This is because unlike other immobilisers that stop the car from starting if they don't have your fob, this clever system actually disconnects the engine control unit, ensuring that the vehicle cannot be started. It does this by sending a signal to buttons on your steering wheel, door panel or centre console that can only be disarmed by entering the correct pin code, it is this feature that makes the ghost immobiliser birmingham impossible to break.

Its sleek and discreet design means that it fits into your vehicle seamlessly without any additional keys or LED indications It operates on its own, independent of your factory alarm or tracker.

Contrary to other systems that rely on codes grabbing or RF scanning this technology is undetectable to thieves since it sends an unobtrusive sequence of pin codes via the buttons on your vehicle's steering wheel, door panels or central console.

The number of vehicles with keyless entry in circulation is increasing. Thieves are becoming sophisticated and employ cloning devices that can be purchased through classifieds or online for less than PS15. The cloned key fob can be used to gain access to the vehicle. The standard immobiliser will stop the car from starting if the thief has the original key fob. This isn't enough security, and it's easy for criminals to jam or fake signals to unlock your car.

Valet mode

An immobiliser that is standard on your vehicle is an electronic chip that sends the signal when you hit your key fob button. The system will then look for that specific code that was sent from the key to start the car. If the signal isn't received, it will simply cut off and stop the engine from getting started. This is the principle behind all aftermarket immobilisers and is a crucial security measure to ensure that your vehicle isn't stolen even if someone else has your keys or a device that can boost your key fob signal.

But a ghost immobiliser doesn't just stop it, it goes much further. The system, which sits on the CAN bus of your Mercedes is programmed with a unique PIN code push sequence that must be entered to start the vehicle. This is then locked on your app, and no one will ever be able to access it unless they have the same unique pin that you have.

The system will also stop hacking, cloning and signal jamming (which could be used by thieves to circumvent the immobiliser on your vehicle). This means that if a thief does somehow get hold of your car keys or key fob, they won't be in a position to start your vehicle, even if they are parked within the distance of a few feet. The only way to get your car away is to physically transport it off on a flatbed lorry which is extremely unlikely.

Valet mode comes as a standard feature with your ghost immobiliser. When it is activated the glove box and trunk will be locked, so that anyone who steals your car won't have any personal belongings to carry with them. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla so that it is unable to be driven at speeds of more than 70mph and will disable ludicrous mode. It will also conceal your work and home addresses as well as lock your driver profiles, and secure your Tesla dashboard so that no one else is able to access your private information.
