TASSA Approved

The new TASSA-verified Ghost-II CAN from Autowatch is an innovative device designed to combat the latest car crime trends including key cloning, hacking and other forms of theft. This smart system can connect directly to your vehicle's CAN data network, stopping your vehicle from being driven or started without the proper code. The system is completely undetectable and doesn't utilize radio frequencies or keys, but instead it allows you to create a unique PIN sequence by using the buttons on your vehicle, such as those on the dashboard or steering wheel and can be changed at any time. You can create a PIN as long as 20 presses long to ensure maximum security and a secure emergency code is provided too.

The system communicates with the vehicle's CAN data network to identify when a specific PIN is entered. It then sends a signal back to the vehicle, which disables engine and ignition and shuts down vital components like the starter motor and the fuel pump. The system has a 'valet mode' that lets you deactivate it, preventing valets and employees from driving your car without the correct key.

The Ghost device is different from conventional immobilisers, which can be deactivated by using professional diagnostic tools. It utilizes the onboard network to communicate with ECUs, and it cannot be altered. It is a sealed unit and therefore, it is impossible to monitor the circuits. This makes it nearly impossible for thieves to hear the distinctive click sound that traditional immobiliser relays produce.

This technology is not susceptible to jamming devices used by high-tech thieves, and because it operates on the CAN data network it's also undetectable to any other diagnostic tools. This makes it the perfect anti-theft solution for any modern vehicle.
