Autowatch Ghost II Immobiliser Installation

Ghost immobilisers are among the most advanced features in vehicle security. They are revolutionary in how they protect your vehicle from hacking, key-cloning and even wheel jacking.

The system has an unique disarm sequence which requires the correct PIN code to start your vehicle. This is accomplished by pressing the buttons on your dashboard or steering wheel.

TASSA Approved

The new TASSA-verified Ghost-II CAN from autowatch ghost installation is a groundbreaking device that is designed to tackle the latest car crime trends including key cloning, hacking and other forms of theft. The smart system is connected directly to the onboard CAN network of your vehicle, and prevents it from being started or driven if you don't have the proper code. The system is completely undetectable, and doesn't make use of radio frequencies or an electronic key fob, rather it allows you to create a unique PIN sequence by using existing buttons in your vehicle, like those on the dashboard or steering wheel that you can alter at any time. The PIN can be up to 20 presses long for maximum security. A secure emergency code is also provided.

The system communicates with the vehicle's CAN data network to identify when the PIN has been entered. The system then sends a signal to the vehicle which disables the ignition and engine, as well as shutting off crucial components such as the starter motor as well as the fuel pump. The system has a 'valet mode' that allows you to deactivate it and prevent valets or staff from driving your car without the right key.

In contrast to traditional immobiliser relays which can be disabled with readily available diagnostic tools for professionals The Ghost device makes use of the onboard data network to communicate with the ECU and cannot be tampered with. It's a sealed device, which means it is impossible to monitor the circuits, which makes it near impossible for thieves to detect the clicking noise that traditional immobiliser relays emit.

This technology is not vulnerable to jamming devices used by high-tech thieves, and because it works on the CAN data network it's also not detectable by other diagnostic tools. This makes it the ideal anti-theft option for any modern vehicle.

Insurance Approved

The Ghost is a security gadget that is installed aftermarket and protects you from the kinds of thieves interested in stealing vehicles. It prevents the engine from starting until a specific sequence of buttons is activated. This sequence is only recognized by you, so when your car is broken into, thieves will not be able to start it and are likely to leave your vehicle alone in fear of being found. Ghosts have a silent mode that turns off the vehicle when it is not in use. It can be shut off by pressing the button.

The system also communicates with the ECU of your vehicle through the CAN data loop which is totally inaudible for diagnostic tools. This means a thief can't simply insert a new key or change the ECU to disable the Ghost. The system will only start your car by entering the correct pin code. This unique PIN is only available to you and can be changed at anytime.

The Ghost is an immobiliser that is able to be added to any vehicle without the requirement for additional key fobs or wiring. It is directly connected to the vehicle's CAN data network, and the personal PIN code of your choice is programmed into it using the buttons on the steering wheel and dashboard. This code prevents the vehicle from being started unless the correct sequence of events has been selected first. In the event that the code is guessed there are emergency codes that can be reset using your mobile phone. In addition to this there is a simple application available for iOS & Android that minimises the need to enter your pin every occasion, ensuring more secure and hassle-free security.

Distinction

Unlike a GPS tracker which only assists in locating your vehicle after it's been taken away, an immobiliser system stops the vehicle from being taken in the first place. This is achieved by preventing the engine from starting until the correct code is retrieved from the key fob or via an app downloaded to the smartphone. This is a great method to prevent wheel-jacking and other types of theft, as the thief has no choice but to leave the car alone or risk being arrested.

The ghost immobiliser is a weatherproof tiny device that is tucked away into the wiring harness inside your vehicle.

Contrary to other security systems that can be activated by entering a incorrect code or entering the wrong code, the Ghost will not allow your vehicle from starting until you put the correct passcode.

The Ghost will remain in'service mode' until you activate it by pressing the same set of buttons you used to arm it (this is possible by visiting your dealer for warranty or maintenance work).
