14 Smart Ways To Spend Leftover Ghost Immobiliser Fitting Budget
Get a Ghost Immobiliser Fitted to Protect Your Vehicle
The Autowatch Ghost is a next-generation car immobiliser that protects your vehicle against key (and keyless) theft, cloning, and hacking relays. It is an unobtrusive device that is connected to the the CAN data network of your vehicle and functions quietly.
It operates by using an PIN code sequence comprised of buttons on the steering wheel or console to control it. It can also be activated in service mode, which allows the vehicle to start for temporary use when needed.
No Radio Signals
If you're looking to secure your vehicle from key cloning, hacking and theft, getting a ghost immobiliser fitted is a great way to do it. The system is hidden inside the vehicle, operates in a silent manner and doesn't utilize radio signals to communicate with the car. This makes it difficult for thieves to spot using radar scanners as they are unable to see or hear it.
The device also prevents the cloning process of your car's keyfob by stopping it from communicating with your car's onboard CAN data network. Car thief gangs that are organized typically employ sophisticated codes and RF scanning technology to deactivate and intercept security systems in vehicles. Ghost immobilisers are not detected by thieves since they do not emit any signals from the radio and are integrated into the vehicle's CAN data network. This means that there are no circuit breaks during installation and fitment, making them completely inaccessible.
In addition to stopping your car from beginning in the first place, the ghost immobiliser can also stop your car being moved. This is a great option if you're going to be parking your vehicle in a public place like garages or at a supermarket, or if you're going hire a valet service to park your car for you. This feature can be activated by an app that is simple to use for iOS or Android phones.
With the aid of a GPS tracker your vehicle will also be located. This will help you recover your vehicle if it is stolen. In recent years thieves have been able to override vehicle security systems through hacking the OBD port of the vehicle. This can be avoided by using a ghost immobiliser which communicates directly with the ECU of the vehicle through the data loop of the CAN. This is invisible to hi-tech diagnostics tools, and is totally silent, so that thieves cannot add a new key or replace the ECU to start the car.
The device is also fully reversible and will not impact the warranty of your vehicle. If you're looking to have a ghost immobiliser fitted, look for a TASSA (Tracker and Aftermarket Security Systems Association) approved installer. This will confirm that the installer has passed a string of checks including identification and CRB.

When it comes to safeguarding your vehicle from theft through contactless, an immobiliser ghost is the ideal solution. This discreet device is installed in a hidden location in your vehicle, and functions by preventing your engine from being started unless certain buttons inside your vehicle are pressed in a certain sequence (similar to a PIN code on your smartphone).
Since it doesn't make use of radio frequencies or key fobs to communicate, there aren't indicators or sounds to indicate its presence. It connects to your vehicle via the CAN data system and works in silence and protects your vehicle from thieves who do not want to be seen.

No Key Fobs
Ghost immobilisers don't depend on the key fob to connect with your vehicle. Instead, it uses existing buttons within your car like those on the steering wheel and door panels to generate an individual pin code sequence that you need to enter to start your car. The system is completely undetectable because it doesn't emit radio signals and communicates with the ECU through the CAN data circuit, which means it cannot be detected by diagnostic tools or stolen keys.
This means that even if the thieves have the original key fob, they'll need the exact pin code sequence to start your vehicle. The system also prevents key blocking, signal jamming and device spoofing - all methods employed by thieves to open cars fitted with a factory-fitted immobiliser.

The system can be deactivated remotely through an iOS or Android app. Ghost 2 immobiliser is a fantastic option for those who don't know who holds their keys or where they are parked.
The ghost immobiliser can also protect your vehicle from relay-style frequency amplifying. This is a very popular technique for thieves with high-tech devices who wish to take over PKE equipped vehicles. They can detect the frequency of the keyfob and send it to a coconspirator, who can then use the remote starter to start your car. The system stops this by removing your key fob's battery after a couple of minutes.
The Autowatch Ghost system includes many other features to help ensure that your vehicle is more secure. They include the ability to prevent ECU swapping keys cloning, key swapping, and more. The CAN data network is able to communicate with the ECU and makes it difficult for thieves to replace the ECU or even add keys to bypass the system.
