Ghost Immobiliser 2

Secures your vehicle from key cloning, and stops thieves from driving your vehicle with original keys. Our most recent immobiliser connects to the CAN data network of your vehicle and a unique PIN must be entered to start the engine.

Ghost, unlike trackers, doesn't emit radio frequency signals, and therefore cannot be detected by diagnostic tools. It does not have any LED indicators or buttons that could indicate its presence in your vehicle or van.

Anti-key Cloning

The ghost immobiliser has been designed to stop key hacking and cloning. The device is connected to your vehicle's data network CAN, and creates a unique pin code using the factory buttons on your dashboard and steering. This stops the thief from being able start your vehicle. If the wrong PIN code is entered, the engine isn't able to start which makes it impossible for them to drive away with your pride and joy.

A ghost immobiliser is a new technology that is extremely difficult for thieves to beat. The ghost immobiliser unlike physical deterrents, such as wheel locks and steering lock that can be cut, is a discrete electronic device. It can't even be recognized by thieves as it doesn't emit radio signals and is operated in a silent manner.

The next generation of immobilisers are capable of protecting your vehicle from a myriad of threats like keys that are duplicated, key-hacking, and relay attacks. It can also stop the thief from adding a key or replacing your ECU since it will not allow them to start your car without first entering the correct PIN.

Contrary to other immobilisers, the ghost immobiliser 2 doesn't require a remote or key fobs to operate. It is deactivable by using an app on the smartphone of the driver. This is a great option when you need to give your car to valet parking or maintenance without keys.

The Autowatch Ghost-II represents the latest evolution of Ghost's immobiliser. It is designed to be easy and convenient to use while remaining as secure as possible. This is achieved by integrating the Ghost-II with the vehicle's CAN data network, meaning there aren't any wires that can be hidden or easily spotted. It has a built-in feature which allows users to disable the Ghost-II simply by connecting it to the vehicle's Bluetooth.

OBD port hacking

OBD port hacking is a new technique employed by professional car thieves to steal vehicles. Thieves can gain access to your vehicle's OBD by using the help of a laptop, mobile app, and some cables that can be bought online for less than PS50. Once they have access, they will be able to do anything they want including resetting your vehicle's fault codes to tuning your vehicle, or taking it away in less than a minute.

It can prevent your car from being taken away by requiring a unique PIN code to be entered in conjunction with your key fob before you start the engine or drive away. It communicates with the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) via the CAN Data Circuit. This is completely undetectable by any scanners for RF or code grabbing. It has a Service/Valet Mode that allows your vehicle to start with no PIN code.

To utilize an OBD hacking device you require an operating system that is capable of reading the OBD protocol. This can be bought for less than PS100 on ebay or Amazon. You will also require a cable with OBD pins connected to CAN Bus. These cables are available on eBay or Amazon for PS50. The cable must be connected to the wiring harness of your car, for example the radio wiring harness.

Once the hacker gains access to the OBD port on your vehicle, they will send diagnostics to the system using high baud rate, which will crash the car's CAN, and prevent the system from functioning. This can cause the engine to stop or even lock doors, and even the brakes to activate.

No remotes or keys required

The car ghost immobiliser immobiliser is a fantastic piece of anti-theft technology used by billions modern vehicles all over the world. Utilizing engine ECU software to stop cars from beginning if a false transponder signal is transmitted to it, an aftermarket immobiliser is an excellent way to safeguard your vehicle.

However, it could be easy for thieves to get around an immobiliser system when they have access to the code to deactivate it. A thief could easily remove the battery from most key fobs by squeezing them open. They could then employ an instrument to remove the circuit board inside an immobiliser and replace it with blank. They will then be capable of starting your car.

With the TASSA approved Ghost 2 immobiliser, there are no additional keys or remotes required. The immobiliser connects directly to the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit). This is accomplished through a discrete, silent data loop in the CAN which is not detected by diagnostic tools, such as those used by high-tech thieves. It also does not use a traditional key-fob with LED indicators, which means it's not visible at a glance.

You may need to deactivate Autowatch's Ghost 2 auto protection at times like during valet parking or a service. The ghost CAN immobiliser has a special mode for this, called "Service Mode which can be activated with just the touch of the button on your smartphone. The car can still be operated, but the maximum speed is restricted to 36 mph for added security.

Simple change of PIN code

Ghost is the latest generation of device that protects your vehicle without cutting wires or installing aftermarket key fobs. It connects directly to the vehicles CAN data network and a personalised PIN code is programmed in it using buttons on your steering wheel & the dash. The device doesn't emit RF signals, which means it is not able to be tampered with. This makes it inaccessible to sophisticated RF scanning or code grabbing techniques that modern thieves employ.

The PIN code can be changed to block previous drivers or even include an override code if you forget the sequence. The installer will demonstrate the procedure to accomplish this during installation. The system also has the valet mode feature that can be used to temporarily disable the pin input sequence to allow your garage or mechanic can service the car without having to know the code. This is ideal for customers who want to hand over their car for valet parking or service, but still don't want to divulge the pin sequence.

Unlike Thatcham products which require additional key fobs to operate, Ghost is a discreet system which takes advantage of the buttons in your vehicle to create a unique interchangeable PIN code sequence. This sequence is entered through the app on your smartphone, which means that no additional LEDs are displayed and your vehicle is secure and safe from the possibility of being blocked by hackers or other technology.

Every vehicle is tested

Unlike key fobs that require you to press buttons on them the ghost immobiliser is hidden under your steering wheel or dash so that only you know it's even there. The device is connected to the CAN network of your vehicle and a PIN number can be programmed using buttons on your vehicle. The system will not allow your car to start until this code is entered. This means that thieves can't clone your car's existing keys or access the OBD port to hack into your vehicle.

Ghost can be installed in any vehicle, including electric vehicles, motorhomes, vans, and bikes. It's also incredibly versatile and can be programmed to turn off in various scenarios. It can be programmed to enter Valet mode, for instance, when the vehicle is transported to a valet company or parking company. This permits you to drive your car within a 30mph speed limit, and the ghost immobiliser will start to activate itself when your vehicle is returned to your home.

Another great feature is that the device can be reset to the personalized PIN at any time. This is useful when you forget the code or the device becomes inoperable and is just as good as new.

It is also undetectable by anyone who doesn't even know what it is. This is due to it running through existing buttons on the dashboard of your car and on the steering wheel and uses the data they send to determine which button has been pressed. This makes it a safe and reliable security system that cannot be tampered by RF scanning, jamming, or even a door lock pick set.
