Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me

Modern thieves can rob a car in under a minute. They make use of the car's OBD port to hack the ECU & then duplicate a new key, all from an unnoticed laptop inside the car.

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser can prevent this by sending pin codes to the buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels and central console). It is completely inaccessible to anyone in your vehicle.

There are no key fobs or LED indicators to reveal its location

If you're looking for a way to stop keyless entry theft or key cloning then look no further than the ghost immobiliser. This device is designed to safeguard your vehicle from these types of attacks, by blocking the engine after a valid pin code has been entered. This is a highly efficient method of safeguarding your car, and insurance companies recognize it as a safety measure that can reduce the cost of your policy.

The way the ghost works is through connecting to your vehicle's CAN data network, once installed by us at Car Theft Solutions it will only start when you enter the exact sequence of buttons using your unique override code. This means that any attempt to start the vehicle without entering this code will be met with a loud alarm, and the engine will not start. The criminal will then realize that they've been caught and are likely to abandon the vehicle and run off.

One of the main advantages of this system is that it doesn't transmit any signals like a tracker, this means that thieves are unable to use RF signal receivers to pinpoint the location of your Ghost unit. It also doesn't emit any IR (infrared) signals like the standard remote key fobs for control or tracker do, making it very hard to bypass or hack.

The Ghost also comes with the valet-mode, which can be activated if you are transferring your vehicle over to a valet for parking or service. This disables the immobiliser on the CAN for 30mph and allow you to use the vehicle as normal with your key fob or smartphone app. The Ghost will be fully functional when the vehicle is back in its parking spot.

No hacking, cloning or altering

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is one of most advanced on the market. It safeguards your vehicle from hacking and key cloning which makes it almost impossible to steal. The only way a thief could take your vehicle is by physically towing it away, and even then they won't be able to start the engine.

This is because unlike other immobilisers which only stop your vehicle from starting if you do not have a fob, the clever system actually shuts off the engine control unit in order to prevent the vehicle from starting. This system works by sending an alert via buttons on the steering wheel, door panel, or centre console. It can only be disarmed using the proper pin code configuration.

Its sleek and discreet design means that it fits seamlessly into your vehicle without additional keys or LED indications and it operates independently of your original alarm or tracker. It's a CAN bus immobiliser, which means it sits in your vehicle's control network and does no interfere with existing devices like your car's key fob or alarm.

This unique technology is not detectable by thieves, unlike other systems that use codes and RF scanning. It only transmits pin codes that are silently transmitted through the buttons on your car's steering wheel doors, door panels or central console. The Ghost is an innovative device that protects your vehicle against keyless entry and smart key theft by producing a unique, personalised pin code which must be entered to disarm it.

The number of vehicles with keyless entry on the road is increasing. Thieves are becoming sophisticated and are using devices for cloning which can be bought on the internet or in classifieds less than PS15. They can then use this fob that is cloned to gain access to your vehicle. A standard immobiliser for vehicles only stops the engine from running if they have your original key fob. This does not provide enough protection and it is easy for criminals to spoof or jam signals to gain access to the vehicle.

Valet mode

An immobiliser that is standard on your vehicle is an electronic chip which sends a signal when you press your key fob button, the system will then look for that specific code that was sent from the key to start the vehicle. If the proper signal isn't detected, it will cut off the signal and stop the engine from getting started. This is the fundamental principle behind all aftermarket immobilisers and is a crucial security measure to ensure that your vehicle isn't stolen even if a burglar has your keys or a device that could enhance the signal of your key fob.

However, a ghost immobiliser does not only stop that but it also goes a step further. The system, which is located on the CAN Bus of your Mercedes is programmed with an unique PIN code that has to be entered to begin the car. It is then secured on your app, and no one will ever be able to access it unless they have the exact pin that you have.

The system will also stop signal jamming, cloning and hacking (which thieves can employ to bypass the immobiliser on your vehicle). If a thief is able to get their hands on your car keys or key fob, they will not be able to start your vehicle even if it's located nearby. The only way for them to take your car away is to physically transport it off on a flatbed lorry which is highly unlikely.

Valet mode is an excellent feature that is included with your ghost immobiliser. When activated, the glove box and trunk will be locked so that thieves will not have any personal items to take. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla so that it cannot be driven over 70mph. It will also turn off ludicrous modes. It will also lock your driver profiles and hide your home or work addresses so that nobody else can access your private data on your Tesla dashboard.

If you want to use your car for valet parking, or for service, choose the 'Valet/Service' mode in the dashboard app. Enter the 4-digit valet number on the touchscreen. The alarm will cease to be activated, but the car won't begin until you have entered a valid pin. This is ideal for people who need to transfer their vehicle to other people such as taxi drivers and garage mechanics.

While physical deterrents like wheel locks for steering wheels and wheel clamps are a great alternative, they aren't actually considered "theft proof" by thieves because they can be beaten easily with the proper tools. A ghost immobiliser is not bypassable by thieves as it is integrated into the vehicle and, if activated, will disable the starter motor or fuel system.
