Protect Your Pride And Joy With The Ghost Immobiliser

Protect your pride & joy from theft by using the Ghost Immobiliser. It's discreet and does not require additional key fobs to operate.

The device utilizes buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels, door panels and centre console) to generate a unique pin sequence that can be altered up to 20 times. This will then allow your vehicle to begin.

Simple PIN code Change Process

With the increasing rate of vehicle thefts, many owners are looking to improve their security. There are a variety of aftermarket security devices including tracking systems, alarms and immobilisers. However, not all of these are equally efficient in protecting your vehicle. While a tracking device can help you find your vehicle in the event of theft, it does not stop the crime from occurring in the first instance. Immobilisers, in contrast perform exactly as they say on the tin: they shut off your car's engine to prevent it from being started. The Autowatch Ghost is one of the most advanced options available, making it almost impossible for thieves steal your car.

The ghost device makes use of the buttons on your car to generate an unique sequence that needs to be entered to allow the engine to start. This can be accomplished using the indicator stalk windows or heater buttons. There is also a mobile app that can be used as an emergency PIN override, allowing the driver to operate their vehicle without having to use the button sequence. This is especially useful if you need to give your car away for valet parking or servicing because the immobiliser will still be activated, but not disabled.

The Ghost is an unique and innovative device that works by using the buttons on your vehicle rather than as a separate unit. This means it's not only a highly effective protection against theft of your vehicle, but it can also be transferred to any future vehicles you may own, making it much more valuable than traditional steering wheel locks.

Weatherproof tiny device

The Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser is a sophisticated security system that protects 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 through the CAN bus, causing it to shut down the motor. It can be placed in the vehicle without the need for extra wiring and has been thoroughly tested to make sure it is compatible with all vehicles. It is also resistant to jamming devices that are a common technique used by thieves to bypass the immobilisers in place.

The advantage of using CAN data is that it runs silently compared to traditional systems. It is not able to be detected by sophisticated RF scanning and code-grabbing technology and cannot be detected by traditional diagnostic tools. The Autowatch Ghost does not employ LED indicators and instead uses buttons in your vehicle, like the steering wheel, centre console or doors, to create an unique sequence of disarming. You can even create a sequence that is as long as 20 presses for added security. The iPhone app permits only one, authenticated connection, with the pairing code unique to the Ghost and communication between the two is encrypted.

The Ghost stops car thieves from adding an ignition key that is not in use or replacing the ECU in order to bypass the immobiliser. The engine will only run only if a valid PIN has been entered. It can be temporarily operated in Valet/Service mode (with parameters set such as 30mph speed limit) and, therefore, you can hand your car to an attendant or valet without having to enter the code.

Every vehicle is tested

The Autowatch Ghost is the first aftermarket immobiliser CANbus. It can be connected to the vehicle's wiring and also to the engine control unit (ECU). The device intercepts signals to stop your car from operating normally until you enter a custom code. The system can be activated and deactivated using your own smartphone application without the need for wires.

The standard factory immobilisers function by using a transponder that is embedded in the key. This sends a message to the ECU. If the correct code is transmitted the car will begin however if the transponder is replaced with one from a different vehicle, the immobiliser will not recognise it. This allows the vehicle be started and stolen. A South African company that is at the forefront of car security systems technology developed the Ghost immobiliser. It protects you from hacking or key cloning and even key theft. Only by physically towing your vehicle away can thieves steal it and not be able to drive the vehicle.

Ghost uses the buttons in your vehicle including the indicator stalk as well as the steering wheel and door panels to generate an individual PIN code that is changeable that needs to be entered before you are able to use your car. This is performed without the need for additional hardware like a key-fob and can be up to 20 presses long. It is also inaccessible to diagnostic equipment and doesn't transmit radio frequency signals so thieves are unable to utilize sophisticated RF scanning or code grabbing technology to detect that security systems have been installed.

Unlike physical anti-theft devices like clamps or wheel locks, Ghost is covertly integrated into the vehicle so it can't be removed or disabled by thieves. It is more difficult to remove from a car alarm which requires disarming via a button sequence. This makes it a fantastic complement to an GPS tracking device, which can be used to track your vehicle after it's stolen.

Emergency PIN code override

You don't have to go far on social media to see stories or even videos of vehicles that have been stolen by thieves using the most advanced technology tools available to them. Key-cloning devices, for instance, and hacking tools that allow thieves to start the car without your original keys.

Our ghost immobiliser installation near me (www.kannikar.net) immobiliser fights this and provides you with an additional layer of security to prevent your vehicle from being stolen if it is targeted by thieves. It generates a unique pin code when pushing the buttons on your steering wheel, door panel, and on the centre console. The unique pin code must be entered along with your original key fob to stop the vehicle from getting started. The unique override pin is found on a black card which you will receive following your installation. It is easy to remember since there aren't any LED indicators.

The device is hidden within the wiring of your vehicle and does not emit radio signals. This means it can't be detected by diagnostic software that can tell the type of security system you have installed. This makes it an excellent alternative to a tracking device.

Unlike most other security systems that use a relay in the engine bay, these CANBUS Immobilisers connect with the car's ECU and BCM via CAN data bus (brand dependent). This allows them to disable the vehicle completely through a digital block of commands to both the ECU and the engine.

They can also be connected to a separate analogue alarm, immobiliser or tracker. This should be decided prior to the installation. They are also fully service/valet mode compatible and a great alternative to a tracker if you are you have your car checked for repair at the dealership.

Service/Valet mode

In recent years there has been an increase in the number of vehicles stolen without the owner's keys. With easy access to key cloning equipment & door lock pick sets it is now easier than ever for thieves to take your joy and pride. We've developed the Autowatch ghost immobiliser review Immobiliser to combat this. It stops your car from being driven, even if your keys have been copied.

It connects directly to your car's ECU (Engine Control Unit) via the CAN data circuit. It's completely silent as it doesn't utilize radio frequencies or a key fob. This means it cannot be detected by diagnostics or other car hacking devices. It also prevents the user from using an ECU or key to circumvent the system, because only the PIN number allows the engine to be started.

The device is concealed inside your car, using buttons on the steering wheel, centre console and door panels. Before you can start your vehicle, you must enter a unique and changeable PIN code up to 20 numbers.

This is the very first aftermarket CAN-bus immobiliser that has been developed. It can prevent your vehicle from being started or driven when you don't enter a PIN number 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 type in your PIN code at this point it will disarm the anti-hijack and your car will continue to operate as normal. If you don't enter your PIN code at this time the indication will continue to flash and will require a new PIN code for every attempt to start your car.
