Protect Your Pride And Joy With The Ghost Immobiliser

Guard your precious possessions from theft by using the ghost immobilise Immobiliser. It's discreet and does not require additional key fobs.

The device utilizes buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels doors, door panels and the centre console) to create a unique pin code sequence that can be modified up to 20 times. This will then authorize the startup of your vehicle.

Simple change of PIN code

Many owners are upgrading their security due to the increase in vehicle theft. There are a myriad of security devices that are sold aftermarket from tracking systems to immobilisers and alarms. Not all of them are equally effective at protecting your car. A tracking system can assist you in locating your car if it is stolen however it cannot prevent the crime. Immobilisers, on the contrary are exactly what they state on the tin: they shut down the motor of your car to prevent it from being started. The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is one of the most advanced options on the market, making it almost impossible for thieves to steal your vehicle.

The ghost device uses the buttons on your car to create a unique sequence which must be entered to allow the engine to start. This can be accomplished by using the window, heater or indicator stalk buttons. There is also a mobile app that can be used as an emergency PIN override, which allows the driver to operate their car without the button sequence. This is a great option when you wish to donate your car to valet parking or maintenance. The immobiliser remains active.

The Ghost is an innovative and unique device that operates with the buttons on your vehicle rather than as a standalone device. This means it's not just a highly effective deterrent against vehicle theft but also a transferable device to any future vehicles you may own, making it much more of an investment than the traditional lock on your steering wheel.

Weatherproof tiny device

The Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser is an advanced security system that protects your vehicle from key cloning and hacking. It also stops ECU swapping. It is a weatherproof tiny device that communicates directly with your vehicle's ECU via the CAN data bus to shut down the engine. It can be plugged into the vehicle without wiring, and has been thoroughly tested to ensure compatibility with all vehicles. It also is resistant to jamming devices, which is a common technique used by thieves to get around the immobilisers in place.

The benefit of using CAN data is that it operates silently when compared to conventional systems. It cannot be detected using sophisticated RF scanning and code-grabbing technologies and cannot be recognized by conventional diagnostic tools. The Autowatch Ghost does not use LED indicators, but instead uses buttons in your vehicle, such as the steering wheel, centre console, or door panels, to create an unique sequence of disarming. You can even make this sequence up to 20 presses long to increase security. The iPhone app is limited to one connection, using an individual pairing code for the Ghost. All communication between the two devices is protected.

The Ghost 2 immobiliser will stop car thieves from putting in a new ignition key or replacing the ECU to bypass the immobiliser. The engine can only be started when a valid PIN code is entered. It is also possible to put it in valet/service mode to allow for temporary operation (with specified parameters, such as a 30mph speed limit) to allow you to give your car to a valet service or for servicing without the need to enter a pin code.

Each vehicle is tested

The Autowatch Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser that connects to the existing wiring in your vehicle and connects to your engine control unit (ECU). The device snoops on electronic signals to block your car's system from performing its normal startup routine until you input the passcode you have created. The system can be turned on and off using your own smartphone application without the need for wires.

The standard factory immobilisers work with a transponder which is embedded in the key. It transmits a message to the ECU. If the correct code is transmitted, the car will start however if the transponder is swapped with one from another vehicle the immobiliser won't recognize it. This allows the vehicle to be stolen and then started. The Ghost immobiliser was created by a South African company at the forefront of vehicle security systems technology. It shields you from key cloning or hacking, and even key theft. Only by physically towing your vehicle away from thieves could they take it away, and they would still not be able to drive the vehicle.

Ghost makes use of buttons in your vehicle, such as the indicator stalk, the steering wheel, and doors, to generate a unique PIN code that must be entered in order to use your vehicle. This is performed without the need for extra hardware such as a key-fob and can be as long as 20 presses long. It is also undetectable to diagnostics equipment and does not transmit radio frequency signals, so thieves are not able to make use of sophisticated RF scanning or code grabbing technology to detect that security systems have been installed.

ghost immobiliser birmingham is harder to remove than car alarms, which require disarming with a series of buttons. This makes it an excellent supplement to a GPS tracker that can assist in locating your car after it has been taken.

Override of emergency PIN code

You don't have to look long on social media sites to find stories or videos of cars that have been stolen using the most advanced technology tools. This includes key-cloning devices as well as hacking tools that allow them to start the car without the original keys.

Our Ghost immobiliser combats this issue and offers an additional layer of security to prevent your vehicle from being stolen when it is targeted by thieves. It creates a unique pin code push sequence using the buttons you have on the steering wheel, door panel and centre console. This unique PIN must be entered in conjunction with your original key fob to prevent the vehicle from beginning. The unique override pin can be found on a black card that you will receive after the installation. It is simple to remember because there are no LED indicators.

The device is hidden within the vehicle's wiring and does not emit radio signals, so it cannot be recognized by thieves with diagnostic software that can recognise what is ghost immobiliser type of security system you have installed. This makes it a fantastic alternative to an alarm.

Unlike other security systems, which rely on a relay in the engine bay, these immobilisers CANBUS communicate through CAN databus (brand dependent) with the ECU and BCM of the vehicle. This allows them to disable the vehicle completely by sending an electronic block of commands for both the ECU and the engine.

It is also possible to connect a separate analog immobiliser, alarm, or tracker with these systems, however this must be specified before installing the device. They are also service/valet mode-compatible and are a great alternative to a tracker having your car in for repairs to an electrical issue at the dealership.

Service/Valet Mode

In recent years, there has been an increase in vehicles being stolen with the owners' keys. With the ease of access to key cloning tools and door lock pick sets, it is now easier than ever for thieves to take your joy and pride. We've developed the Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser to combat this. It prevents your car from being driven, even if your keys have been cloned.

It directly communicates with your cars ECU (Engine Control Unit) via the CAN data circuit. It is completely silent, because it does not utilize radio frequencies or key fobs. This means it isn't detected by diagnostics or any other car hacking devices. It also stops you from adding the new ECU or key to circumvent the system, as only the PIN code allows the engine to start.

The device is hidden in your car and is accessible via buttons on your steering wheel, center console and door panels. Before you can start your car, you need to enter a unique, changeable PIN number that is up to 20 numbers.

This is the first aftermarket CAN-bus immobiliser for the market that has been designed. It will stop your vehicle from being driven or even started if you don't enter a PIN number first. If you are driving away with the device in motion it will display an indicator on your dashboard which will flash continuously for approximately 300m. Entering your PIN code will disable the anti-hijack. Your car will continue to function normally. If you don't enter your PIN in this moment, the indicator will continue to flash and will require a new pin code every time you attempt to start your car.
