Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me

Modern thieves can steal a vehicle within a matter of minutes. They use the OBD port of the vehicle to hack into the ECU and then duplicate keys using an unprotected laptop inside the vehicle.

An Autowatch Ghost immobiliser prevents this by sending a series of pin codes through the buttons on your vehicle (steering wheel and central console). It is completely unnoticeable to anyone in your vehicle.

There are no key fobs or LED indicators, or any other methods to locate the vehicle are accessible.

The ghost immobiliser is the best method to protect against keyless entry theft and key cloning. This device safeguards your vehicle from these types of attacks by preventing the engine from running after a correct pin code is entered. This is an extremely effective method of safeguarding your car, and insurance companies see it as a safety measure that can reduce the cost of your policy.

The way in which the ghost ii immobiliser works is by connecting to your vehicle's CAN data network. Once installed by us at Car Theft Solutions it will only start when you enter a specific button sequence using your personalised override code. This means that any attempt to start the vehicle without entering this code will be met with a loud alarm, and the engine won't start. The thief then realizes that they've been caught and will most likely leave the vehicle.

The Ghost system has the advantage of not transmitting any signals, like the tracker. Thieves cannot utilize RF receivers to determine your Ghost unit's location. It also does not send out any IR (infrared) signals like the standard remote control key fobs or trackers do, making it very hard to bypass or hack.

Another benefit of the ghost is that it features an option for valet parking that can be activated when you give your vehicle to a valet service or parking. This will disable the immobiliser on the CAN for 30mph and allow you to use the vehicle normally using your key fob or smartphone app. When the vehicle is set up, the Ghost will return to full functionality.

No cloning or hacking

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is one of most advanced available. It safeguards your vehicle from hacking and key cloning which makes it almost impossible to take. The only way a thief could take your vehicle is to physically tow it away & even then they won't be able to start the engine.

This is due to the fact that unlike other immobilisers that stop your car from starting if they do not have your fob, this clever system actually disconnects the engine control unit, ensuring that the vehicle is unable to start. It does this by transmitting a signal via buttons on your steering wheel or door panel, or on your central console which can only be disabled by entering the correct pin code configuration, it is this feature that makes the Ghost impossible to break.

Its discreet and sleek design means that it fits seamlessly into your vehicle without any additional keys or LED indications and it operates independently of your factory alarm or tracker. It is also a CAN bus immobiliser, which means it sits within the control area network of your vehicle and is not interfering with any existing devices like your vehicle's key fob or alarm.

In contrast to other systems that rely on code grabbing or RF scanning, this unique technology is undetectable to thieves as it only sends an unobtrusive sequence of pin codes through the buttons on your vehicle's steering wheel and door panels as well as the central console. The Ghost is an innovative device that protects your vehicle against keyless entry and smart key theft by generating a unique, personalised pin code that must be entered in order to disable it.

The number of vehicles that have no keyless entry in circulation is increasing. Thieves are becoming sophisticated and employ devices to clone your vehicle that can be purchased online or in classifieds for less than PS15. They can then use this cloned fob to gain access to your vehicle. The standard immobiliser will stop the vehicle from starting if the person who stole it has your original key fob. This isn't enough security, and it's easy for criminals to jam or fake signals to unlock the vehicle.

Valet mode

A standard immobiliser fitted to your vehicle uses an electronic chip that transmits a signal when you press your key fob button. The system will then look for the particular code you have that was sent from the key to start the vehicle. If the correct signal cannot be received, the system will cut off the power and prevent the vehicle from beginning. This is the basic principle behind all aftermarket immobilisers and is a vital security measure to ensure that your car isn't stolen even if a thief has your keys or a device that could increase the signal from your key fob.

However, a ghost immobiliser does not just stop it however, it goes far beyond that. The system, which sits on the CAN bus of your Mercedes, is programmed with a unique PIN code that has to be entered to start the vehicle. The sequence is then encrypted in your app, and only anyone else will be able to access it without having the same pin as you.

The system also stops cloning, hacking and signal jamming (which could be used by thieves to bypass the immobiliser on your vehicle). If a criminal manages to get their hands on your keys to your car or fob, they will not be able to start your car even if it is parked nearby. The only way for them to escape with your car is to physically take it away in the flatbed of a lorry, which is incredibly unlikely.

Valet mode is a handy feature that comes with your ghost immobiliser. When it is turned on the glove box as well as trunk of your car will be locked. This means that anyone attempting to take your car away will not have anything personal to take. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla so that it can't be driven at speeds of more than 70mph, and it will also disable the ridiculous mode. It will also block your driver profiles and conceal your home and work addresses so that no one other person can access your private data on your Tesla dashboard.

If you want to use your car for valet parking, or service, choose the 'Valet/Service' mode in the dashboard app. Enter your 4-digit valet code on the touchscreen. After this is done, the alarm functions will be bypassed, but it will still block the ability to start your car until a valid pin has been entered. This is ideal for those who have to hand over their vehicle to other people such as taxi drivers and garage mechanics.

The first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser

The Autowatch Ghost provides unparalleled security and is the only aftermarket CAN-bus immobiliser in the world. It safeguards your vehicle from key cloning, hacking, and even key theft. It does this through the vehicle's current interface. It doesn't require remotes or fobs in addition to it but is integrated into the vehicle's CAN data network. This makes it a stealth gadget.

The device is a circuit board buried in the engine control unit (ECU). It functions quietly. Once activated, it'll stop the car from starting unless you enter a PIN. This is the code you will receive when you request an installation. This number is needed to activate valet mode, turn off the alarm, or permit you to leave in the car of a friend (if they have Ghost installed). Ghost installed as well).

It is designed to be invisible from the interior of your car. It does not emit radio signals, but only produces sounds when it is activated. It can be placed in a variety of places, making it virtually impossible to spot. It is also low-maintenance and can be incorporated in conjunction with other systems, such as a tracker (Brand dependent) to offer the most complete anti-theft system.

Many people choose to install ghost immobilisers because they feel that the existing security measures aren't enough to protect their pride and joy. Physical deterrents like wheel clamps and steering wheel locks are excellent options, but they are not considered "theft-proof" by thieves since they are easily beaten with the appropriate tools. Ghost immobilisers, however, can't be deceived by thieves as it is covertly integrated within the vehicle and if activated, it would shut down parts like the starter motor or fuel system.

The best part is that a ghost immobiliser can be installed for as little as PS450, which is a fraction of the cost of other products out there. It also will protect your vehicle from being taken away!
