Ghost Immobiliser 2

Protects your vehicle against key cloning and prevents thieves from driving the vehicle using original keys. Our most recent immobiliser connects to your vehicles CAN data network & the unique PIN code needs to be entered in order for the engine to start.

Contrary to trackers Ghost does not transmit radio frequency signals & can't be detected with diagnostic tools. Also, it doesn't have any LED indicators or buttons that can give the impression that it is in your vehicle or van.

Anti-key cloning

The Ghost immobiliser was designed to combat key cloning. This device is connected to your vehicle's CAN data network and creates a unique pin number using the factory buttons in your dashboard and steering. This stops the criminal from being able to start your vehicle. If the incorrect PIN is entered, it will stop your engine from running, making it impossible to drive off with your pride and Joy.

Ghost immobilisers employ an innovative technology that is very difficult for thieves to defeat. The ghost immobiliser unlike physical deterrents, like wheel locks or steering lock that can be cut, is a discrete electronic device. It's not even identified by thieves since it emits no radio signals and is operated in a silent manner.

This next generation immobiliser is able to protect your car from a range of threats including cloned keys, key-hacking and even relay attacks. It is also able to prevent thieves from adding an additional key or replacing your ECU by ensuring that it does not allow the vehicle to start without entering the correct PIN code first.

In contrast to other immobilisers the ghost immobiliser 2 doesn't require any additional remote or key fobs in order to operate. It can be deactivated via the driver's mobile using a simple app. This makes it perfect for those occasions when you have to give your car over to valet parking or for servicing without keys.

The Autowatch Ghost-II represents the latest version of the Ghost immobiliser. It is designed to be as simple and easy to use as possible, but remains as secure as ever. This is achieved by connecting the Ghost-II with the vehicle's CAN data network, which means there are no wires that are able to be hidden or easily found. It also has an integrated feature that allows you to disable your Ghost-II by connecting to the vehicle's Bluetooth and you'll be able to get in and drive, without any hassle.

OBD port hacking

OBD port hacking is the most recent method employed by professional car thieves. Thieves are able to access your vehicle's OBD using the help of a laptop, mobile app, and some cables that can be bought online for less than PS50. Once they have access to your vehicle's OBD port, they can do whatever they want from resetting fault codes and tuning your vehicle to taking away your pride and joy in under a minute.

It can prevent your car from being taken away by requiring a unique PIN sequence to be entered in conjunction with your key fob before you can start the engine or drive away. It communicates with the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) by using the CAN Data Circuit. This is completely undetectable by any scanning technology, RF or code grabbing. It comes with a Service/Valet mode that allows your vehicle to start with no PIN code.

You'll also require a cable with OBD pins that connect to the CAN bus. These cables are available on Amazon/Ebay for around PS50. You'll also require a cable that has OBD pins connected to CAN Bus. These cables can be purchased on eBay or Amazon for PS50. You then need to splice the cable into the wiring harness of your car for example, in the radio wiring harness.

Once the hacker has established a connection to your vehicles OBD port, they can send diagnostics to the system at high baud rates which can cause CAN to crash, and prevent systems within your car from functioning. This could cause the engine to stall, doors to lock and even the brakes to be engaged.

No additional remotes or key fobs are required.

An immobiliser for your car is a great piece of anti theft technology used by billions of modern vehicles around the globe. An aftermarket immobiliser protects your vehicle with engine ECU software that stops vehicles from starting when the transponder is false.

However, it is easy for a thief to get around an immobiliser system when they have access to the code that allows them to disable it. The battery in most key fobs can be removed by removing it which means that a burglar could employ a simple tool take out the immobiliser's circuit board and replace it with a blank. Then they will be in a position to start your car.

The TASSA approved Ghost 2 is an immobiliser that does not require any additional keys or remotes. The immobiliser communicates with the engine ECU (Engine Control Unit) via a discrete quiet CAN data circuit that is unnoticeable with diagnostic tools such as those employed by high-tech thieves. It does not include a traditional keyfob, which has an LED indicator, so it is invisible.

You may need to deactivate autowatch ghost immobiliser fitting's Ghost 2 automatic protection at times like during valet parking or during a service. Ghost CAN immobilisers have a mode called 'Service Mode,' which is activated with just a click of a phone button. The car can still be operated however its maximum speed will be limited to 36mph for added security.

If you'd like more information about the TASSA accredited ghost immobiliser, please contact us today to book an appointment in our workshop. A member of our team will provide a full breakdown of how the system works and provide you with owner's manuals, installation certificates, Ghost 2 emergency card and security assurance.

Simple process to change the PIN code

Ghost is the next-generation device that locks your car without cutting wires, or installing key fobs from an aftermarket. It is directly connected to the vehicle's CAN data network. A personalised PIN can be programmed using buttons on the steering wheel and dash. The system blocks engine start and cannot be bypassed because there are no RF signals emitted from the device. This makes it unrecognisable by sophisticated scans using RF or code-grabbing techniques that modern thieves employ.

The PIN code sequence can be altered whenever you wish to block prior drivers, and it even has an override option in the event of a sequence that is not remembered. During installation the installer will show how to accomplish this. The system includes a valet mode feature that can be used to temporarily disable pin input sequences so that the garage or mechanic can work on the vehicle without having to know the code. This is a great choice for those who don't wish their pin sequence to be revealed but still would like to leave their vehicle with valet parking or service.

Ghost is an unobtrusive system that utilizes the buttons on your car to create an unique and interchangeable PIN sequence. This sequence is entered using the smartphone app, meaning there are no additional LEDs being thrown, and your vehicle is safe from the risk of being disabled by hackers or other technology.

Tested for every vehicle

Unlike key fobs that require you to press buttons on them and a ghost immobiliser can be hidden under your dash or immobilisers steering wheel so that you don't even know it's even there. The device is connected to your car's CAN data networks and a personalised PIN code is inserted by using the buttons already on your car. The system won't permit your car to start until this code is entered. This means that thieves can't duplicate the keys of your car or use the OBD to hack into it.

Ghost is a feature that can be found in all vehicles, including electric cars, vans motorhomes and bikes. Ghost is also extremely flexible and can be set to deactivate under different circumstances. For instance, it can be set to enter Valet mode when the car is taken to a valet parking or a service provider. This permits you to drive your car within the 30mph limit and the ghost immobiliser will start to activate itself when your vehicle is returned to your possession.

The device can be reset at any time using your personal PIN code. This is useful when you forget the code or the device becomes inoperable which means it's like new.

The device is also completely inaccessible to anyone who doesn't know what it is. It does this by running through the buttons on your dashboard and steering wheel and analyzing the data they transmit to identify the exact button that was activated. This makes it a secure and reliable security system that can't be tampered with by jamming, RF scanning or door lock pick sets.
