Protect Your Pride And Joy With The Ghost Immobiliser
Ghost Immobiliser can safeguard your prized property from theft. It is discreet and doesn't require additional key fobs.
The device uses buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels doors, door panels and the centre console) to create a unique pin code sequence that can be altered up to 20 times. This then authorizes the startup of your vehicle.
Simple process to change the PIN code
With the rising rate of vehicle thefts, many owners are seeking to improve their security. There are a variety of aftermarket security devices, from tracking systems to alarms and immobilisers. Not all of them are equally effective at protecting your car. A tracking device can aid in finding your vehicle in the event of it being stolen, but it will not prevent the crime. Immobilisers, on the contrary, does exactly what it says on the tin: it shuts down your car's engine so that it is unable to be started. The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is one of the most advanced options available on the market, making it almost impossible for thieves to steal your vehicle.
The ghost device uses the buttons on your car to generate a unique sequence which must be entered to allow the engine to start. This can be done by using the heater, window or indicator stalk buttons. There is also a mobile application that can be used as an emergency PIN override, allowing the driver to operate their vehicle without the button sequence. This option is particularly useful if you need to hand your car over for valet parking or maintenance, as the immobiliser will remain activated, but not disabled.
The Ghost is a unique and ingenious device that works in conjunction with the buttons on your vehicle rather than being a standalone unit. It is not only an effective deterrent for vehicle theft however, it can be used to secure any future vehicles you may own. This makes it a much better investment than a traditional wheel lock.
Weatherproof, tiny device
The Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser is an advanced security system that safeguards your vehicle from key hacking and cloning. It also prevents ECU swapping. It is a small, weatherproof device that communicates with the ECU of your vehicle directly via the CAN bus, causing it to shut down the motor. It can be plugged into the vehicle without the need for extra wiring, and has been thoroughly tested to ensure that it works with all vehicles. It is also resistant against jamming devices which are a typical technique used by thieves to circumvent immobilisers.
The benefit of CAN data over conventional systems is that they work silently. It isn't detected by sophisticated RF scanning and code-grabbing technologies as well as detected by traditional diagnostic tools. The Autowatch Ghost does not use LED indicators but instead utilizes buttons in your vehicle, like the steering wheel, centre console, or door panels, to create an unique sequence of disarming. You can create a sequence that is up to 20 presses long to provide additional security. The iPhone app allows only one connection, and comes with the Ghost's unique pairing code. the Ghost. All communication between the two devices is secured.
The Ghost also prevents car thieves from using the key to a new car or replacing the ECU to bypass the immobiliser and begin the engine. The engine will only start when a valid PIN code has been entered. It can also be put in valet/service mode to allow for temporary operation (with specified parameters, such as a 30mph speed limit) so that you can give your car to a valet service for servicing without the need to enter a PIN.
Every vehicle is tested
The Autowatch Ghost is the world's first aftermarket immobiliser for CAN bus that is able to be connected to the existing wiring in your vehicle and connects to your engine control unit (ECU). The device detects signals to prevent your car from operating normally until you enter a custom code. The system can be turned on or off by using your smartphone app without the need for extra wires.
The factory-installed immobilisers function by using a transponder that is built into the key. This transmits a signal to the ECU. If the correct code is transmitted the car will begin, but if a transponder is replaced with one from a different vehicle, the immobiliser will not recognise it. This enables the vehicle to be stolen and started. ghost immobiliser that is at the forefront of safety systems technology developed the Ghost immobiliser. It safeguards your vehicle from hacking, key cloning and even key theft. The only way that a burglar could take your car is by physically towing it away, and even then they wouldn't be allowed to drive it.
Ghost makes use of buttons in your vehicle, such as the indicator stalk, the steering wheel, and door panels, to generate an individual PIN code that needs to be entered in order to use your car. This is not required to use additional hardware like key fobs and can last up to 20 presses long. It is also undetectable to diagnostic equipment and does not transmit radio frequency signals, which means thieves cannot utilize sophisticated RF scanning or code-grabbing technology to discover that a security system has been installed.
Ghost is harder to remove than car alarms, which require disarming using the buttons. This makes it an excellent addition to a GPS tracking device, which can be used to locate your vehicle after it's been taken.
Override of emergency PIN code
You don't have to look very long on social media sites to find stories or videos about cars that were stolen using the most advanced technology tools. This includes key-cloning and hacking tools that allow the vehicle to start without the original key fobs.
The Ghost immobiliser helps combat this and gives you an additional layer of security to prevent your vehicle from being taken when it is targeted by thieves. It generates an individual pin code by pressing the buttons on your steering wheel, door panel and the centre console. This unique PIN has to be entered together with your original key fob in order to stop the vehicle from starting. The unique PIN for override can be found on the black card you will receive after installation. It is simple to remember since there are no LED indications.
The device is hidden within the vehicle's wires, and does not emit radio signals, so it can't be identified by modern criminals using diagnostic software that can recognise what type of security system you have installed. This makes it a great alternative to a tracking device.
Contrary to most security systems, which have a relay inside the engine bay, these CANBUS Immobilisers connect with the car's ECU and BCM via CAN data bus (brand dependant). This allows them to block the vehicle completely by sending a digital block to the ECU and engine.
It is also possible to connect a separate analogue immobiliser, alarm or tracker with these systems but this must be specified before installing the device. They also work with service/valet modes and a great alternative to a tracking device if you bring your vehicle to the dealer to address an electrical issue.
Service/Valet Mode
In recent times, there has been a rise in the number of vehicles that are stolen without owners' keys. It's easier than ever to take your joy and pride thanks to the availability of key cloning devices and door lock picks. We have created the Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser to combat this. It prevents your car from being driven, even if you keys have been cloned.
It directly communicates with your cars ECU (Engine Control Unit) via the CAN data circuit. It's completely silent because it does not utilize radio frequencies or key fobs. It cannot be detected using diagnostics or any other hacking device. It also prevents the addition of a new key or replacing the ECU to get around the system since only the correct PIN code will allow the engine to start.
The device is hidden in your vehicle and is accessible via buttons on your steering wheel, the centre console and door panels. Before you can begin your vehicle, you must enter a unique, changeable PIN number that is up to 20 digits.
This is the first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser to be designed to stop your car being started or driven away without a PIN code being entered first. If the device is in armed and you try to drive away, it will display an indication on your dash, which will flash continuously for about 300m, if you enter your PIN code at this point it will disable the anti-hijack and your car will continue to drive in the normal way. If you do not enter your PIN code at this point, the indicator will continue to flash and require a new PIN code for every attempt to start your vehicle.
