The Infrequently Known Benefits To Ghost Immobiliser

Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me

Modern thieves can steal a vehicle in under a minute. They use the OBD port of the vehicle to hack into the ECU and then duplicate a key using an unprotected laptop inside the vehicle.

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser can prevent this by sending pin codes to buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels & central console). It is completely inaccessible to anyone inside your vehicle.

No key fobs or LED indicators, or any other ways of locating the vehicle are available.

If you're looking for a method to stop keyless entry theft or key cloning, then you should look at the ghost immobiliser. This device protects your vehicle from these kinds of attacks by blocking the engine after the valid pin code has been entered. This is an effective way to protect your car ghost immobiliser. Even car insurance companies recognize it as a security feature that can reduce the cost of a policy.

The ghost connects to the CAN data network of your vehicle. Once installed by Car Theft Solutions, it will only work if you enter your personal override code as well as a specific button combination. This means that any attempt to start the vehicle without entering this code will be greeted with a loud siren, and the engine won't start. The thief will then realize that they've been caught and will most likely leave the vehicle.

One of the main advantages of this system is that it doesn't transmit any signals like a tracker, this means that thieves are unable to utilize RF signal receivers in order to pinpoint the location of your Ghost device. It also does not send out any IR (infrared) signals like the usual remote key fobs to control the device or tracker do, which makes it very hard to bypass or hack.

Another benefit of the ghost is that it features an option for valet parking that can be activated when you hand your vehicle over to valet parking or for servicing. This will disable the immobiliser CAN for 30mph and allow you to use your vehicle in normal fashion with your key fob. If the vehicle is parked up again the Ghost will return to full function.

No hacking, cloning or altering

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is one of the most advanced models on the market. It safeguards your vehicle from hacking and key cloning which makes it almost impossible to take. The only way that a burglar could take your vehicle is to physically tow it away, and even then they would not be in a position to start the engine.

This is because unlike other immobilisers that stop the car from starting if you do not have your fob, this system actually shuts off your engine control unit so that the vehicle can't start. The system transmits messages through buttons on the steering wheel, door panel, or the centre console. It can only be disarmed using the correct pin code configuration.

Its discreet and sleek design allows it to fit seamlessly into your vehicle without additional keys or LED indicators and it operates independently of your original alarm or tracker. It is also a CAN bus immobiliser, which means it sits within your vehicle's control area network and is not interfering with other devices, such as the built-in key fob or alarm.

This exclusive technology is not detectable by thieves unlike other systems that use codes grabbing and RF scanning. It simply sends pin codes in a silent manner through the buttons on your car's steering wheel, door panels, or central console. The Ghost is an innovative device that protects your vehicle against keyless entry and smart key theft by producing an individual, unique pin code that needs to be entered to deactivate it.

With the increase in keyless entry cars that are on the road The thieves are becoming sophisticated and utilizing cloning devices that can be purchased on the internet or in the classifieds for less than PS15. The cloned key fob can be used to gain access to the vehicle. The standard immobiliser can only stop the vehicle from starting if the criminal has your original key fob. This is not enough protection and it's not difficult for criminals to jam or fake signals to unlock your vehicle.

Valet mode

Standard immobilisers that are fitted to your vehicle use an electronic chip to send a signal. The system will then search for the code sent by the key to start the vehicle. If the signal isn't received, it will cut off and prevent the engine from getting started. This is the principle behind all immobilisers that are sold aftermarket. It is a vital step to protect your vehicle from being stolen, even if someone has your keys or an accessory that can boost the signal of your key fob.

However, a ghost immobiliser does not only stop it from happening, it goes much further. The system, which is located on the CAN bus of your Mercedes, is programmed with a unique pin code that has to be entered to start the vehicle. This is then locked on your app, and no one can ever access it unless they have the same pin number that you have.

The system also stops cloning, hacking and signal jamming (which can be used by thieves to bypass the immobiliser inside your car). This means that if a thief manages to steal your car keys or your key fob, they will not be in a position to start your car, even if they are in the vicinity of a few feet of it. They might only steal your car onto flatbed trucks, which is highly unlikely.

Valet mode is a useful feature that comes with your ghost immobiliser. When activated, the glove box of your car and trunk will be locked, so that anyone stealing your car will not have any personal items to take with them. It also limits the speed of your Tesla so that it can't be driven at over 70mph and will disable ludicrous mode. It will also hide your home and work addresses and make your driver profiles secure, and lock your Tesla dashboard to ensure that no one else can access your private information.

If you would like to make use of your car for valet parking or other service-related purposes, simply select the 'Valet/Service' mode on your dashboard application and then enter your 4-digit valet pin on the touchscreen. The alarm will cease to be activated, but the car won't start unless you enter an authentic pin. This is a great option for those who have to hand over their vehicle to other people such as taxi drivers and garage mechanics.
