Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me

Modern day thieves can rob vehicles in just a minute. They use the cars OBD port to hack the ECU & then duplicate a new key, all from a hidden laptop in the car.

An Autowatch Ghost immobiliser blocks this by transferring a sequence of pin codes through buttons that are already in your vehicle (steering wheel and central console). It is completely invisible to anyone in your car.

There are no key fobs or LED indications to give away its location

If you're looking for a way to stop keyless entry theft or key cloning then look at the ghost immobiliser. This device is designed to protect your vehicle from these types of attacks, by preventing the engine after a valid pin code is entered. This is a highly efficient method of protecting your car, and even car insurance companies recognise it as a safety measure that could help lower the cost of your insurance.

The ghost is connected to your vehicle's CAN data network. Once installed by Car Theft Solutions, it will only work when you enter your personal override code as well as a specific button combination. The engine will not begin if you try to start your vehicle without using the code. The criminal will realize that they've been caught and will likely to get out of the vehicle and flee.

One of the big advantages of this system is that it does not transmit any signals, like the tracker, which means that thieves cannot use RF signal receivers to determine the location of your Ghost unit. It also does not transmit any IR (infrared) signals like the typical remote key fobs for control or trackers do, making it very hard to bypass or hack.

The Ghost also has valet-mode which is activated if you are giving your vehicle over to a valet for parking or service. This disables the immobiliser CAN for 30mph, and enables you to use the vehicle as normal with your key fob or smartphone app. The Ghost will function fully when the vehicle is parked again.

No hacking or cloning

The Autowatch Ghost is one of the most advanced immobilisers on the market. It shields your car from key cloning and hacking making it virtually impossible to take. The only way a thief could steal your car is to physically tow it away. Even then, they won't be able to start the engine.

This is due to the fact that unlike other immobilisers that stop your vehicle from starting if they don't have your fob, this system actually shuts off the engine control unit, ensuring that the vehicle cannot start. The system transmits messages through buttons on the steering wheel, door panel, or the centre console. It is only removed with the correct pin code configuration.

Its sleek and discreet design ensures that it will fit in seamlessly into your vehicle, with no additional keys or LED indications - it runs independently from your original alarm or tracker. It also functions as a bus immobiliser meaning that it sits within the control area network of your vehicle and does not interfere with any existing devices like your vehicle's key fob or alarm.

This exclusive technology is not visible to thieves, unlike other systems that use codes and RF scanning. It only sends pin codes that are silently transmitted through the buttons on your vehicle's steering wheels, door panels, or central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary device that protects your vehicle from keyless entry and smart key theft by generating an individual, personalized pin code that must be entered in order to disable it.

The number of vehicles with keyless entry on the road is increasing. Thieves are getting more sophisticated and are using devices to clone your vehicle which can be bought on the internet or in classifieds under PS15. The key fob that is cloned can be used to gain access to the vehicle. A standard vehicle immobiliser stops the engine from starting only if you have the original key fob, this does not offer enough security and it is easy for criminals to alter or block signals to unlock the vehicle.

Valet mode

A standard immobiliser fitted to your vehicle has an electronic chip which sends a signal when you hit your key fob button, the system then searches for that specific code sent from the key to start the car. If the correct signal isn't received, it will cut off the signal and prevent the engine from beginning. This is the principle behind all aftermarket immobilisers and is a vital security measure to ensure that your car can't be stolen even if a thief has your keys or a device that can enhance the signal of your key fob.

But a ghost immobiliser doesn't just stop it, it goes much further. The system, which is on the CAN bus of your Mercedes, is programmed with a unique PIN that has to be entered to start the vehicle. It is then secured on your app, and no one will ever be able to access it unless they have the exact pin number that you have.

The system will also stop signal jamming, cloning and hacking (which thieves could employ to bypass the immobiliser on your vehicle). If a thief gets their hands on the keys to your car or fob, they won't be able to start your vehicle even if it's parked nearby. They might only steal your car on the flatbed truck, which is highly unlikely.

Valet mode is a handy feature that comes with your ghost immobiliser. When it is activated the glove box as well as trunk of your car will be locked. This means that anyone trying to take your car away will not have anything personal to steal. It also limits the speed of your Tesla so it can't be driven more than 70mph. It will also turn off insane modes. It will also lock your driver profiles and hide your home / work addresses so that no one other person can access the private information on your Tesla dashboard.

If you want to use your car as valet parking, or for service, select the 'Valet/Service' option on the dashboard app. Enter your 4-digit valet code onto the touchscreen. Once you have done this the alarm functions will be bypassed however, it will block the ability to start your car unless a valid pin is entered. This is a great option for those who have to hand over their car to others like taxi drivers or garage mechanics.
