Ghost Immobiliser 2

Secures your vehicle from key cloning and stops thieves from driving it with the original keys. Our latest immobiliser connects to your vehicle's data network, CAN, and an individual PIN code has to be entered in order for the engine to begin.

Ghost unlike trackers, does not emit radio frequency signals, and therefore cannot be detected by diagnostic tools. Ghost doesn't have LED indicators or buttons that could indicate its presence in your car or van.

Anti-key cloning

The ghost immobiliser has been designed to combat key cloning and hacking. The device is connected to your vehicle's data network CAN, and creates a unique pin code using the factory buttons in your dashboard and steering. This will stop the thief from being able to start your car. If the incorrect PIN code is entered, your car will not be started, making it impossible for them to drive away with your pride and joy.

Ghost immobilisers are new technology that is extremely hard for thieves to defeat. The ghost immobiliser, unlike physical deterrents such as wheel locks and steering lock that can be cut, is a discrete electronic device. It can't even be recognized by thieves as it does not emit radio signals and functions in a quiet manner.

This next-generation immobiliser will protect your vehicle from a range of threats, including key hacking, relay attacks and copied copies. It is also able to stop the thief from adding the new key or replacing your ECU by ensuring that it does not allow the car to start without entering the correct PIN code first.

Unlike other immobilisers, the ghost immobiliser 2 does NOT require a key fobs or remotes to operate. It what is ghost immobiliser able to be deactivated from the driver's phone using a simple app. This makes it ideal for the times you have to hand your car to valet parking or maintenance without the key fobs.

The Autowatch Ghost-II represents the latest version of the Ghost's immobiliser. It was designed to be simple and easy to use while remaining as secure as it can be. This is achieved by linking the Ghost-II with the vehicle's CAN data network, meaning there are no extra wires that are able to be hidden or easily spotted. It also comes with an inbuilt feature that allows users to disable the Ghost-II simply by connecting to the vehicle's Bluetooth.

OBD port hacking

OBD port hacking is the latest method being used by professional car thieves to steal cars. Thieves have access to your vehicle's OBD port with little more than an laptop, an app and a few cables, which can be purchased online for less than PS50. Once they have access to your vehicle's OBD port, they are able to do whatever they like from setting fault codes, and tuning your car to taking away your pride and joy in less than a minute.

If you have a Ghost immobiliser, it can prevent your car from being stolen with this method by needing an unique PIN code sequence is entered into your key fob to start the engine and drive away. It does this by communicating with the vehicles ECU (Engine Control Unit) on the CAN Data circuit and is indetectable to any scan or code grabbing technology. It comes with a Service/Valet mode that allows your vehicle to start without requiring a PIN code.

To use an OBD hacking device, you'll require a laptop with software capable of interpreting the OBD protocol, which can be bought for less than PS100 on eBay or Amazon. Also, you will require a cable with OBD pins connected to CAN Bus. These cables can be bought on eBay or Amazon for PS50. The cable needs to be spliced into the wiring harness of your car, for example the radio wiring harness.

Once the hacker has gained access to the OBD port on your vehicle, they are able to send diagnostics to the system at a high baud rate which can cause a crash to the car's CAN and prevent the systems from working. This could cause your vehicle's engine to stall or even lock up.

No remotes or keys required

The car immobiliser is a great piece of anti-theft technology utilized by millions of modern vehicles across the globe. Using engine ECU software to stop cars from starting if a fake transponder signal is detected by it an aftermarket immobiliser is a great way to protect your vehicle.

However, it can be easy for thieves to get around an immobiliser system when they have access to the code that allows them to disable it. The battery inside most key fobs is easily removed by prying it open, so a thief can employ a simple tool remove the immobiliser's internal circuit board and replace it with a blank. Then they will be in a position to start your vehicle.

The TASSA approved Ghost 2 is an immobiliser that does not require any additional keys or remotes. The immobiliser is directly connected to the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit). This is done by a discrete and silent data loop in CAN that cannot be detected by diagnostic tools, such as those used by high-tech thieves. It does not have a traditional keyfob with LED indicator, so it's inaccessible.

There will be occasions when you need to deactivate Autowatch Ghost 2's automatic protection for instance, during a valet parking or servicing. Ghost CAN immobilisers have a mode called 'Service Mode that you can activate by just a click of a phone button. The car is still operated, but the maximum speed is limited to 36mph for added security.

Simple change of PIN code

Ghost is a next-generation device that secures your vehicle without cutting wires or adding aftermarket key fobs. It connects directly to your vehicles CAN data network and a unique PIN code is programmed in it by pressing buttons on your steering wheel and dash. The system prevents engine start and cannot be bypassed because no RF signals are emitted from the device. This makes it unrecognisable by sophisticated scans using RF or code-grabbing technology that modern thieves employ.

The PIN code sequence can be changed whenever you wish to lock out previous drivers. It even comes with an override option in the event of a sequence that is not remembered. The installer will guide you through the procedure to accomplish this during installation. The system also comes with the valet mode feature that can be used to temporarily disable the pin input sequence to allow your garage or mechanic can fix the vehicle without needing to know the pin code. This is a great choice for those who don't want their pin number to be revealed but still would like to leave their vehicle with valet parking or service.

Ghost is an unobtrusive system that utilizes the buttons on your car to create an individual and interchangeable PIN sequence. This sequence is entered through the smartphone application. No additional LED indicators are thrown, and your car will be protected without any risk of being disabled.

Tested for each vehicle

Ghost immobilisers, unlike key fobs which require you to press buttons, is discreetly placed under the dash or steering wheel. You won't even know it's there. The device is connected to the vehicle's CAN data network, Ghostinstallations and an individual PIN code is programmed by using the buttons already on your car. The system stops your engine from starting unless the code has been entered first. This means that thieves cannot clone the keys of your car or access the OBD to hack into it.

Ghost can be utilized in all vehicles, including electric cars motorhomes, vans, motorhomes and bicycles. It's also extremely flexible and can be programmed to shut down in a variety of situations. It is possible to program it to go into Valet mode, for instance when your vehicle is transported to a valet company or parking company. This permits you to drive within the 30mph limit, and the ghost immobiliser will start to activate itself when the vehicle returns to your possession.

Another excellent feature is that the device can be reset to your personal PIN code at any point. This is helpful if you forget the code or the device ceases to function and is as good as new again.

It's also important to note that the device is completely undetectable to anyone who isn't familiar with it. It does this by analyzing the buttons on your dashboard and steering wheel and analyzing the data it sends to determine the exact button that was pressed. This makes it a secure and secure security system that can't be tampered by RF scanning or jamming, or door lock pick set.
