Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me

Modern day thieves can rob vehicles within 1 minute. They make use of the car's OBD port to hack into the ECU & then duplicate a key, all from an unnoticed laptop inside the car.

An Autowatch Ghost immobiliser prevents this by sending a sequence of pin codes through buttons on your vehicle (steering wheel & central console). It is completely inaccessible to anyone else in your vehicle.

No key fobs, or LED indicators to indicate its location

The ghost immobiliser is the best method to stop keyless entry theft and key copying. This device safeguards your vehicle from these types of attacks by blocking the engine when the correct pin code is entered. This is a highly efficient method of protecting your car, and insurance companies recognize it as a security measure that could help lower the cost of your insurance.

The way in which the ghost works is through connecting to your vehicle's CAN data network. Once installed by us at Car Theft Solutions it will only begin when you press the exact sequence of buttons using your personal override code. This means that any attempt to start the vehicle without entering this code will be greeted with a loud alarm, and the engine won't start. The criminal will realize that they've been caught and are likely to leave the vehicle and escape.

This 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 transmit any IR (infrared) signals like the typical remote key fobs to control the device or tracker do, making it difficult to deceive or hack.

Another benefit of the ghost is that it has a valet mode that can be activated when you give your vehicle to a valet service or parking. This disables the CAN immobiliser for 30mph, and allows you to operate the vehicle normally using your key fob or smartphone app. The Ghost will be fully functional when the vehicle is parked again.
