Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter

The technology has improved to keep up with the ever-increasing sophistication of car thieves. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser works with your vehicle's buttons on the steering wheel as well as the centre console and door panels to make an individual pin code sequence that must be entered prior to driving your car.

The device is undetectable to thieves, it uses CAN data and does not have circuit breaks, making it a very safe, easy to install system. RCA Cheadle is an approved Ghost immobiliser fitter and a member of TASSA.

No Key Fobs or LED Signs

Autowatch Ghost is an immobiliser using CAN that protects your vehicle from key-cloning and theft. It integrates into the vehicle's CAN data networks and operates in a quiet manner, ensuring that it's undetectable and cannot be disabled through simple wire cutting.

It generates a unique, variable PIN code sequence (up to 20 presses) using the buttons on your vehicle's door panels and steering wheel which must be entered before you are able to drive. This is the same method that you use to access mobile banking or your credit card. You can alter it at any time. You can do this in a matter of seconds with your smartphone and the app you downloaded. Or, if you prefer to use your keyfob.

This is an important feature of the system that thieves will be unable to break or figure out since 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 to escape it. It is also undetectable by tests since there aren't any radio signals being transmitted and can't be detected by RF scanning technology that has been used to fool the security systems of the past few years.

It's also weatherproof and fits into a small, waterproof device that can be connected into the vehicle's wiring harness at any time in your vehicle. It doesn't cause any damage or marks to your vehicle - making it a desirable option for people who care about their vehicles and want to improve their security.

This is the greatest benefit of all. Because there are no signals being sent and there is no way for thieves to see that they have hacked your security device and attempt to find ways to bypass it. It's an excellent addition to the security of any car owner, but especially since criminals are focusing their attention on the latest vehicles with their advanced technology.

No Radio Signals

As mentioned, unlike other vehicle security devices which require the use of a key fob or special pin code to turn off the ghost immobiliser, it operates in a silent manner and doesn't emit any radio signals. It is directly connected to the CAN bus, so a thief is unable to finding its presence. The immobiliser will not start your vehicle until you have entered the correct PIN sequence. This is only possible by pressing a set of buttons in a particular order. This can be easily controlled through the application.

This makes it safer than immobilisers that use a passive system. In these systems the immobiliser will only disconnect the ECU if the key is connected to an active signal. The systems can be turned off by tapping on the receiver using tags, entering an identification number into the keypad or pressing a particular sequence of buttons on a display screen. The ghost immobiliser cannot be disabled this way. If your car is stolen or towed away it will not be able to drive it back until the pin code has been entered.

The ghost immobiliser has also been developed to resist the most sophisticated theft methods, such as the cloning technique. This is because thieves could attempt to duplicate your key fob or even hack into your vehicle's ECU and bypass its security. The CAN immobiliser prevents this by generating a unique pin code every time you start your vehicle. This means that keys that are duplicated or overridden are not able to function.

The CAN immobiliser also provides an excellent defense against signal boosters, which are commonly used by thieves to circumvent standard factory-fitted security systems. This makes it one of the most effective and reliable immobilisers we fit at Progressive Parts. This is why it is insurance-approved and is also a favorite among customers who have to give their car to valet parking or a service. It also has a "Service Mode' that allows your vehicle to be driven temporarily without needing the PIN code, which can come in handy when you have guests or valet drivers that want to drive your car.

No Circuit Cuts

In recent years, car theft has increased as organised thieves use sophisticated diagnostics tools to detect security systems. The ghost 2 immobiliser installation is specifically designed specifically for this for this purpose. It cannot be detected by any diagnostics and works in a silent manner with the CAN data circuit of the vehicle. It connects to the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) and a unique pin code is entered which has to be used before the engine can start. This means that thieves cannot simply change a key or replace the ECU in order to steal your vehicle. They'll have to enter the correct pin code prior to entering.

The system also comes with the option of a service valet mode which allows your car stolen with ghost immobiliser (look at this site) to start and drive without the need for your unique PIN. This is great if you need to leave your vehicle with a mechanic or valet service. You can switch it on and off as you want to ensure that nobody else will be able to start your vehicle, even if you are not there.

The Autowatch Ghost is a discrete next-generation device that connects to your vehicle's CAN data network and comes with a personal PIN code you can set with our team. This is then entered through buttons on your steering wheel and dashboard to disable your engine. It's a weatherproof and tiny device that isn't detected by traditional methods, which means there aren't any LED indicators, and it's completely hidden during installation and fitting. The Ghost is undetectable by modern, sophisticated scan RF and code grabbing technology and is also a fully reversible device that can be installed or removed at any time.

No RF Scanning

An immobiliser of standard design is intended to prevent your vehicle from being driven if you don't have the proper key fob or code to activate it. It does this by sending an immobiliser signal to the ECU. The engine control unit recognizes the signal and shuts off any component that is compromised.

Modern thieves, however, are always looking to stay ahead of car manufacturers. They have modified technology such as key cloning (relay attacks) hacking (relay attacks) as well as key theft. The thieves are often resorted to breaking and entering your property and fishing through your letterbox, stealing the keys to your car from your purse or even from inside your ignition.

The Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser that protects your vehicle from all these dangers. It works in silence, without radio signals, and cannot be detected by RF scanners. It's been TASSA-tested and endorsed by insurance companies and insurance companies, so you can be sure that it's safe to use and won't void your warranty.

Unlike a factory-fitted immobiliser, Ghost II doesn't come with an indicator for status so it's inaccessible to diagnostic tools. It's also unaffected by any other alarms, immobilisers or trackers you may have installed. This makes it a very effective standalone solution that can't be removed.

It's also easy to use - just type in your pin code, and the car will start. The immobiliser has an option for service valet which can be activated using the buttons on the steering wheel or the door panels. This is helpful when you want to leave your car with valet service or take it to a garage. You can change the pin code as many times as you like so that your car is secure at all times.
