Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter

Car thieves are getting smarter and smarter so technology has to change to keep up. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser works with your vehicle's buttons on the steering wheel, centre console and door panels to generate an individual pin code sequence that must be entered before driving your vehicle.

The device isn't able to be detected by thieves, makes use of CAN data, and has no circuit breakers, which makes it a secure and easy-to-install system. RCA Cheadle is an approved Ghost immobiliser installer and a member of TASSA.

No key fobs or LED indicators.

The Autowatch ghost vehicle immobiliser is the first aftermarket CAN immobiliser that can protect your vehicle against key-cloning and theft, as well as hacking. It is integrated into the car's CAN data network and is silently operated, so that it is not detected and cannot be disarmed simply by cutting wires.

The buttons on the steering wheel and the door panels of your vehicle generate an individual, reusable PIN code (up to 20 presses) that must be entered prior to driving. It's the same system that you use to access your mobile banking or credit card and can be changed at any point. It can be done in seconds using your smartphone and the app you downloaded. Or, if you prefer to use your keyfob.

This is an important aspect of the system that thieves will find difficult to break or figure out because it doesn't require any additional electronic devices like the key fob. The thief is unable to decipher the code and will have a tough finding a way escape it. It's also unrecognizable by diagnostics as there are no radio signals being sent out and cannot be detected by RF scanning technology that has been used to deceive existing security systems in recent years.

It is also weatherproof and can be plugged in to the vehicle's wiring at any point. As a result, it does not cause any damage or marks to your vehicle, making it a great choice for those who are concerned about their automobiles and want to improve their security.

This is the most important aspect of all - because there aren't any signals being sent that would make it impossible for thieves to determine that they have breached your security device, and seek ways of bypassing it. It's a fantastic accessory to any car's security, especially as the modern cars are becoming increasingly targeted by criminals who can profit from the new technology found in modern vehicles that are becoming more and more sophisticated.

No Radio Signals

As mentioned, unlike other vehicle security devices which require the use of a key fob or special pin code to deactivate the ghost immobiliser, it operates in a silent manner and doesn't emit any radio signals. This is because it connects directly to the CAN data bus, meaning that thieves would have a very difficult time trying to identify its presence in your vehicle. The immobiliser will not start your vehicle until you enter the correct PIN sequence which can only be done via a series of buttons that are pressed in a certain order. This can be easily controlled via the application.

This makes it more secure than immobilisers which employ a passive system. In these systems the immobiliser will only disconnect the ECU in the event that the key is paired with an active signal. The systems can be turned off by pressing the receiver with tags, entering a pin number into the keypad or pressing a particular sequence of buttons on a display screen. The ghost immobiliser, however, is not able to be disabled this way. If your car is stolen or tow-away it will not be able to return it until the pin code is entered.

The ghost immobiliser has been designed to be resistant to the most sophisticated theft techniques, like the cloning technique. This is because thieves could attempt to duplicate your key fob, or even hack into your vehicle's ECU and override its security. However, the CAN immobiliser is designed to prevent this by creating a unique pin number every time you want to start your car, meaning that it will not be possible to start your car using a cloned key or overriding system.

Additionally, the CAN immobiliser is a great protection against signal boosting and is often used by thieves to overcome standard factory-fitted immobilisers. It is therefore one of the most effective and reliable immobilisers we install at Progressive Parts. It is accepted by insurance companies and is also popular with customers who want to hand over their car for valet parking. It comes with a 'Service Mode' that permits your vehicle to be driven temporarily without the need for a PIN, which can come in handy if you have guests or valet drivers who wish to drive your car.

No Circuit Cuts

In recent years, vehicle theft has increased, as organized thieves use sophisticated diagnostics tools to detect security systems. The Ghost is designed to combat this by not making circuit cuts, it is completely undetectable by any diagnostics, and it operates completely in a silent manner on the vehicle's CAN data circuit. It connects to the vehicle's ECU and an individual pin code is entered. This code is used to start the engine. This means that a burglar cannot simply change a key or replace the ECU to steal your vehicle, they will need to enter the correct pin code prior to entering.

The system has a service mode that allows your vehicle to be driven and started without needing your unique PIN. This is ideal the time that your vehicle needs its service, or if you're required to leave the vehicle with a valet business or mechanic. You can also turn it off and on at any time so that no one else will be in a position to start your vehicle, even when you're not there.

The PIN code is entered via buttons on the dashboard and the steering wheel to shut off your vehicle's engine. It's a weatherproof, tiny device that can't be identified by conventional methods, which means that there are no LED indicators and it's completely hidden during installation and fitting. The Ghost is inaccessible to advanced, high-end RF scanning and code-grabbing technology and is also a completely reversible gadget which can be put in place or removed at any point.

No RF Scanning

An immobiliser standard is designed to prevent your vehicle from being driven in the event that you don't have the appropriate key fob or code to activate it. It does this by sending an alarm to the ECU which is recognised by the engine control unit, and shuts down any components in the system that may be compromised.

Modern thieves are trying to stay one step ahead of automobile manufacturers and have become more adept at using techniques like key cloning hacking (relay attacks) and even key theft itself. The thieves are often able to enter your home and take out your letterbox. They might also steal your car keys inside your ignition or from your handbag.

The Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN-bus immobiliser in the world that guards you against all these threats. It connects to the CAN bus, works silently without radio signals and isn't detected by RF scanners used by organised thieves. It's TASSA-certified and approved by insurance providers and insurance companies, so you're assured that it's safe to use and won't impact your warranty.

In contrast to an immobiliser fitted by the factory, Ghost II doesn't come with an indicator for status so it's undetectable by diagnostic tools. It is also independent of any other alarms, immobilisers or trackers you might have installed. This makes it a very effective standalone solution that can't be disabled.

It's easy to use and you only need to enter your pin code and the car will be starting. The immobiliser will also have a service valet mode which can be activated by pressing the buttons on your steering wheel or door panels. This is useful if you wish to leave your car for a valet service or transport it to a garage. You can change the pin code as often as you want to ensure that your vehicle is always secure.
