Autowatch ghost immobiliser range rover Immobiliser Fitter

Car thieves are getting more sophisticated and smarter, therefore technology has had to evolve to keep up. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser uses your vehicle's buttons on the steering wheel and central console to generate an individual pincode sequence that needs to be entered prior to driving your car.

The device is not detectable by thieves, uses CAN data, and has no circuit breaks, making it a secure and easy-to-install system. RCA Cheadle is an approved Ghost immobiliser installer and member of TASSA.

No key fobs or LED indicators

Autowatch Ghost is an immobiliser based on CAN that protects your vehicle from key-cloning and theft. It operates silently and is incorporated into your vehicle's CAN network.

It creates a unique, variable PIN code sequence (up to 20 presses) by pressing the buttons on your car's door and steering wheel which must be entered before you can drive. This is the same method that you use to access mobile banking or your credit card. You can change it at anytime. This can be completed in just a few minutes from your smartphone using the app installed or, if prefer, to use your key fob.

This is a key characteristic of the system that thieves will struggle to break or figure out since it doesn't require any extra electronics like the key fob. Therefore, there is no way that a thief will know what the code is and will be unable to find ways to get around this. It is also inaccessible to 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 is also weatherproof and can be plugged in to the wiring of your vehicle at any point. It won't damage or leave marks on your vehicle and is an ideal choice for those who are concerned about their vehicles and want to increase their security.

This is the best part of all. Because there aren't any signals sent that would make it impossible for thieves to determine that they have hacked your security device and attempt to find ways to get around it. It's an excellent option to protect any car owner, especially since criminals are increasingly targeting the latest cars with their sophisticated technology.

No Radio Signals

Like the previous example, unlike vehicle security devices that require an ID card or specific pin code to disable, the ghost immobiliser works in a silent manner and doesn't emit any radio signals. It is directly connected to the CAN bus, so thieves is unable to being able to detect its presence. The immobiliser will not start your vehicle until you have entered the right PIN sequence. This can only be done by pressing a sequence of buttons in a particular sequence. This can be easily controlled through the app.

This makes it more secure than other immobilisers that use an active system, in which the immobiliser will only shut off the ECU from power only if there is a key present and there is an active signal on board. Those systems can be disabled by tapping the receiver with tags, entering an identification number into an electronic keypad, or pressing a particular sequence of buttons on a display screen. However the ghost immobiliser cannot be disabled by this method in the event that you have your car tow-ed or stolen, you'll not be able to drive it back until you enter the correct pin code.

The ghost immobiliser is also designed to be immune to the most sophisticated forms of theft like the cloning technique. This is because thieves could attempt to duplicate your key fob or even hack into your vehicle's ECU and override its security. However the CAN immobiliser was specifically designed to block this by creating a unique pin code for each time you want to start your car, meaning that it is not possible to start your car with any cloned key or overriding system.

The CAN immobiliser also provides great protection against signal boosters, which are often used by thieves to circumvent standard security systems that are factory-fitted. It is, therefore, one of the most effective and reliable immobilisers we fit at Progressive Parts. This is the reason it is insurance-approved, and it is also a popular choice for customers who need to hand over their car to valet parking or a service. It comes with a 'Service Mode' that allows your car to be driven for a short period without needing the PIN code that can come in handy when you have guests or valet drivers who wish to drive your vehicle.

No Circuit Cuts

In recent years, vehicle theft has increased, as organized criminals employ sophisticated diagnostic tools to detect security systems. The Ghost is designed to fight this by avoiding circuit cuts, it is completely undetectable by any diagnostics and operates in a silent manner on the vehicle's CAN data circuit. It connects to the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) and a unique PIN code is entered which has to be entered before the engine can begin. The thief won't be able to take your vehicle simply by replacing the ECU or by putting in a brand new key. They must first enter the correct PIN code.

The system comes with an option for service that allows your vehicle to be driven and started without the need for a unique PIN. This is great if you're planning to leave your vehicle with valet or mechanic service. You can also turn it on and off as you want to ensure that nobody else will be able to start your vehicle when you aren't there.

No RF Scanning

A standard immobiliser is designed to prevent your vehicle from being driven in the event that you don't have the appropriate key fob or code to start it. It does this by sending a signal to the ECU which is acknowledged by the engine control unit and will shut down any component of the system that are compromised.

Modern thieves are looking to stay one step ahead of automakers and have become more adept at using techniques like key cloning hacking (relay attacks) and even key theft itself. These thieves will often break into your home and fish through your mailbox. They may also take your car keys from inside your ignition or your purse.
