The buttons on the steering wheel and door panels of your car create a unique, re-usable PIN code (up to 20 presses) which must be entered prior to driving. It's the same system that you use to access mobile banking or your credit card. You can change it at anytime. This can be done in a matter of seconds from your smartphone with the app downloaded or, if you prefer, you could use your key fob.

This is a key feature of the system, which thieves will find it difficult to crack or figure out since it doesn't require any additional electronic devices like the key fob. As such, it is impossible that the thief would know the code and will be unable to find ways to get around this. It is also inaccessible to diagnostics, as no radio signals are transmitted and it is not detected by RF scanner technology that was used to spoof security systems in the past.

It does not damage or leave marks on your vehicle which makes it an ideal choice for those who are concerned about their cars and want to increase their security.

This can only be done by pressing a set of buttons in a particular order. This is easily managed by using the application.

This makes it a lot more secure than other immobilisers that use passive systems, where the immobiliser is only able to disconnect the ECU from power when there is a key present and has an active signal on board. The systems can be turned off by pressing the receiver using a tag, entering a pin number into a keypad or pressing a certain sequence of buttons on a display screen. The ghost immobiliser can't be disabled in this manner. If your car is towed away or stolen, you won't be able drive it back until the pin number is entered.

The ghost immobiliser has been made to be resistant to the most sophisticated theft methods, such as copying. This is due to the fact that thieves might try to duplicate your key fob, or even hack your vehicle's ECU to thwart the security. However the CAN immobiliser has been designed to stop this by creating an individual pin code every time you wish to start your car, meaning that it is not possible to start your vehicle with any cloned key or overriding system.

It connects with the vehicle's ECU and an individual pin code is entered. This must be used to start the engine. The criminal won't be able to steal your vehicle by simply replacing the ECU or putting in a new key. They must first enter the correct PIN code.
