Get a Ghost Immobiliser Fitted to Protect Your Vehicle

The Autowatch Ghost, an immobiliser for cars of the future is a security device that protects against key (and keys without keys) thefts, clonings and hacking of relays. It is a discreet device which is connected to the vehicles CAN data network and functions silently.

It works by using a PIN code sequence consisting of buttons on the steering wheel or console to operate it. It can also be activated in service mode, which allows the vehicle to start temporarily for use when needed.

No Radio Signals

If you want to protect your vehicle from hacking, key cloning and theft, getting a ghost immobiliser fitted is a great method to do it. It is silent and is hidden within the vehicle and doesn't utilize radio signals to communicate. This makes it difficult for thieves to identify using radar scanners as they are unable to see or hear it.

The device also stops cloning your vehicle's keyfob, by blocking communication between the vehicle's CAN data network and the keyfob. Criminal gangs of organized car thieves often employ sophisticated codes and RF scanning technology to snoop on and disable security systems in vehicles. However, ghost immobilisers are undetectable to such thieves because they don't emit any RF signals and are integrated into the vehicles CAN data network, which means that there are no circuit breaks during installation and fitting, which makes them totally unnoticeable.

As well as stopping your car from getting started, the ghost immobiliser will also stop your car from being moved. This is a great option if are going to park your vehicle in a public space, like a garage or supermarket, or when a valet will be parking it for you. This feature can be activated via a simple application on an iOS or Android phone.

With the aid of a GPS tracker, your vehicle can also be tracked. This will assist with the search for your vehicle, should it be stolen. In recent times, thieves were in a position to bypass security systems through the OBD port. However it is possible to prevent this with a ghost immobiliser that communicates directly with your vehicle's ECU via the CAN data circuit. This is invisible to hi-tech diagnostics tools and completely inaudible, meaning that a burglar can't insert a new key or replace the ECU in order to start the car.

The device is completely reversible, and it will not affect the warranty of your vehicle. If you're looking to have a ghost immobiliser fitted ensure you find a TASSA (Tracker and Aftermarket Security Systems Association) approved installer. This will ensure that the installer has passed several checks such as identity and CRB.

No Circuit Cuts

If you want to protect your vehicle from theft through contactless, a Ghost 2 immobiliser immobiliser is the ideal solution. This discreet device is installed in a hidden location in your vehicle, and functions by blocking the engine from beginning unless certain buttons in your vehicle are pressed in a particular sequence (similar to a PIN code on your smartphone).

As it doesn't use radio frequencies or key fobs to communicate, there aren't lights or sounds to signal its presence. It connects to your vehicle through the CAN data network and works silently, protecting your vehicle from thieves who don't want to be seen.

Many drivers are searching for ways to shield their vehicles from theft, since car theft is increasing. The theft of vehicles that are in high demand is increasing, and with the right equipment, thieves can strip down a vehicle within hours. This is why it's crucial to secure your vehicle from this crime with a ghost immobiliser from Autowatch.

A ghost immobiliser from Autowatch is an original and effective solution to this problem. It uses the CAN data bus to link with your vehicle and block the engine from beginning until you enter a pre-set pin code that is unique to you. The code can be entered using buttons on the steering wheel, the centre console or doors. It can also be changed if needed.

It is also extremely difficult to identify, since it doesn't have LED indicators, a frequency or other clues that can give thieves a clue as to its existence. In addition, it doesn't require any cutting of wires or additional aftermarket devices, and can be disarmed remotely using the Autowatch app if you're having your vehicle cleaned or serviced.

As a result, a ghost immobiliser from Autowatch is the ideal solution to prevent theft via contactless and protecting your vehicle. It's a TASSA certified device, which means it is recognised by large organizations like insurance companies and police forces. We are approved installers at Car Specialist Customs and can help secure your vehicle without cutting wires or add keys from the aftermarket.

No Key Fobs

A ghost immobiliser doesn't rely on your traditional key fob to communicate with the vehicle. It makes use of buttons in your car, for instance those on the steering wheel and Ghost Immobiliser door panels, to create a unique code sequence you need to enter in order to start your car. The system is completely invisible, because it doesn't emit radio signals and communicates directly with the ECU using the CAN data circuit. Diagnostic tools or keys stolen from your car cannot detect it.

This means that even if thieves have the original key fob, they'll need the exact pin code sequence in order to successfully start your vehicle. The system also prevents key cloning and signal jamming and device-spoofing, all methods employed by thieves to unlock vehicles with an immobiliser.

If you've spent a lot of time and money the design of your vehicle, or have a unique or costly vehicle, a ghost immobiliser can help to keep it safe from theft. The system can be remotely deactivated with a mobile app for iOS and Android and is an excellent feature for those who are not sure who has keys to your car or where your car is parked.

Another useful feature of the ghost immobiliser is that it can protect your vehicle from relay-style frequency amplification attacks. These are a frequent method for high-tech thieves to steal PKE-equipped vehicles by capturing the frequency of the key fob, and then transmitting it to a co-conspirator who can then utilize a remote starter to move your car. The system will stop this from happening by cutting off the battery from your key fob after a couple of minutes of inactivity.

The Autowatch Ghost system comes with several other features that will ensure your vehicle is secure. These include preventing ECU swapping, key cloning and more. By communicating with the ECU through the CAN data network it is not possible for thieves install new keys or to replace your ECU to circumvent the system. The system will require a unique pin code to start your vehicle which can be entered via the phone app, making it more difficult for thieves to break into your car.

Service Mode

No matter if you're an experienced burglar or just beginning on the criminal career path, the equipment you need to scan & clone vehicles is becoming increasingly cheaper & easier to obtain. In fact, you can even purchase complete cloning kits to your vehicle on the internet and this makes it more essential than ever to protect your vehicle by installing a ghost immobiliser.

A ghost immobiliser is an invisible device that works alongside the key fob you already have to stop your car from being started unless an individual PIN code sequence is entered. This sequence is generated using buttons present on your vehicle such as those on the steering wheel, door panels and centre console. This pin code is only recognized by you and you are the only person who can begin your car. This pin code is the only way that thieves are able to steal your vehicle even if you've given them keys.

The ghost communicates with the ECU through the CAN network, which means that it's a low-risk option without a risk of harm to the vehicle. It's also a more discreet alternative that doesn't rely on LED indicators or key fobs. It's virtually unnoticeable to anyone that isn't the owner of the vehicle, and it's not affected by jamming devices such as circuit cuts or technology that grabs codes. Furthermore, it's safe from keyless entry or devices that spoof your device.

As well as making it more difficult for thieves to steal your vehicle, a ghost immobiliser can aid in reducing your insurance premiums. It's because there is no sign of installation, therefore your insurance company will assume that you have an anti-theft system installed.
