Autowatch Ghost II Immobiliser Installation

Ghost immobilisers are the newest technology in vehicle security. They are a breakthrough in the way they protect your car from hacking, key-cloning & even wheel jacking.

The system requires the correct PIN code to start your car. This is accomplished by pressing the buttons on the dashboard or steering wheel.

TASSA Approved

The TASSA-certified Ghost-II CAN from Autowatch is an innovative device designed to fight the most recent automobile crime trends like key cloning, hacking and other forms of theft. This sophisticated system can connect directly to your vehicle's CAN data network, stopping your vehicle from being started or driven without the proper code. The system is completely undetectable and doesn't make use of radio frequencies or keys, but instead it lets you create an individual PIN sequence using the buttons on your vehicle such as the ones on your steering wheel or dashboard that you can alter at any time. You can design the PIN up to 20 presses long to ensure maximum security and an emergency code that is secure is included too.

The system communicates with the vehicle's CAN data network to determine when a specific PIN is entered. It then sends a signal to the vehicle which disables the ignition and engine and shuts down critical components such as the starter motor and the fuel pump. The system also offers the option of a "valet mode" that allows you to turn off the system and prevent your vehicle from being driven by valets or service centre personnel who do not have the correct key.

Unlike conventional immobiliser relays, which can be disabled with readily available professional diagnostic tools, the Ghost device uses the onboard data network to communicate with the ECU and is not able to be tampered with. It is a sealed unit and therefore, it is impossible to monitor the circuits. This makes it impossible for thieves to hear the tell-tale clicking sound that traditional immobiliser relays produce.

This technology is not susceptible to jamming tools used by high-tech thefts and is not detected by any other diagnostic tool since it uses the CAN data networks. This means it's a perfect anti-theft solution for every modern vehicle.

We'll visit your home or office to perform the installation once you have booked the installation. We will go through the entire demonstration with you, and then give you an owner's manual, an emergency card as well as two Autowatch window stickers and a certificate of installation.

Insurance Approved

The Ghost is a security gadget installed aftermarket to protect against the types of thieves interested in stealing a vehicle. It stops your engine from being started when a certain sequence of buttons is pressed. The only person to know this sequence is you. If your vehicle is stolen and the thieves are able to start it and leave your car alone out of fear. The ghost 2 immobiliser installation has a'silent' mode that disables the vehicle when it is not being used. It can be shut off by pressing a button.

The system is TASSA (Tracker and Aftermarket security systems association) insurance approved, Ghost 2 Immobiliser Installation meaning it will be recognised by some insurers as an additional security feature on your vehicle. It can be used alongside other Thatcham-approved security measures, such as trackers to help protect your vehicle from being taken. This will give you extra security.

The Ghost cannot be tampered with by a burglar simply by adding a new key to the vehicle or replacing the ECU. The system will only start your vehicle by entering the correct pin code. This unique PIN is only known to you and is able to be changed at any time.

The ghost 2 immobiliser installation is an immobiliser that can easily be incorporated into any vehicle without the requirement for additional key fobs or wiring. It is directly linked to the vehicle's CAN network, and a PIN number is programed using the buttons on the dashboard or steering wheel. This code prevents the vehicle from being started unless the correct sequence of events has been selected first. If the code is misinterpreted, there are secure emergency codes that can be reset with your mobile phone. There is an application that can be used on iOS and Android to eliminate the requirement of entering pins each time, giving greater security.

Discreet

Contrary to the GPS tracker which only assists in locating your car after it's been taken away, an immobiliser system prevents the vehicle from being taken in the first place. This is accomplished by preventing the engine from starting until the correct code is retrieved from the key fob, or an app downloaded onto the smartphone. This is the most effective way to avoid wheel jacking and other kinds of theft since the person who steals your car will have no choice but to leave your car alone or risk getting arrested.

The ghost immobiliser is a weatherproof, tiny device that fits inside the wiring harness in your vehicle. It has a connection to the CAN data network, and is concealed so thieves can't detect it or disarm it through simple wire cutting. The system has a service-mode that can be activated to let your garage work on your vehicle without needing to know the passcode.

Once the device is installed in your vehicle, it can be disarmed and armed using an app on your smartphone. You can even alter the PIN code at any point to ensure that only you have access to your vehicle. This is beneficial in the event that you intend to sell your car in the future and it can increase the price of resales.

Another benefit of the Ghost immobiliser is that it's discrete and won't leave any marks on the internal body of your car making it a perfect addition to any vehicle. It's simple to install it, is silent and won't interfere with the other systems inside your vehicle.

Ghost immobiliser works in conjunction with other anti-theft technology like trackers to provide unparalleled protection for your vehicle.

Low Maintenance

A Ghost immobiliser works by connecting directly to your CAN data network. It is almost undetectable as it doesn't use any LED indicators or additional key fobs. It also does not emit radio signals and is silent so thieves cannot detect it working. This device can be placed in a variety of places (even under the floor mats), and is an excellent option for those who want to secure their vehicle, without sacrificing its aesthetics.

This device stops your car from starting unless you enter the password that is unique to you. This is done using a combination of buttons on your dashboard and steering wheel in a certain sequence. This will stop thieves from cloning or hacking into your system, and prevent them from starting your vehicle.

Thieves can also attempt to increase your signal to gain access to your vehicle, however the Ghost will detect this and stop your vehicle from starting until enter the correct sequence of disarming. The Ghost is different from other security systems that can be activated using the wrong code. It will continue to prevent your vehicle from starting until you enter the correct passcode.

The Ghost will remain in "service mode' until you activate it by pressing the same set of buttons that you used to arm it (this can be accomplished by visiting your dealer to perform maintenance or warranty work). This is to stop it from being taken away by unauthorised persons and to ensure it's ready to be rearmed if required.

It is also possible to transfer your Ghost to a new vehicle if you change vehicles during the course of ownership, provided that the new vehicle is compatible with. The most recent version of Ghost also comes with QR finger print stickers that connect to the International Security Register, meaning that if your Ghost is stolen for parts it can be traced back to you and your vehicle. This can discourage thieves from stealing vehicles equipped with Ghost because they know that they are protected and would risk getting caught and arrested.
