17 Reasons You Shouldn't Ignore Ghost Immobiliser Tracker

Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter

Car thieves are getting more sophisticated and smarter, so technology has to change to keep up. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser works with your vehicle's buttons on the steering wheel and centre console as well as door panels to generate a unique pin code sequence that must be entered before driving your car.

The device isn't able to be detected by thieves, uses CAN data, and has no circuit breakers, which makes it a safe and simple-to-install system. RCA Cheadle are an approved fitter of Ghost immobilisers and members of TASSA.

No key fobs or LED indicators.

The Autowatch Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN immobiliser that can safeguard your vehicle from key cloning or hacking, as well as key theft. It operates silently and is integrated into your vehicle's CAN network.

The buttons on the steering wheel and the door panels of your car create a unique, re-usable PIN code (up to 20 presses), which must be entered prior to driving. It's the same system that you use to access your mobile banking or credit card and can be altered at any time. You can do this in seconds with your smartphone and the application you downloaded. Or, if you prefer, you can use your keyfob.

This is a key aspect of the system that thieves will find difficult to break or get rid of as it does not require any extra electronics like the key fob. As such, it is impossible that thieves will know what the code is and will struggle to find a way around this. It is also undetectable through diagnostics since no radio signals are transmitted and it is not detected by RF scanners that were used to fool security systems in the past.

It's also weatherproof and can be plugged into the form of a small, waterproof device that is plugged into the wiring harness of your vehicle at any point in your vehicle. It does not cause any damage or marks to your car - making it a great choice for people who care about their vehicles and want to improve their security.

This is the best part of all - because there aren't any signals sent and there is no way for thieves to see that they have hacked your security device and seek ways of bypassing it. It's a fantastic accessory to any car's security, especially since the newer cars are being targeted by criminals that can take advantage of the new technology in modern vehicles that are becoming more and more sophisticated.

No Radio Signals

As we've mentioned earlier as opposed to other vehicle security devices that require a key fob or pin code, to disable them, the ghost immobiliser operates in a silent manner and doesn't emit radio signals. This is due to it connecting directly to the CAN data bus, which means that thieves would have a difficult time trying to detect its presence in your vehicle. The immobiliser won't be able to start your vehicle until you enter the correct PIN sequence, which is only possible through a number of buttons pressed in a specific order. This can be easily controlled via the app.

This makes it more secure than other immobilisers that use an active system, in which the immobiliser is only able to disconnect the ECU from power when a key is present and there is an active signal on the board. The systems can be disabled with a tag or keypad and by entering a pin number into the keypad, or by pressing a particular sequence of buttons. However the ghost immobiliser can't be disabled by this method, so if you have your vehicle towed or stolen, you will not be capable of driving it back until you enter the correct pin code.

The ghost immobiliser has also been made to be resistant to the most sophisticated theft methods, such as copying. This is because thieves could attempt to duplicate your key fob, or even hack your vehicle's ECU in order to override the security. The CAN immobiliser stops this by generating an individual pin code each when you start your vehicle. This means that keys that are duplicated or overridden are not able to function.

Additionally, the CAN immobiliser is a great protection against signal boosters and is often used by thieves to defeat standard factory-fitted immobilisers. This makes it one of the most efficient and reliable immobilisers that we install at Progressive Parts. This is why it is insurance-approved, and is also a popular choice for customers who have to give their car for valet parking or another service. It has a "Service Mode" that lets you drive your car for a short period of time without requiring PIN codes. This is helpful when guests or valet drivers want to drive your vehicle.

No Circuit Cuts

In recent years, vehicle theft has increased due to organised thieves use sophisticated diagnostics tools to identify security systems. The Ghost is designed to fight this by not making circuit cuts, it is completely unnoticeable by any diagnostics and operates in a silent manner on the vehicle's CAN data circuit. It connects to the vehicle's ECU and a unique pin code is entered. This code is used to start the engine. This means that a burglar can't simply insert a new key or replace the ECU to take your vehicle. They will have to enter the correct pin code first.

The system has an option for service that allows your vehicle to be started and driven without the need for a unique PIN. This is perfect for when you're planning to leave your vehicle with an auto mechanic or valet service.

No RF Scanning

A standard immobiliser is designed to stop your car from being driven if you don't have the appropriate key fob or code to turn it on. It does this by sending an alarm to the ECU, which is then recognized by the engine control unit, and shuts down any components in the system that could be compromised.
