Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter

Car thieves are becoming more sophisticated and smarter, therefore technology has had to evolve to keep up. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser uses your car's buttons that are located on the steering wheel and centre console to create a unique pincode sequence which must be entered prior to driving your vehicle.

The device isn't easily detected by thieves, uses CAN data and has no circuit breakers, making it a safe and easy-to-install system. RCA Cheadle is an approved Ghost immobiliser installer and member of TASSA.

No Key Fobs or LED Indicators

The Autowatch Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN-based immobiliser designed to protect your vehicle against key-cloning, hacking and key theft. It is integrated into your vehicle's CAN data networks and operates silently so that it's undetectable and cannot be disabled through simple wire cutting.

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

This is an important feature of the system that thieves will find difficult to break or figure out because it doesn't require any extra electronics like the key fob. The thief cannot guess the code and will have a hard finding a way get around it. It is also undetectable through diagnostics, as there are no radio signals being sent and it cannot be detected by RF scanners that were used to spoof security systems in the past.

It is also completely weatherproof and fits into the form of a small, waterproof device that can be connected into the wiring harness of your vehicle at any point within your vehicle. This means it doesn't cause any damage or marks to your vehicle - making it a great choice for those who are concerned about their vehicles and want to improve their security.

The greatest thing about it is that there aren't any signals sent. This means that thieves can't tell whether they have broken the security device or try to bypass it. It's a great addition to any car owner's security, particularly as newer cars are being targeted by criminals who can benefit from the latest technology in modern vehicles that are becoming more sophisticated.

No Radio Signals

As mentioned, unlike other security devices for vehicles that require a key fob or a specific pin code to disable, the ghost immobiliser works silently and does not emit any radio signals. It is connected directly to the CAN bus, which means a thief will have a hard time being able to detect its presence. The immobiliser won't be able to start your vehicle unless you enter the correct PIN sequence which can only be done through a number of buttons pressed in a specific order - and this is easily controlled via the application.

This makes it more secure than immobilisers that employ an active system. In these systems, the immobiliser will only shut off the ECU when the key is present with an active signal. The systems can be disabled with a tag or keypad and by entering a pin number into the keypad or by pressing a particular sequence of buttons. The ghost immobiliser can't be disabled in this manner. If your vehicle is stolen or tow-away it will not be able to return it until the pin number is entered.

The ghost immobiliser has also been designed to be resistant to the most sophisticated theft techniques, such as copying. This is because thieves could attempt to duplicate your key fob or even hack into your vehicle's ECU and bypass its security. However, the CAN immobiliser is designed to prevent this from happening, since it generates a unique pin code for each time you want to start your car, meaning that it won't be possible to start your vehicle with any cloned key or overriding system.

The CAN immobiliser provides great protection against signal boosters, which are often used by thieves to circumvent standard security systems that are factory-fitted. This means it is one of the most reliable and effective immobilisers that we install at Progressive Parts. It is endorsed by insurance companies and is well-liked by customers who want to hand over their car to valet parking. It has a 'Service Mode' that allows your car to be driven for a short period without the need for a PIN, which can come in handy if you have guests or valet drivers that want to drive your vehicle.

No Circuit Cuts

The theft of cars in recent years has become more and more frequent, with organized thieves using sophisticated diagnostics tools to detect fitted security systems. The Ghost is designed to combat this by not making circuit cuts, it is unnoticeable by any diagnostics and operates silently on the vehicles CAN data circuit. It connects to the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) and a unique pin code is entered that must be entered before the engine can begin. This means that thieves cannot just add a new key or replace the ECU in order to take your vehicle. They will have to enter the correct pin code before they can start.

The system features an option for service that allows your vehicle to be driven and started without the need for a unique PIN. This is ideal when your vehicle is getting its services, or when you need to leave it with a valet service or mechanic. You can also turn the switch on and off at any time to ensure that nobody else will be capable of starting your car even if you're there.

The Autowatch Ghost is a discrete, next generation device that is connected to the CAN data network in your vehicle and comes with a personal PIN code you can set with our team. The code is then entered via buttons on your steering wheel and dashboard to disable your engine. It's a weatherproof and tiny device that isn't identified by traditional methods, meaning there aren't any LED indicators and it's completely hidden away during the installation and fitting. The Ghost is inaccessible to advanced, high-end scan RF and code grabbing technology and is also a completely reversible device that can be fitted or removed at any time.

No RF Scanning

An immobiliser of standard design is intended to stop your car from being driven when you don't have proper key fob or code to turn it on. It does this by sending an immobiliser signal to the ECU. The engine control unit will then detect the signal and shuts down any component that is compromised.

Modern thieves are trying to stay one step ahead of automakers and have been able to use technology like key cloning, hacking (relay attacks) and even key theft itself. The thieves often resort to breaking into your home and sifting through your mailbox, stealing keys to your car from your bag or even from inside your ignition.

The Ghost is the world's first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser that protects your vehicle from all of these dangers. It connects to the CAN bus, works silently with no radio signals and cannot be identified by RF scanners utilized by organized criminals. It has been TASSA-verified and approved by insurance providers So you're assured that it's safe to use and won't void your warranty.

Ghost II is not detectable by diagnostic tools, unlike an immobiliser installed in the factory. It's also not dependent on any other immobilisers, alarms or trackers you may have installed. This makes it a highly effective standalone solution that can't be removed.

It's also easy to use - just type in your pin code, and your car will begin. The immobiliser also has the ability to service valet that can be activated using the buttons on the steering wheel or the door panels. This is useful if you need to take your vehicle to the garage, or when leaving it with a valet parking company. You can change the pin code as many times as you like to ensure that your vehicle is always secure.
