Get a Ghost Immobiliser Fitted to Protect Your Vehicle
The Autowatch Ghost is a next generation car immobiliser that guards your vehicle against key (and keyless) theft, cloning, and hacking of relays. It is a discreet device which is connected to your vehicle's data network CAN and operates silently.
It works by requiring a PIN code sequence made up of buttons on the steering wheel or on the centre console to activate it. It can also be activated to enable service mode, allowing the vehicle to start temporarily for use in the event of a need.
No Radio Signals
Installing a ghost immobiliser can be a great way to protect your car from key cloning or hacking. The system is silent, hidden inside the vehicle, and does not make use of radio signals to communicate. This makes it extremely difficult to be detected by thieves using radar scanners, as they can't see it or hear it.
It also stops cloning your vehicle's keyfob, by preventing the communication between the vehicle's CAN data network and the keyfob. Organised car thief gangs will often use sophisticated codes and RF scanning technology to deactivate and intercept security systems in vehicles. Ghost immobilisers are not visible to thieves as they don't emit any radio signals and are integrated into the vehicle's CAN data network, which means that there are no circuit breakers during installation and fitting, making them totally unnoticeable.
The ghost immobiliser prevents your car from being moved as well as preventing it from starting. This is particularly useful if you're going to be parking your vehicle in a public place, such as at garages or at a supermarket or to employ valet services to park your car for you. This feature is activated with an easy app for iOS or Android phones.
With the help of a GPS tracker, your vehicle can also be located. This will assist with the recovery of your vehicle should it be stolen. In recent years criminals have been able of overriding the security of vehicles by hacking the OBD port of the vehicle. However it is possible to prevent this by using a ghost-immobiliser that communicates directly with your vehicle's ECU via the CAN data circuit. This is not visible to high-tech diagnostics tools and is completely inaudible, meaning that a burglar is unable to insert a key or replace the ECU to start the vehicle.
The device is completely reversible, and it will not affect the warranty on your car. If you are interested in a ghost immobiliser, make sure you choose a TASSA approved installer. This will guarantee that the installer has passed a string of checks including identification and CRB.
No Circuit Cuts
When it comes to safeguarding your vehicle from theft through contactless, a ghost immobiliser is the best solution. This device is hidden in your car and prevents the engine from starting until certain buttons are pressed in a sequence (similarly to the PIN number on your smartphone).
It doesn't use radio frequency or key fobs to communicate therefore there is no lighting or noise to indicate its presence. Instead, it connects to your vehicle through the CAN data network and operates in a quiet manner, ensuring your vehicle is safe from thieves who do not want to be caught.
Many drivers are looking for ways to shield their vehicles from theft, as car theft is increasing. Unfortunately, stealing in demand vehicles is more prevalent than ever, and with the right equipment thieves can take a vehicle in hours.

No Key Fobs
Ghost immobilisers don't depend on your standard key fob to communicate with your vehicle. Instead, it uses buttons that are already present in your car, such as those on the steering wheel or door panels to create a unique pin code sequence that you have to enter to start your car. ghost car immobiliser is invisibly since it doesn't emit radio signals and communicates directly with the ECU by using the CAN data circuit. Diagnostic tools or keys stolen from your car cannot detect it.
This means that even if a burglar have the original key fob, they will need to know the exact pin code sequence to successfully start your car. The system also blocks key cloning, as well as device-spoofing and signal jamming the methods employed by thieves to open vehicles that have an immobiliser.
A ghost immobiliser is an excellent method of protecting your vehicle from thieves, particularly if you've invested an enormous amount of money and time customising it or if you own an expensive, rare or expensive car. The system can be remotely disarmed using a mobile app on iOS and Android, which is an excellent option if you're not sure who has your keys or where your car is parked.
Another advantage of the ghost immobiliser is that it can protect your vehicle from frequency amplification attacks that mimic relays. These are a popular way for high-tech thieves to rob PKE-equipped vehicles by capturing the frequency of the key fob and sending it to a co-conspirator, who can then use a remote starter to move your car. The system blocks this by cutting off your key fob's battery after a few minutes.
The Autowatch Ghost system comes with several other features that will ensure your vehicle is secure. They include the ability to prevent ECU swapping key cloning, key swapping and more. The CAN data network communicates with the ECU and makes it difficult for thieves to replace the ECU or add new keys to circumvent the system. The system requires you to enter a unique pin number to allow you to start your car. This can be done through the phone application which makes it more difficult for thieves to hack your vehicle.
Service Mode
The equipment required to scan and clone cars is becoming more affordable and accessible, whether you're a veteran car thief, or just beginning your criminal career. In fact, you can purchase complete cloning kits for your vehicle from the internet which makes it more essential than ever to secure your vehicle by installing a ghost immobiliser.
The ghost immobiliser functions in conjunction with your existing key fob and prevents your vehicle from starting until you enter a unique PIN. This sequence is created using buttons that are present in your vehicle such as those in the steering wheel, door panels, and the centre console. Only you know this pin code, and only you can start the engine. Without this, thieves will not be capable of driving your car away, even if they have your keys.
The ghost is directly connected to the ECU through the CAN network. This means that there's no chance to damage the vehicle. It's also a discrete option, since it does not depend on key fobs, or LED indicators. It is virtually undetectable to anyone who isn't the car's owner and doesn't interfere with jamming devices, or cuts to circuits. Additionally, it's secure against keyless entry or device spoofing technologies.
In addition to making it more difficult for thieves to steal your car, a ghost immobiliser can assist in reducing the cost of insurance. This is because there's no sign of instillation. Therefore, the insurance company will assume your car is anti-theft system that's factory-fitted into place.
