Car Ghost Immobiliser
Ghost Immobiliser is an advanced system that blocks your vehicle from starting without an exclusive pin code sequence that is entered via buttons already in use (such as those on the steering wheel or dashboard). The device is invisible for thieves and operates quietly.
It also can help deter newer methods such as hotwiring and relay thefts. It could also lower your insurance premium.
No Radio Frequencies
A ghost immobiliser is different from a conventional one in that it does not transmit radio frequency, which makes it impossible for thieves to bypass the device using a cheap cloning tool. Ghost immobilisers prevent your car from starting in the event that a thief has copied or stolen your key.
Ghost immobilisers are effective against relay attacks. The signal from your keyfob is amplified to fool the system to allow your car to begin. The Ghost will recognize this and will not allow you to start the vehicle until you enter the PIN code. This is a fantastic way to deter thieves who are tech-savvy who are armed with affordable and easy-to-use tools to replicate your vehicle.
The Ghost can be set up discreetly, without causing damage to your car. It will only work after the correct pin sequence has been entered. It is only accessible to the owner, and nobody else will be able to use your vehicle unless they have your pin code. Certain systems let owners create valet or service mode to temporarily let someone else drive the vehicle without revealing their pin code, guarding them against thieves who might steal.
The Ghost is not just easy to use and quick to disarm but can also be linked to a car tracker, so that you can track your vehicle. Some insurers offer discounts on car insurance for vehicles that have Ghosts installed. This is a great benefit because it improves the security of your vehicle.
The Ghost immobiliser, while not Thatcham approved, is an aftermarket product that has been independently evaluated and found to work. If you're thinking about purchasing a used vehicle that comes with the Ghost immobiliser, inquire with the seller if they're willing to transfer it to the new vehicle. This will make your new car more secure than if the previous owner hadn't transferred it.
No Circuit Cuts
The absence of circuit cuts means that even if the car has been taken away, thieves will not be able to begin it. The thieves must be aware of the buttons used to unlock the vehicle and they will not be able to accomplish this without knowing the sequences. This will deter them and prevent them from attempting to steal.
If you have a GPS tracking device installed, the Ghost can act as an anti-theft device. It can send a signal to trigger a siren to alert the tracker of a theft attempt. This feature can be turned on at any time through your online dashboard.
When you connect your Ghost to the CAN data network it will identify your vehicle and the owner using the unique pin code you programmed during installation. This enables the device to communicate with your vehicle's ECU and immobilise the engine. This means that only the owner of the vehicle or a person with the PIN number, is able to start the engine.
Because the pin code was created from existing buttons within easy reach of the driver (such as cruise control and stereo mutes) it is mathematically inaccessible to be deciphered by potential thieves. Your engineer will also provide you with an emergency Pin Code override card which is similar to a scratch-off lottery ticket and simply needs to be scratched off to reveal the code and the directions.
In contrast to traditional immobilisers, which can often be discovered by thieves using diagnostics to read the immobiliser relay, your Ghost is undetectable by these methods as it doesn't employ radio frequencies or circuit cuts. It is therefore unaffected by the new techniques employed by organized gangs that are experts in the use of RF scanning technology and code-grabbing. It's also a lifetime product that can easily be removed from your car after you sell it, meaning that you will not lose any of the protection that you have put into.
No Key Fobs
With the rise of vehicle thefts in the UK It is imperative to take proactive measures required to protect precious vehicles from the opportunistic thieves. The revolutionary Ghost Immobiliser from Autowatch offers a solid defense against key cloning, hacking, and signal relay attacks. It's a subtle and highly effective car safety system that is easy for anyone to install.
The Ghost immobiliser isn't a typical system that relies on key fobs. It also doesn't use a signal relay. Therefore, auto ghost immobiliser is not affected by signal interception and is unable to be activated with stolen or compromised remotes. It's also tamperproof and doesn't have any external wiring, which makes it difficult to take off or disable.
It shields you from key-long hacking, key theft and key-long by blocking your engine from running until a specific PIN is entered. This is done by using existing buttons on the vehicle, such as those on the steering wheel or doors.
This is the only way for you to start your engine, and it only works if you have entered the correct pin code. This makes it very difficult for thieves to take your vehicle and is simple to use. If you're concerned about not remembering your pin code, you can request the installer to provide you with a driver's fob that permits you to operate the car in the normal way.
The absence of key fobs or LED indicators also means that the Ghost immobiliser is not detectable by the diagnostic equipment or RF scanners used by thieves to identify the presence of an electronic system. This stealth installation further increases its effectiveness and enables the system to be fitted in a place where it is difficult for thieves to access.
Ghost immobilisers can be an affordable, but efficient in preventing thefts and increase the value of your vehicle. Some insurance providers will also recognise them and offer reduced rates.
No Damage
If your car is fitted with a ghost ignition system, you will have peace of mind in knowing that your vehicle is secure against cloning, hacking, key fob theft and other popular methods of theft. This is especially crucial if you've invested a lot of money and time customising your car or own an uncommon or expensive model. Ghost immobilisers operate silently and require no additional parts or installation.
The system allows you to create an individual pin code that needs to be entered to allow the engine to begin. It works by using buttons on your steering wheel or console, as well as on your door panels. You can alter the sequence at any time. This means that even if someone knows your pin number they cannot start your vehicle. It is also simple to turn off the device in a service valet mode so that your vehicle can be taken away for cleaning, servicing or an MOT without it being activated.
The criminal won't be able to start your car when it's cloned and will thus be caught. The system will also notify you of any alteration to the wiring system in your vehicle like cutting or signal interception, and it can transmit this information to your smartphone and allow you to verify that the security of your vehicle is intact at all times.
You might want to turn off or remove the Ghost Immobiliser for reasons such as for maintenance or resale. In this case you must be very careful to not damage your vehicle's wiring. It is highly recommended to wear protective gloves during the process, and use a flashlight to illuminate the dark areas of your vehicle where the immobiliser might be installed. You could also consult any documentation you may have such as user guides or installation instructions to find the exact location of the device.
After the immobiliser has been removed from the wiring system, you can reconnect the battery in your car and check to ensure that it functions correctly and that all electrical components are functioning according to their intended purpose. You'll need electrical tape or soldering to insulate any wires which have been cut. Make sure that there aren't any exposed wires and that any cables that are hanging are secured with zip ties or other suitable method. Also, schedule a car check-up with a professional to make sure that the removal process did not harm any other systems in your vehicle.
