Integrated into the vehicle's buttons, they provide protection against key hacking, cloning and ECU swapping and even key theft. Ghost immobilisers stop the engine from starting unless you enter a pre-determined PIN code along with your key fob. The PIN code can be as long as 20 presses long, and is alterable by the driver through an app or by the vehicle's buttons. If you forget your pin or a button breaks, or if you sell your car or sell it, you can use an emergency PIN code that is unique to each device to reset the system.

Ghost immobilisers come with the benefit of being unnoticeable by devices for diagnostics and do not emit radio frequency signals. This means that thieves are unable to use sophisticated scanning techniques to detect an immobiliser. They also make use of the CAN data network, which requires no wire cutting upon installation and is quieter than other immobilisers.
