Ghost immobilisers represent the latest in vehicle security. They are revolutionary because they shield your vehicle from key cloning and hacking.

The system requires the correct PIN code to start your car. This is done by pressing the buttons on the dashboard or steering wheel.

TASSA Approved

The brand new TASSA verified Ghost-II CAN immobiliser from autowatch ghost installers near me is a revolutionary device that was designed to combat recent car crime trends, including key hacking and cloning. This smart system connects directly to the onboard CAN network of your vehicle, and prevents it from being started or driven if you don't have the correct code. The system is completely undetectable and doesn't make use of radio frequencies or an electronic key fob, rather it lets you create an individual PIN sequence using existing buttons in your vehicle, such as those on the dashboard or steering wheel that you can alter at anytime. The PIN can be up to 20 times long for maximum security. A secure emergency code is also provided.

The system communicates with the vehicle's CAN data network to determine the moment a particular PIN has been entered. This then sends a signal back to the vehicle, which disables ignition and engine and shuts down crucial components such as the starter motor and the fuel pump. The system also offers valet mode, which allows you to disable the system and stop your car from being driven by valets or service centre personnel who do not have the correct key.

The Ghost device is unlike conventional immobilisers, which can be deactivated with professional diagnostic tools. It makes use of the onboard network to communicate with ECUs and can't be altered. It's a sealed unit so it is impossible to listen into the circuits, making it virtually impossible for thieves to detect the distinctive clicking noise that traditional immobiliser relays make.

This technology is also not susceptible to jamming devices used by high-tech thieves. Furthermore, since it is based on the CAN data network, it's not detectable by other diagnostic tools. This means it's a perfect anti-theft tool for any modern automobile.

This code will then prevent the vehicle from starting until the correct sequence is selected first. If the code is guessable there are emergency codes that can be reset via your mobile phone. There is also an app that can be used on iOS and Android to eliminate the need to enter pins each time, thereby providing greater security.

Discreet

Contrary to the GPS tracker which only assists in locating your vehicle after it's been stolen, an immobiliser system prevents the vehicle from being stolen in the first place. This is accomplished by preventing the engine from starting unless it receives the correct code from the key fob or smartphone application downloaded to it.
