20 Fun Informational Facts About Ghost 2 Immobiliser Installation
Autowatch Ghost II Immobiliser Installation

Ghost immobilisers are the newest technology in vehicle security. They are revolutionary in how they safeguard your vehicle from hacking, key-cloning and even wheel jacking.

The system uses an unique disarm sequence requiring the correct PIN code to start your car. This is done by pressing the buttons of your dashboard or steering wheel.

TASSA Approved

The brand new TASSA verified Ghost-II CAN immobiliser from Autowatch is a revolutionary device designed to combat recent car criminality trends, such as key cloning and hacking. This sophisticated system can connect directly to your vehicle's CAN data network, preventing your vehicle from being started or driven without the correct code. The system is completely undetectable and doesn't utilize radio frequencies or keys, but instead it allows you to create a unique PIN sequence by using existing buttons in your vehicle such as those on the dashboard or steering wheel, which you can change at anytime. The PIN can be up to 20 times long for maximum security. A secure emergency code is also available.

The system works by communicating with the vehicles CAN data network to identify when a specific PIN has been entered, this is then sent to the vehicle that disables the engine and ignition, and shuts down crucial components such as the starter motor and fuel pump. The system comes with a "valet' mode which allows you to disable it and prevent valets or employees from driving your car without the correct key.

The Ghost device is distinct from traditional immobilisers, which can be deactivated using professional diagnostic tools. It utilizes the onboard network to communicate with ECUs and can't be altered. It is a sealed unit, so it's impossible to monitor the circuits. This makes it nearly impossible for thieves to hear the tell-tale clicking sound that traditional immobiliser relays emit.

This technology is also not vulnerable to jamming devices used by high-tech thieves, and because it works on the CAN data network it's also undetectable to any other diagnostic tools. This makes it a great anti-theft solution for any modern vehicle.

We will visit your office or home to install the system once you've scheduled the installation. We'll go through a complete demonstration with you, and provide the owner's manual and an emergency card, two Autowatch window stickers and an installation certificate.


Insurance Approved

The Ghost is an aftermarket security device that shields your vehicle from the types of thieves who would be interested in stealing your car. It prevents your engine from starting until certain buttons are activated. The only person who can know the sequence is you. If your car is stolen the thieves won't be able to start it, and they will leave your vehicle alone out of fear. The ghost has a'silent' mode that shuts down the vehicle when it is not being used. It can be disabled by pressing the button.

It can be used in conjunction with other Thatcham approved security measures such as trackers to protect your vehicle from being taken and provides extra security.

The system also communicates with the ECU of your vehicle through the CAN data loop, which is inaudible to diagnostic tools. This means that a burglar cannot simply add a new key or change the ECU to get around the Ghost. The system will only allow your vehicle to start when the correct pin code is entered. This unique PIN code is only available to you & can be changed at any time.

The Ghost is an immobiliser that can easily be incorporated into any vehicle without the necessity of additional key fobs or wiring. It is linked directly to the vehicles data network CAN and an individual PIN code of your choice is programmed into it by using the buttons on the steering wheel and dashboard. This code will prevent the vehicle from being started until the correct sequence has been chosen first. If the code is misinterpreted, there are secure emergency codes that can be reset using your mobile phone. There is an application that works on iOS and Android to reduce the requirement of entering pins every time, providing more security.

The shrewd

An immobiliser, unlike a GPS tracker, which helps you find your car after it's taken away, can stop the vehicle from ever being stolen in the first in the first place. This is done by stopping the engine from starting until it is given the correct code from the key fob or a smartphone app that is downloaded to it. This is a fantastic way to prevent wheel-jacking and other forms of theft, as the thief is forced to leave the car in its place or risk being caught.

The ghost immobiliser, which is a tiny weatherproof device, is tucked away in the wiring harness of your vehicle. It is concealed and has a connection with the CAN data network. This means that thieves can't identify it or disable it by cutting wires. The system has a service-mode that can be set to let your garage work on your car without having to know the passcode.

Once ghost immobiliser installer got the device installed in your vehicle, you'll be able to arm and disarm it from your smartphone using its dedicated app. You can alter the PIN code at any time you want to ensure that you're the only one who has access to your car.
