How Ghost Immobiliser Was Able To Become The No.1 Trend On Social Medi…

Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me

Modern day thieves can rob vehicles within 1 minute. They use the vehicle's OBD port to hack into the ECU & then duplicate a key, all from an unnoticed laptop inside the car.

An Autowatch Ghost immobiliser prevents this by sending a series of pin codes via the buttons that are already in your vehicle (steering wheel & central console). It is totally undetectable to anyone inside your vehicle.

No key fobs or LED indicators to reveal its location

The ghost immobiliser is the most effective method to stop keyless entry theft and key cloning. This device is designed to safeguard your vehicle against these types of attacks, by preventing the engine once a correct pin code is entered. This is a highly efficient method of protecting your vehicle, and car insurance companies recognise it as a precautionary measure that could help lower the cost of your insurance.

The way that the ghost operates is through connecting to your vehicle's CAN data network, once installed by us at Car Theft Solutions it will only begin when you press the specific sequence of buttons with your unique override code. The engine won't start when you attempt to start your vehicle without having the code. The thief will then realise that they've been caught and is likely to get out of the vehicle and run off.

This system has the benefit of not transmitting any signals like a tracker. Thieves can't make use of RF receivers to pinpoint your Ghost unit's location. It also does not transmit any IR (infrared) signals like the typical remote key fobs for control or tracker do, which makes it extremely difficult to deceive or hack.

Another benefit of the ghost is that it features the valet mode which can be activated when you surrender your vehicle for valet parking or servicing. This will turn off the immobiliser CAN for 30mph, and allow you to use the vehicle as normal with your key fob or smartphone app. The Ghost will be fully functional when the vehicle is returned to its parked position.

No cloning or hacking

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is one of the most advanced models on the market. It protects your vehicle from key cloning and hacking and makes it virtually impossible to steal. The only way that a burglar could steal your car is physically towing it away. Even then, they won't be capable of starting the engine.

This is due to the fact that, unlike other immobilisers that only stop your vehicle from starting if you don't have the fob, the innovative system actually shuts off the engine control unit to stop the vehicle from being started. It operates by transmitting a signal via buttons on your steering wheel or door panel, or on your central console that can only be deactivated by entering the correct pin code configuration It is this feature that makes the Ghost difficult to break.

Its sleek and discrete design allows it to fit seamlessly into your vehicle without the requirement for additional keys or LED indicators. It runs independently of your factory alarm or tracker. It also functions as a CAN bus immobiliser, which means it is part of the control area network of your vehicle and doesn't interfere with any other devices such as your vehicle's built in key fob or alarm.

This unique technology isn't detectable by thieves unlike other systems that use codes grabbing and RF scanning. It simply sends a series of pin codes silently through the buttons on your vehicle's steering wheels, door panels, or central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary product that protects your vehicle from theft of keys that are keyless and smart key theft. It does this by generating a unique pin code, which needs to be entered to disarm the device.

The number of vehicles that have no keyless entry that are on the road is growing. Thieves are becoming more sophisticated and are using devices to clone your vehicle that can be purchased through classifieds or online for under PS15. They can then use this fob that was cloned to gain entry to your vehicle. The standard immobiliser will stop the car from starting if the criminal has your original key fob. This is not enough protection and it's very easy for criminals jam or spoof signals to unlock your vehicle.

Valet mode

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

A ghost immobiliser does more than stop this. The system, which is 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 is able to access it until they have the exact pin you have.

The system also stops cloning, hacking and signal jamming (which could be used by thieves to circumvent the immobiliser inside your car). This means that if a burglar manages to steal your car keys or your key fob, they won't be capable of starting your vehicle even if they're just the distance of a few feet. The only way for them to get your car away is to physically take it away on a flatbed lorry, which is incredibly unlikely.

Valet mode is a handy feature that is included with your ghost immobiliser. When it is activated the glove box as well as trunk of your car will be locked. This means that anyone attempting to take your car away will not have anything personal to steal. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla so that it can't be driven at speeds of more than 70mph, and it will also disable the ridiculous mode. It will also lock your driver profiles and hide your home or work addresses to ensure that no one else has access to your private data on your Tesla dashboard.

If you would like to utilize your vehicle for valet parking or other service-related reasons, simply choose the 'Valet/Service' option in the dashboard app and then enter the 4-digit valet pin you have on the touchscreen. After this is done, the alarm functions will be bypassed however, it will prevent you from starting your vehicle until a valid pin has been entered. This is ideal for those who need to give their vehicle to other people such as taxi drivers and garage mechanics.

The first aftermarket CAN-bus immobiliser on the world

The Autowatch Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser. It offers security that is unparalleled by anything available today. It protects your car from key cloning, hacking, and even key theft. This is achieved by working alongside your vehicles current interface. It does not require additional remotes or fobs, but instead integrates with the vehicle's data network CAN. This makes it a "stealth' device.

The device is a hidden circuit board that connects to your car's engine management system (ECU) and works silently. Once activated it will prevent your vehicle from starting until a specific PIN is entered. This is a specific number that you will receive when you book an installation. This number is required to activate valet, turn off the alarm, or allow you to leave in a car belonging to a friend (if they also have Ghost installed).

It is designed to be invisible from the inside of your vehicle. It doesn't emit radio signals, but it does emit sounds when it is activated. It can be installed in a variety of different places, making it nearly impossible to detect. It is also low-maintenance and can be used with other systems like a tracker (Brand dependent) to provide a more complete anti-theft solution.

Many people opt for a ghost immobiliser as they believe that the standard security measures aren't sufficient to protect their pride and joy. Physical deterrents like wheel clamps and locking mechanisms for steering wheels are excellent alternatives, but they are not considered "theft-proof" by thieves because they are easily beaten with the right tools. A ghost immobiliser is not bypassable by thieves as it is integrated into the vehicle and, if activated would stop the starter motor as well as the fuel system.

The most appealing aspect is that a ghost immobiliser can be installed for as little as PS450, which is a tiny fraction of the price of other options out on the market. And it actually can protect your vehicle from being taken away!
