These are the methods thieves use to gain access to vehicles that have standard immobilisers.

An immobiliser works by sending a code to the ECU (electronic control unit). If a wrong code is received and the vehicle is not started because the engine won't start up. While it is possible to disable the ghost immobiliser using software, this is very time-consuming and difficult. The software can only be installed and operated by a authorised installer.

There are no LED indicators and it isn't able to communicate with the engine via the OBD port. It communicates in silence via the CAN data loop.

The system will stop the vehicle from starting until it receives a user defined PIN code sequence. The PIN code is entered via buttons on the steering wheel, door panels or centre console.
