Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter

Car thieves are getting smarter and smarter so technology has evolved to keep up. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser works with your vehicle's buttons on the steering wheel and centre console as well as door panels to generate an individual pin code sequence that must be entered before driving your vehicle.

The device is not detectable by thieves, makes use of CAN data and does not have circuit breaks, making it a safe and simple-to-install system. RCA Cheadle are an approved fitter of Ghost immobilisers and members of TASSA.

No key fobs or LED indicators.

Autowatch Ghost is a CAN-based immobiliser that safeguards your vehicle from key-cloning and theft. It is silently operated and is integrated into your vehicle's CAN network.

It generates a unique, changeable 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. It's the same system that you use to access your credit card or mobile banking and can be changed at any point. This can be done in a matter of minutes from your smartphone using the app installed, or if you prefer you could use your key fob.

This is a crucial aspect of the system that thieves will struggle to crack or work out because it doesn't require any additional electronics, like the key fob. Therefore, there is no way the thief would know what the code is and will be unable to find a way around this. It's also inaccessible to tests since there aren't any radio signals being sent out and it isn't detected by RF scanning technology that has been used to spoof security systems in recent years.

It's also weatherproof and fits inside a small, waterproof device that is plugged into the wiring harness of your vehicle at any point within your vehicle. It does not damage or leave marks on your vehicle which makes it an excellent choice for those who are concerned about their vehicles and want to improve their security.

This is the greatest benefit of all - because there aren't any signals being sent, there is no way for thieves to know that they have breached your security device and attempt to find ways of bypassing it. It's a fantastic option for any car owner's security, especially since the modern cars are becoming increasingly targeted by criminals that can benefit from the latest technology in modern vehicles that are becoming more sophisticated.

No Radio Signals

As previously mentioned, unlike other vehicle security devices that require a key fob or a special pin code to turn off, the ghost immobiliser works quietly and does not emit any radio signals. This is due to it connecting directly to the CAN data bus, which means that thieves would have a very difficult time trying to detect its presence in your vehicle. The immobiliser will not start your car until you enter the right PIN sequence. This is only possible by pressing a set of buttons in a certain order. It is easy to manage via the application.

This makes it more secure than immobilisers that utilize an active system. In these systems the immobiliser can only disconnect the ECU in the event that the key is connected to an active signal. These systems can be disabled by pressing the receiver with a tag, typing in a pin number into an electronic keypad, or pressing a certain sequence of buttons on a display screen. However, the ghost immobiliser cannot be disabled this way, so if you have your car tow-ed or stolen, you'll not be allowed to return it until you enter the correct pin code.

The ghost immobiliser has been designed to be resistant to the most sophisticated theft techniques, like cloning. This is because thieves may try to duplicate your key fob, or even hack your vehicle's ECU to thwart the security. However the CAN immobiliser was designed to prevent this from happening, since it generates a unique pin number every time you wish to start your car, meaning that it is not possible to start your car using a cloned key or overriding system.

Additionally, the CAN immobiliser offers excellent protection against signal boosting, which is used by thieves to thwart standard factory-fitted immobilisers. This means that it is one of the most reliable and effective immobilisers that we fit at Progressive Parts. This is why it is insurance-approved, and it is also a favorite among customers who need to give their car for valet parking or another service. It comes with the feature of "Service Mode" that lets you drive your vehicle temporarily without requiring an PIN code. This is helpful when guests or valet drivers are able to drive your vehicle.

No Circuit Cuts

In recent years, vehicle theft has increased as organised criminals use sophisticated diagnostic tools to detect security systems. The Ghost is designed to combat this by avoiding circuit cuts, it is unnoticeable by any diagnostics, and it operates completely silently on the vehicles CAN data circuit. It connects to the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) and a unique pin code is entered which has to be entered before the engine can begin. This means that a thief cannot simply change a key or replace the ECU in order to take your vehicle. They will need to enter the correct pin code first.

The system has an option for service that allows your vehicle to be started and driven without requiring your personal PIN. This is great if you need to leave your vehicle with an auto mechanic or valet service. You can switch it on and off as you like so that nobody else will be able start your vehicle even when you're not there.

The Autowatch Ghost is a discrete device that is the next generation, is connected to the CAN data network inside your vehicle. It also has a PIN number you've created with our team. The PIN code is entered using buttons on the dashboard as well as the steering wheel to shut off the engine of your vehicle. It is a tiny weatherproof device that is unable to be detected using conventional methods. There are no LED indicators and it's completely hidden during the installation and fitting. The Ghost is inaccessible to modern, sophisticated scan RF and code grabbing technology and is also a completely reversible device that can be installed or removed at any point.

No RF Scanning

Standard immobilisers are made to prevent your vehicle from starting in the event that you don't have the correct key fob or the right code. It does this by sending an alarm to the ECU which is recognized by the engine control unit, and shuts down any components in the system that may be compromised.

Modern thieves, however, are always looking to stay ahead of car makers. They have developed new technology such as key cloning (relay attacks) and hacking (relay attacks) as well as key theft. The thieves often resort to breaking into your home and sifting through your letterbox, stealing the car keys from your handbag or even from your ignition.

The Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser that protects you from all these dangers. It operates in complete silence and does not transmit radio signals and is unable to be detected by scanners with RF. It is TASSA tested and endorsed by insurance companies so you can be confident that it is safe to use and won't impact your warranty.

In contrast to an immobiliser fitted by the factory, Ghost II doesn't come with an indicator to indicate status, which means it's inaccessible to diagnostic tools. It is also independent of any other immobilisers, alarms or trackers you might have installed. This makes it a very effective independent solution that is not removed.

It's also simple to use - simply enter your pin code, and the car will start. The immobiliser can also be set to the option of a service valet which can be activated by pressing buttons on the steering wheel or door panels. This is useful if you need to take your car to the garage or when you leave it with a valet parking service. You can also change the pin code however many times you want, to ensure that your vehicle is always safe.
