Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me

Modern thieves can rob a car within a matter of minutes. They use the OBD port of the car to hack into the ECU and then duplicate a key, all using a laptop that is hidden inside the vehicle.

An Autowatch Ghost immobiliser blocks this by sending a series of pin codes through buttons on your vehicle (steering wheel and central console). It is completely undetectable to anyone in your vehicle.

No key fobs, or LED indicators to reveal the location of the vehicle.

The ghost immobiliser is the best way to prevent keyless entry theft and key cloning. This device safeguards your vehicle from these kinds of attacks by preventing the engine from running after the proper pin code is entered. This is an effective way to protect your car. Insurance companies for cars consider it a security feature that could lower the cost of a policy.

The ghost is connected to your vehicle's CAN data network. Once it is installed by Car Theft Solutions, it is only functional when you enter your personal override code and a specific button combination. This means that any attempt to start the vehicle without entering this code will be met with a loud alarm, and the engine won't start. The criminal then realizes they've been caught and will likely abandon the vehicle.

One of the major advantages of this system is that it doesn't transmit any signals like the tracker, which means that thieves cannot utilize RF signal receivers in order to pinpoint the location of your Ghost device. It does not emit any IR (infrared signals) like standard remote control key fobs or trackers, making it difficult to hack or bypass.

Another advantage of the ghost is that it features a valet mode that can be activated when you give your vehicle to a valet service or parking. The immobiliser will be disabled CAN for 30mph and allow you to drive just as normal by using your key fob. The Ghost will function fully when the vehicle is returned to its parked position.

No hacking, cloning, or altering

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is one of most advanced on the market. It shields your vehicle from hacking and key cloning which makes it almost impossible to steal. The only way to steal your car is to physically remove it. Even then, they would not be able to start the engine.

This is because unlike other immobilisers which only stop your car from starting if you do not have a fob, installed the innovative system actually cuts off the engine control unit in order to prevent the vehicle from being started. This system works by sending messages through buttons on the steering wheel, door panel or the centre console. It is only disarmed using the correct pin code configuration.

Its sleek and discrete design allows it to fit seamlessly into your vehicle without the necessity of additional keys or LED indicators. It operates independently of your factory alarm or tracker. It's a CAN-bus immobiliser, which means that it sits in the control network of your vehicle and does no interfere with other devices such as your car's key fob or alarm.

Unlike other systems that depend on RF scanning or code grabbing the Ghost's unique technology is indestructible to thieves because it only transmits a silent sequence of pin codes via the buttons that are already present on your vehicle's steering wheel, door panels or central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary device that defends your vehicle from keyless entry and smart key theft by generating an individual, unique pin code which must be entered to disarm it.

With the increase in keyless entry cars on the road The thieves are becoming sophisticated and are using cloning equipment that can be purchased via classifieds or online for installed less than PS15. They can then use the fob that was cloned to gain entry to your vehicle. A standard immobiliser for vehicles only prevents the engine from starting if they have your original key fob. This is not enough security and is easy for criminals to steal or jam signals to gain access to the vehicle.

Valet mode

Standard immobilisers fitted to your car use an electronic chip to send a signal. The system will look for the code that was sent by the key to start the car. If the signal isn't detected, it will cut off the signal and prevent the engine from getting started. This is the basis of all aftermarket car immobilisers. It's an essential step to protect your vehicle from being taken away, even if someone has your keys or a device that could boost the signal of your key fob.

Ghost immobilisers do more than just stop this. The system, which is located on the CAN bus of your Mercedes, is programmed with a unique PIN push sequence that must be entered to start the vehicle. The sequence is then encrypted in your app, and only one else can access it without the same pin as you.

The system will also stop signal jamming, cloning and hacking (which thieves could use to bypass the immobiliser in your car). This means that if a thief does somehow get hold of your car keys or key fob they won't be able to start your car even if they're just only a few feet of it. They may only be able to steal your car onto a flatbed truck, which is highly unlikely.

Valet mode is a standard feature with your ghost immobiliser. When it is activated the glove box as well as trunk of your vehicle will be locked. This means that anyone who tries to steal your car will not have anything personal to steal. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla to ensure it can't be driven over 70mph. It will also disable absurd modes. It will also conceal your home and work addresses, make your driver profiles secure, and also lock your Tesla dashboard so that no one else is able to access the private data.

If you wish to make use of your car for valet parking or service purposes, just select the 'Valet/Service' option on your dashboard app and enter your 4-digit valet number on the touchscreen. After you've done this, the alarm functions will be removed however it will prevent you from starting your vehicle until a valid pin has been entered. This is a great option for those who need to transfer their vehicle to others, such as taxi drivers and garage mechanics.

The first aftermarket CAN-bus immobiliser on the world

The Autowatch Ghost provides unparalleled security and is the only aftermarket CAN-bus immobiliser in the world. It shields your car from key cloning, hacking and even key theft. It does this by working with your vehicle's current interface. It doesn't require remotes or fobs in addition to it but integrates into your vehicle's CAN data network. This makes it a 'stealth' device.

The device is a circuit board that is hidden inside your car's engine control unit (ECU). It operates quietly. Once activated, it'll stop the car from starting unless you enter a PIN. This is a unique number you will receive when you make an appointment for installation. This number will be needed to activate valet mode, deactivate the alarm, or allow you to drive away in the car of a friend (if they have a Ghost installed too).

It is designed in a way that it cannot be detected by anyone who looks inside your car's interior. It does not send any radio signals and can only be heard when it's being activated. It can be placed in a variety of locations, making it nearly impossible to spot. It's also low-maintenance, and can be used in conjunction with other anti-theft systems, such as trackers (Brand dependent) to offer a complete solution.

Many people install ghost immobilisers because they feel that the existing security measures aren't sufficient to protect their pride and joy. While physical deterrents like wheel locks for steering wheels and wheel clamps are a good alternative, they aren't actually considered "theft proof" by thieves because they can be defeated quite easily with the appropriate tools. Ghost immobilisers aren't an easy target for thieves since it is integrated into the vehicle and, if activated would shut down the starter motor as well as the fuel system.

A ghost immobiliser is installed for just PS450 - just a fraction of the price of other products. It also helps stop your vehicle from being stolen.
