Protect Your Pride And Joy With The Ghost Immobiliser

Secure your prized possessions against theft with the Ghost Immobiliser. It's discreet and does not require any additional key fobs in order to operate.

The device uses existing buttons on your vehicle (steering wheel, door panels & centre console) to create a unique, changeable pin code sequence of up to 20 presses. This will then authorize the start-up of your vehicle.

Simple PIN code Change Process

With the increasing rate of vehicle thefts, many owners are looking to upgrade their security. There are many types of security products that are available, from tracking systems to immobilisers and alarms. However there are a few that are equally efficient in protecting your vehicle. A tracking device can aid in finding your car if it is stolen however, it won't prevent the crime. Immobilisers, on the contrary, do exactly what they say on the tin - they disable your car's motor so that it can't be started. The Autowatch ghost immobiliser problems (click for info) is one of the most advanced options available, making it nearly impossible for thieves steal your vehicle.

Utilizing the buttons already in your car, the ghost device creates an unique sequence that must be entered prior to the engine starts. This can be done via the indicator stalk or window buttons. There is also a mobile application that can be used as an emergency PIN override, which allows the driver to operate their vehicle without the button sequence. This is a great option for those who want to offer your car to valet parking or for maintenance. The immobiliser will remain in operation.

The Ghost is an innovative and unique device that works by using your vehicle's buttons rather than as a standalone device. This means it's not just a highly effective protection against theft of your vehicle, but can also be transferred over to any future cars you may own, making it much more investment-wise than a traditional steering wheel lock.

Weatherproof, tiny device

The Autowatch ghost immobiliser is a sophisticated security system that guards your vehicle from key cloning, hacking and ECU swapping. It is a weatherproof tiny device that communicates directly with your vehicle's ECU over the CAN data bus to disable the engine. It can be placed in the vehicle without the need for extra wiring and has been thoroughly tested to make sure it works with all vehicles. It also is resistant to jamming devices which is an approach used frequently by thieves to bypass existing immobilisers.

The benefit of using CAN data is that it operates in a silent manner compared to traditional systems. It cannot be detected using sophisticated RF scanning and code-grabbing technology and cannot be recognized by conventional diagnostic tools. The Autowatch ghost installation doesn't produce LEDs, but instead utilizes the buttons inside your vehicle, such as the steering wheel or centre console panels to create a unique, programmable disarm sequence. This sequence can be extended up to 20 presses to provide additional security. The iPhone app allows a single, authorised connection with a pairing code that is unique to the Ghost and communication between the two is secured.

The ghost alarm installation will stop car thieves from putting in an ignition key replacement or replacing the ECU to bypass the immobiliser. The engine will only start if a valid PIN code is entered. It is able to be operated temporarily in the Valet/Service mode (with parameters set such as a 30mph speed limit), so you can hand your car to an attendant or valet without needing to enter an entry code.

Tested for each vehicle

The Autowatch Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser that connects to the existing wiring in your vehicle and connects to your engine control unit (ECU). The device snoops on electronic signals that block the system of your vehicle from running its normal initialization process until you enter an individual passcode. The system can be turned off or on by using your smartphone app without the need for additional wires.

The standard factory immobilisers function by using a transponder that is built into the key. It transmits a message to the ECU. If the correct code is transmitted, the car will start however if the transponder is swapped with one from another vehicle the immobiliser will not recognise it. This makes it possible for the vehicle to be stolen and started. The ghost 2 immobiliser installation near me immobiliser was created by an South African company at the forefront of vehicle security systems technology. It shields you from hacking or key cloning, and even key theft. The only way that a burglar could steal your car is by physically towing it away and even then they would not be allowed to drive it.

Ghost makes use of buttons on your vehicle, such as the indicator stalk, steering wheel, and door panels, to create unique PIN codes that needs to be entered to use your vehicle. This is done without any extra hardware, such as key fobs. It can take up to 20 presses. It is also unrecognizable to diagnostics equipment and does not transmit radio frequency signals, so thieves cannot use sophisticated RF scanning or code grabbing techniques to detect that the security system has been installed.

Ghost is more difficult to get rid of than car alarms, which require disarming by pressing several buttons. This makes it a great supplement to a GPS tracker, which can help locate your vehicle after it has been stolen.

Emergency PIN code override

You don't have to look very long on social media sites to find stories or videos of vehicles that were stolen using the most advanced technology tools. This includes key-cloning devices and hacking devices that allow them to start your vehicle without the original key fobs.

The Ghost immobiliser has been designed to stop this, and give you an extra layer of security in order to protect your vehicle from being targeted by thieves. It is created by creating a unique pin code push sequence from your buttons on the steering wheel, door panel and the center console. The unique pin code must be entered along with your original key fob in order to prevent the vehicle from getting started. The unique override pin is found on a black card which you will receive following your installation. It is simple to remember since there are no LED indicators.

The device is hidden in the wiring of the vehicle and does not emit radio signals. This means it can't be detected using diagnostic software that can determine the security system you have installed. This makes it a fantastic alternative to the tracker.

In contrast to other security systems that use a relay inside the engine bay, CANBUS Immobilisers communicate with the vehicle's ECU and BCM via CAN data bus (brand dependant). This enables them to shut down the vehicle completely through the use of a digital block of commands to both the ECU and the engine.

It is also possible to connect an analog immobiliser, alarm or tracker to these systems, but this has to be specified prior to installing ghost immobiliser the device. They are also fully service/valet mode-compatible and a great alternative to a tracker when you are taking your car in for repairs to an electrical issue at the dealer.

Service/Valet Mode

In recent times, there has been a rise in the number of vehicles being stolen without the owners keys. With the ease of access to key cloning tools and door lock pick sets it is now easier than ever for thieves to steal your prized possessions. To stop this, we have launched the Autowatch ghost alarm installation immobiliser that prevents your car from being driven even if your keys have been cloned or your vehicle was stolen.

It connects directly to your car's ECU (Engine Control Unit) through the CAN data loop. It's completely silent since it doesn't use radio frequency or key fobs. This means it cannot be detected by diagnostics or other car hacking devices. It also protects you from adding an ECU or key to bypass the system because only the PIN number allows the engine to be started.

The device is hidden inside your car by using buttons on the steering wheel, the centre console and door panels. A unique and reversible PIN code sequence of up to 20 digits has to be entered prior to being able to start your car.

This is the first aftermarket immobiliser for CAN bus to be designed to stop your car being driven away or started without a PIN code being entered before. If the device is armed and you attempt to drive off it will display an indicator on your dash, which will flash on a regular basis for approximately 300m. If you enter your PIN code at this point, it will disable the anti-hijack device and your car will continue to operate as normal. If you do not enter your PIN at this time, the indicator will continue to flash and will require a new PIN code every time you try to start your car.
