then start the vehicle even if the key isn't present. It is for this reason that it is suggested to install a ghost immobiliser. The device will stop your Mercedes from starting until a certain PIN code is entered. This can be set by you and is only accessible to you and your installer.

No OBD Port Hacking

The ghost immobiliser prevents your vehicle from starting without the proper pin code. It is designed to guard against key cloning, and other types of theft common to.

In contrast to other security systems that feature key-fobs or LED indicators ghost immobilisers are hidden and operate in a silent manner using the CAN data network. This means that thieves can't detect the presence of a ghost immobiliser, even if they are using advanced technology for RF scanning and code grabbing technology.

The device is located in the engine bay, and is connected to the ECU (Engine Control Unit). It connects to factory buttons on your vehicle, allowing you to create an individual button sequence that allows start-up of your car. It is entered through the steering wheel as well as the door ghost immobiliser and tracker panels, or even the centre console. It can be changed at any time and can contain up to 20 digits in the PIN.

Modern cars are filled with CAN bus-related information which means that thieves can use various methods to hack your car and disable the security systems. One method is to use the OBD port (On Board Diagnostics). With the right tools, thieves can access your vehicle's OBD port and utilize a laptop to disable the alarm, create new keys and then drive away. This hack is very efficient and can be done within a matter of minutes.

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser stops this by communicating with the ECU via the CAN data network. This is undetectable by vehicle diagnostics and there are no radio signals, making it almost impossible for thieves to discover and alter the system. The Ghost Immobiliser install is also invulnerable to jamming devices, which could be used to disable other security systems inside your car.

Another fantastic feature of the ghost is the ability to enter it into Service mode, which allows you to hand your car over for valet parking or for servicing without giving anyone keys or buttons. The ghost will then exit Service mode based on speed and duration or by entering the pin code you have set up. This is a great method to safeguard your car from high-tech car thieves while working 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 which means it is not identified by any diagnostic tool that thieves use to scan & hack into modern cars. It does not transmit any radio signals, like a tracker, so it isn't able to be detected by anyone but you or your expert installer.

Ghost immobiliser is different from other car security systems that rely on key fobs, or LED indicators. It utilizes the buttons in your vehicle to create a distinct sequence of disarming. This sequence can be as long or short as you want, 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 hand another person your keys or forget your own PIN for a few hours or so, your vehicle is still safe. This is particularly useful for when you are dropping your vehicle off to be serviced or cleaned, or if you need to bring it to a local garage for repairs - you can still drive it without worrying about someone stealing your vehicle.

The thief-proofing technology of the Ghost device is a real game changer and is a great alternative to traditional physical deterrents like the locking of a steering wheel or wheel clamp. It is harder to deter because it doesn't rely on any external components and doesn't emit any signal.

We don't recommend altering your wiring for CAN data in any way. It is essential that you choose a TASSA authorized Ghost Installations team to carry out your installation. Our team is fully qualified and insured. This provides you with peace of mind knowing your Ghost Car Security system will be a genuine Tassa approved product.

No Key Cloning

The Ghost 2 is the latest immobiliser to protect your Lexus. It safeguards your vehicle from hacking, key-cloning and key theft. It creates a distinct pin code push sequence using the original buttons of your car. Only you are able to start your car. The system is completely concealed, sealed and hidden within the harness of the vehicle, making it completely undetectable to thieves. If a thief did manage to gain access they would be stopped from driving away by speed or entering the PIN code. It can also be put into service mode, which allows you to temporarily start and drive your vehicle. This can be done using the app or a Bluetooth tag that is available separately. It can also be removed at any point.

Online key cloning is very common and allows criminals to steal vehicles without having the original keys. This is why having an immobiliser installed is so important, especially in the event that you have spent a lot on your beloved vehicle.

A ghost immobiliser is very different from the factory immobiliser that comes with your vehicle. The standard factory-fitted immobilisers utilize chips inside the ECU to communicate with a key or fob and then start the car. Ghost immobilisers stop this by adding an additional layer of security to your vehicle, making it impossible how to fit a ghost immobiliser start the engine without having a unique pin number or code sequence being entered. This blocks hacking as well as device spoofing, signal jamming, and other methods to unlock an immobiliser that is factory fitted.

The best part about ghost immobilisers is that it is almost impossible to circumvent it or hack it. This is because the ghost immobiliser is connected to the CAN bus, and it is operated in a way that is not visible to thieves. This is a major benefit because it means that a vehicle that has been stolen won't be allowed to be stolen and again since it won't be able to start.

This also stops a car from being tow away since the Ghost will automatically lock once it reads a trigger speed of 0mph. This is a great benefit because it prevents thieves from being able remove the ghost and tow your car away.
