What Is The Reason? Ghost Immobiliser Is Fast Increasing To Be The Hottest Trend Of 2023
Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me
Modern day thieves can steal vehicles in less than a minute. They make use of the OBD port of the car to hack into the ECU and then duplicate a key, all using an unprotected laptop inside the vehicle.
The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser can prevent this by sending pin codes to buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels and central console). It is completely inaccessible to anyone in your car.
No key fobs, or LED indications to give away its location
The ghost immobiliser is the most effective method to protect against keyless entry theft and key copying. This device protects your vehicle from these types of attacks by blocking the engine after the correct pin code is entered. This is a very effective method of safeguarding your car, and insurance companies see it as a security measure that could help lower the cost of your policy.
The way the ghost works is by connecting to your vehicles CAN data network. Once installed by us at Car Theft Solutions it will only start when you press a specific button sequence using your unique override code. The engine won't start when you attempt to start your vehicle without using the code. The thief will then realize that they have been caught and will likely abandon the vehicle.
One of the major advantages of this system is that it does not transmit any signals, like a tracker, this means that thieves can't make use of RF signal receivers to determine the location of your Ghost unit. It doesn't emit IR (infrared signals) as do typical remote control key fobs and trackers, making it difficult to bypass or hack.
Another advantage of the ghost is that it comes with an option for valet parking that can be activated when you give your vehicle for valet parking or servicing. This will disable the immobiliser CAN for 30mph and allow you to drive as normal with your key fob. When the vehicle is set up, the Ghost will return to full functionality.

No cloning, hacking or modifying
The Autowatch Ghost is one of the most advanced immobilisers on the market. It protects your car from key cloning or hacking making it near impossible to steal. The only way thieves could steal your car is to physically tow it away. Even then, they won't be able to start the engine.
This is because, unlike other immobilisers that only stop your vehicle from starting if you don't have a fob, the Ghost's clever system actually cuts off the engine control unit in order to prevent the vehicle from starting. The system communicates a message through buttons on the steering wheel, door panel or the centre console. It is only disarmed with the correct pin code configuration.
Its sleek and discrete design allows it to seamlessly into your vehicle without the requirement for additional keys or LED indicators. It runs independently of your factory alarm or tracker. It is also a CAN bus immobiliser which means that it sits within your vehicle's control area network and does not interfere with other devices, such as the built-in key fob or alarm.
In contrast to other systems that depend on code grabbing or RF scanning, this unique technology is completely undetectable by thieves since it sends an unobtrusive sequence of pin codes via the buttons on your vehicle's steering wheel and door panels as well as the central console. The Ghost is a groundbreaking product that safeguards your vehicle from theft of keyless entry and smart key theft. It does this by generating a unique pin code, which needs to be entered in order to disable the device.
The number of keyless entry vehicles in circulation is increasing. Thieves are becoming sophisticated and are using cloning devices that can be purchased on the internet or in classifieds less than PS15. The cloned key fob can be used to gain access to the vehicle. A standard vehicle immobiliser stops the engine from starting if they have your original key fob, this does not offer enough security and is easy for criminals to alter or block signals to unlock the vehicle.
Valet mode
Standard immobilisers fitted to your vehicle use an electronic chip that sends an indication. The system will search for the code transmitted by the key to begin the vehicle. If the correct signal isn't detected, it will cut off and prevent the engine from beginning. This is the basis of all immobilisers that are sold aftermarket. It is a vital measure to safeguard your car from being taken away, even if someone has your keys or an accessory that can boost the signal of your key fob.
However, a ghost immobiliser doesn't only stop it from happening but it also goes a step further. The system, which is on the CAN bus of your Mercedes, is programmed with a unique PIN push sequence that must be entered in order to start the vehicle. It is then secured in your app, and no one else can access it without the same pin that you have.
The system will also stop cloning, signal jamming and hacking (which thieves may employ to bypass the immobiliser on your vehicle). If a criminal gets their hands on your car keys or key fob, they won't be able to start your car even if it's parked nearby. The only way to get your car away is to physically transport it away on an oversized lorry that has a flatbed, which is incredibly unlikely.
Valet mode is an option that comes with your ghost immobiliser. When activated, the glove box and trunk will be locked to ensure that thieves will not have any personal items to carry with them. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla to ensure that it cannot be driven over 70mph. It will also disable insane modes. It will also lock your driver profiles and hide your home / work addresses so that no one else has access to your private data on your Tesla dashboard.
If you want to make use of your car for valet parking or other service-related purposes, just select the 'Valet/Service' feature on your dashboard application and enter your 4-digit valet pin on the touchscreen. The alarm will no longer work, but the car won't begin unless you enter a valid pin. This is ideal for those who need to hand their vehicle over to others, such as taxi drivers or garage mechanics.
The first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser
The Autowatch Ghost offers unparalleled security and is the first aftermarket CAN-bus immobiliser in the world. It guards against key cloning or hacking, and even theft of keys. This is accomplished through a partnership with your vehicle's current interface. It doesn't require additional remotes or fobs, but instead integrates into the vehicle's CAN data network. This makes it a 'stealth' device.
The device is a hidden circuit board that connects to the engine management system of your car (ECU) and works silently. Once activated, it will stop your car from starting until a specific PIN is entered. This is a unique number that you will receive when you make an appointment for installation. This number is required to activate valet, disable the alarm, or allow you to drive away in a car belonging to a friend (if they also have Ghost installed).
It is designed to be invisble from the interior of your vehicle. It doesn't emit radio signals, but only sounds when it is activated. It can be fitted in a variety of different places, making it nearly impossible to detect. It is also low-maintenance and can be used in combination with other anti-theft systems, such as trackers (Brand dependent) to offer the complete solution.
ghost immobilizer opt to put in a ghost immobiliser because they believe that standard security isn't enough to stop their pride and joy from being stolen. Whilst physical deterrents like wheel locks for steering wheels and wheel clamps are a great alternative, they aren't really considered "theft proof" by thieves because they can be beaten easily using the proper tools. Ghost immobilisers are not bypassable by thieves as it is integrated into the vehicle and, if activated, will stop the starter motor or the fuel system.
The most appealing aspect is that ghost immobilisers can be installed for as little as PS450, which is a tiny fraction of the cost of other products out there. It also can protect your vehicle from being taken away!
