Protect Your Vehicle With a ghost immobiliser range rover Immobiliser

With increasing joy and happiness being poured into our vehicles it only makes sense to secure them. The Autowatch Ghost is a discreet vehicle immobiliser that connects to your vehicle's CAN data network. It is controlled by the ECU (your cars brain).

Once it is installed the device will block your car from moving until an appropriate pin code sequence (up to 20 presses) is entered, just as a PIN on your credit card.

No Key Fobs or LED Indications to identify its location

The Ghost Immobiliser is virtually invisible to anyone who enters your vehicle as it does not utilize LED indicators or key fobs. The system utilizes buttons like the centre console and door buttons as well as the steering wheel to generate a unique, changeable pin code sequence that has to be entered before the car starts. The system can be set to require up to 20 press of the buttons before the engine will begin, making it nearly impossible for thieves to duplicate your keys or hack into your vehicle.

Modern car thieves employ professional diagnostic tools in order to determine what security systems are installed on vehicles. The Ghost, however, does not send any signals. Criminals can recognize the kind of security device that is installed in your vehicle using sophisticated technology for RF scanning, code grabbing and relay attack methods. This allows them to tamper with the alarm or immobiliser circuits to disable your system and steal your vehicle.

Contrary to other immobilisers available on the market, the Ghost is integrated in your vehicle's CAN data network, which means it is nearly impossible to hack and bypass. The system is also compatible with a number of modern vehicles which do not come with integrated key fob security. It is also used with electric vehicles, and it can even prevent the vehicle from entering a "service valet" mode.

No Circuit Cuts

The Ghost is an immobiliser for the CAN bus that will protect your vehicle more than any other. Contrary to other aftermarket security devices, it's not connected to key fobs or LEDs and communicates directly with the vehicle's CAN system. It can then block the ECU and stop the engine from running until a unique PIN has been entered via the dash or steering wheel buttons (brand dependent). This means that it is impossible for hackers to hack into the system using relay attacks or other methods and can't simply be disabled by several buttons as with some older systems.

The system also comes with a Service and Valet mode that is activated when the vehicle is in garage to service or valet parking. The vehicle can be started temporarily while working and without the need to enter the pin code or hand over keys. It will then stop itself when you return the vehicle.

This makes the Ghost more secure solution for classic, sports or luxury automobiles that require battery isolation when parked up for extended periods of time. It's also undetectable by modern technology for RF scanning and code grabbing, making it extremely difficult for hackers or thieves to evade.

No RF Scanning

Many car thieves use sophisticated equipment to clone keys and steal vehicles. These devices are readily accessible online and require no skill to operate. These cloning devices do not make use of RF scanning to identify the Ghost immobiliser.

Instead the system uses the buttons inside your car to create an unique pin code push sequence. This is done via the buttons you have on your steering wheel or door panels, or on your centre console. It can also be changed and not a pin number like the remote key fob, which makes it extremely difficult to hack.

The Autowatch Ghost is extremely secure and easy to use. It does not require an iPhone, but can be utilized with a small waterproof tag or an Apple or Android App (sold separately).

This lets the user decide if they would like their alarm or tracker to have priority over CAN bus immobilisers. This is particularly helpful in the event you have a Thatcham approved Tracker fitted since the tracker can be activated prior to the Ghost is activated.

The CANBUS immobilisers make use of the car's CAN data bus to stop the codes that are expected to be sent to the ECU and BCM controllers by the remote keys that came with it This prevents them from starting the car or triggering the engine. These systems can also be used to add an additional layer of security for vehicles with factory remote controls (Brand dependent) and provide additional protection for electric vehicles as well as those with keyless entry.

If this sequence is not entered correctly the car will not start or move at all. Many insurance companies are now seeking this device to be installed as standard, and often leads to a reduction in monthly cost.

It does not require the cutting of any wires to be installed because it is connected to the CAN data bus and operates via the ECU (Engine Control Unit). The device cannot be detected with diagnostic tools that hi-tech thieves use and there is no way to detect the telltale clicking of a conventional relay as in a conventional security device. Ghost Immobilisers can be set to operate in a service mode which allows your vehicle to start without the PIN code. This is beneficial for watch taking it to garages or valet parking service. The PIN code can be changed for additional security at anytime.
