Anti-key Cloning

The ghost immobilise immobiliser was created to fight key hacking and cloning. This device connects to your vehicle's CAN data network and creates an unique pin code sequence that is activated by pressing the buttons that are factory-installed on your dashboard and steering wheel. This will stop the thief from being able to start your car. If the wrong PIN is entered, it will stop the engine from starting which makes it impossible to leave with your pride and Joy.

Unlike physical deterrents like wheel locks and steering locks which can be cut or stolen the ghost immobiliser is a discrete electronic device that can't be recognized by ordinary thieves because it doesn't emit radio signals and operates in a silent manner.

This next generation immobiliser is able to protect your car from a range of threats including key-hacking, cloned keys and even relay attacks. It can also 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 before entering.

Unlike other immobilisers, the ghost immobiliser 2 does NOT require a key fobs or remotes to operate. It can be deactivated through an app on the driver's smartphone. This makes it perfect for the times you have to give your car to valet parking or for servicing without keys.

It also comes with built-in features that allow users to disable the Ghost-II simply by connecting to your vehicle's Bluetooth.

OBD port hacking

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

If you have a Ghost immobiliser, it can stop your car being stolen using this method by requiring that a unique PIN code sequence is entered into the fob of your key in order to start the engine and drive away. It communicates with the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) by using the CAN Data Circuit. This is undetectable by any RF scanning technology or code grabbing. It even comes with a Service/Valet option that will allow your vehicle to be started without the need for a PIN.

To make use of an OBD hacking device, you'll need to have a laptop that has software capable of reading the OBD protocol, which is available for less than PS100 on eBay or Amazon. You'll also require cables with OBD pins that connect to the CAN bus. These can be purchased on Amazon or Ebay for around PS50. The next step is to connect the cable into the wire harness of your car for example, in the radio wiring harness.

Once the hacker gains access to the OBD port of your vehicle, they will 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 stop or stop working.

No need to purchase additional remotes or key fobs

A car immobiliser is a fantastic piece of anti-theft technology used by millions of modern vehicles around the world. Utilizing engine ECU software to prevent vehicles from beginning if a false transponder signal is detected by it, an aftermarket immobiliser is an excellent method of protecting your vehicle.

The batteries in the majority of key fobs can be 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 the blank. They'll then be able to start your car.

With the TASSA approved Ghost 2 immobiliser, there are no remotes or keys to be purchased.

It is directly connected to the vehicles CAN data network and a personalised PIN code is programmed into it using buttons on your steering wheel & dash. The system blocks engine start and cannot be bypassed as no RF signals are emitted from the device. This makes it difficult to detect by sophisticated RF scanning and code grabbing techniques used by modern thieves.

The PIN code can be altered to lock out previous drivers, or even add an override code in case you forget the sequence. The installer will guide you through the process to do this during installation. The system has a valet-mode feature that can be used to temporarily disable pin input sequences so that the mechanic or garage can service the vehicle without having to know the pin number. This is a great choice for those who don't want their PIN sequence to be divulged, but want to leave their car with valet parking or service.

Unlike Thatcham products that require additional key-fobs in order to operate, Ghost is a discreet system that uses the buttons in your vehicle to create an unique and interchangeable PIN code sequence. This sequence is entered using the app on your smartphone, which means there are no additional LEDs thrown and your car is secure and safe from the possibility of being disabled by hackers or any other technology.
