What Is Ghost Immobiliser And Why Is Everyone Speakin' About It?

Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me

Modern criminals can steal a car within a matter of minutes. They use the cars OBD port to hack into the ECU & then duplicate a key, all from a laptop hidden in the car.

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser prevents this by sending pin codes to buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels & central console). It is completely inaccessible to anyone else in your car.

There are no key fobs or LED indicators or other methods to locate the vehicle are in place.

If you're looking for a way to stop keyless entry theft or key cloning then you should look no further than the ghost immobiliser. This device protects your vehicle from these kinds of attacks by blocking the engine after the proper pin code is entered. This is a very effective method of safeguarding your car, and even insurance companies recognize it as a precautionary measure that can help reduce the cost of your insurance.

The way the ghost works is through connecting to your vehicle's CAN data network, once installed by us at Car Theft Solutions it will only start when you enter the specific sequence of buttons with your unique override code. This means that any attempt to start the vehicle without entering this code will be met by a loud siren and the engine will not start. The thief will then realise that they've been caught and will likely to leave the vehicle and run off.

One of the major advantages of this system is that it doesn't transmit any signals like trackers, which means that thieves cannot make use of RF signal receivers to pinpoint the location of your Ghost device. It also doesn't transmit any IR (infrared) signals like the usual remote key fobs for control or trackers do, making it extremely difficult to deceive or hack.

Another advantage of the ghost is that it comes with the valet mode which can be activated when you give your vehicle to a valet service or parking. This disables the immobiliser CAN for 30mph, and allow you to use the vehicle in normal mode using your key fob or smartphone app. The Ghost will be fully functional when the vehicle is returned to its parked position.

The autowatch ghost installer Ghost immobiliser is one of the most advanced models on the market. It shields your vehicle from key cloning and hacking, making it nearly impossible to take. The only method to steal your car is physically remove it. Even then, they won't be able start the engine.

This is due to the fact that unlike other immobilisers which simply stop your vehicle from starting if don't have a fob, the clever system actually shuts off the engine control unit in order to prevent the vehicle from being started. 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 sleek and discreet design means that it fits into your vehicle seamlessly without any additional keys or LED indications - it runs independently from your alarm system or tracker from factory. It is also a CAN bus immobiliser, which means it is part of your vehicle's control area network and is not interfering with any existing devices like the built-in key fob or alarm.

In contrast to other systems that rely on codes grabbing or RF scanning the Ghost's unique technology is indestructible to thieves as it only sends an unobtrusive sequence of pin codes through the buttons on your vehicle's steering wheel doors, door panels, or the central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary device that shields your vehicle from theft of keyless entry and smart key theft. It does this by generating an unique pin code which needs to be entered to disable the device.

The number of keyless entry vehicles 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 the fob that was cloned to gain entry to your vehicle. A standard vehicle immobiliser stops the engine from running when you have your original key fob. This does not offer enough security and is easy for criminals to spoof or jam signals to unlock the vehicle.

Valet mode

Standard immobilisers fitted to your vehicle use an electronic chip that sends an indication. The system will then search for the code transmitted by the key to start the vehicle. If the signal is not able to be detected the system will shut off the power and prevent the car from starting. This is the basic principle behind all aftermarket immobilisers and is a crucial security measure to ensure that your vehicle cannot be stolen, even if someone else has your keys or a device that could enhance the signal of your key fob.

However, a ghost immobiliser does not only stop it from happening but it also goes a step further. The system, which sits on the CAN bus of your Mercedes, is programmed with a unique PIN code push sequence that must be entered in order to start the vehicle. The sequence is then encrypted in your app, and no one else can access it without the same pin as you.

The system will also stop cloning, signal jamming and hacking (which thieves may use to bypass the immobiliser in your car). This means that if a thief does manage to get your car keys or key fob, they will not be in a position to start your vehicle, even if they are parked within only a few feet of it. The only way to escape with your car would be to physically take it away on the flatbed of a lorry which is extremely unlikely.

Valet mode is a handy feature that comes with your ghost immobiliser. When it is turned on the glove box and trunk of your car will be locked. This means that anyone who tries to take your car away will not have anything personal to take. It also limits the speed of your Tesla so that it cannot be driven at speeds of more than 70mph. It will also disable ludicrous modes. It will also hide your work and home addresses, lock your driver profiles, and also lock your Tesla dashboard to ensure that no one else can access your private information.

If you want to use your car as valet parking, or for service, choose the 'Valet/Service' mode on the dashboard app. Enter your 4-digit valet code onto the touchscreen. The alarm will no longer work, however the car won't begin unless you enter a valid pin. This is a great option for those who need to transfer their car to others like taxi drivers or garage mechanics.

It can be placed in a variety of locations, making it almost impossible to detect.

Many people choose to install ghost immobilisers because they feel that the existing security measures are not sufficient to protect their pride and joy. Physical deterrents like wheel clamps and steering wheel locks are great options, but they are not considered "theft-proof" by thieves since they can be easily defeated with the right tools.
