What is a ghost 2 immobiliser review Immobiliser and Tracker?

An immobiliser is a device that stops your car from starting if you do not have the right key or fob. It can help to lower your insurance premium for your car as well.

The ghost system generates an individual pin code by using the buttons on your vehicle's steering wheel, centre console or door panels. You can alter it. Imagine it as a PIN for credit card, but much safer (up to 20 button press). It is undetectable and works completely silently on the CAN data network.

Easy to install

A ghost immobiliser is a device that is attached to the engine of your vehicle to prevent it from getting started without the correct PIN. It's not just easy to install but also tamper-proof which makes it a fantastic choice for car owners in Bolton Rochdale.

The Ghost is a CAN bus immobiliser that protects your car better than anything else on the market today. It protects your vehicle against key-cloning and hacking (relay attacks) as well as the theft of your keys from home. By preventing the engine from running it stops your vehicle from being targeted by hackers.

It is not detectable by sophisticated scanners and can't be deactivated with simple wire cutting. It's also unnoticeable to professional thieves employing these methods, since it does not transmit signals that could easily be detected by diagnostic tools.

The device makes use of the buttons that are in your car (steering wheels, door panels or centre consoles) to generate a unique and changeable PIN sequence that only you can access. This code is entered by using your smartphone or a secret button located on the Ghost device. It's impossible for anyone else to access this sequence unless it's you. This is why it is a great way to deter criminals, since they can't escape without being aware of them and alerting you to their presence.

If you change vehicles in the course of your ownership, you are able to move the Ghost from one vehicle to the next as long as it has an CAN bus that is compatible. It's a simple procedure that won't void your warranty, as it works on the CAN data network. It's not necessary to change your steering wheel or status indicators. The Ghost is much less expensive and easier to install than wheel locks, tracking systems or trackers.

There aren't any keyfobs, LEDs or other indicators to assist you in finding it.

We all consider our cars to be a source of pride and joy in our lives. With this in mind, it is understandable that some people will spend a considerable amount of money on keeping their vehicle clean. However, it's essential to ensure that our vehicle is secure.

Criminals are becoming more brazen, and they can attack keyless entry systems to steal your vehicle even though the keys are in the ignition. They could even do this from the inside of your home. They can then employ relay devices to copy the unique signal of your car and then start it without your knowledge. Even though these vehicles are generally equipped with a tracker, this can be disabled with a few tricks.

Autowatch has developed a revolutionary solution to prevent this, dubbed Ghost. It is the first aftermarket CAN-bus immobiliser available on the market that protects your vehicle like no other. It is TASSA (Tracker and Aftermarket Security Systems Association), verified and approved by insurance companies, meaning you can save money on your auto insurance.

This revolutionary device was designed to be inaccessible to thieves and uses the existing buttons in your steering wheel and dashboard to generate a unique PIN sequence up to 20 digits that must be entered to start the engine. This system cannot be detected using RF scanning or code-grabbing technology. It is only deactivated with an app for smartphones or your key fob or two smartphones.

It's also quiet and a burglar would not be able to tell it was in your car. Also, since it is connected to the CAN network, it can't be disconnected from the ECU.

Other options include a valet function that allows you to start your vehicle for a short period of time to clean or maintenance, a PIN-change function in the event that you forget your PIN, and the maintenance and service mode to ensure you can still drive when you require to. The device can be placed on different places in your car. Our certified Ghost installers will install it in a way that there are no permanent marks on the interior of your vehicle.

No RF scanning technology or code-grabbing technology.

The Ghost Immobiliser doesn't use RF scanning technology or code-grabbing, which is the method by which thieves target vehicles to steal key fobs and gain access to the computer of your car to create blank keys for your car. It utilizes the buttons on your dashboard as well as the steering wheel to communicate with your vehicle. It's therefore completely hidden and invisible, since it's not visible. This also means that no additional wiring is required, as the Ghost will work with your vehicle's CAN data network which means that there are no circuit cuts when it is installed or operating and is quiet.

It stops anyone from starting your car without a unique pin or smartphone authorization, so you will never be left with an empty vehicle. This means that even if your vehicle is stolen through key cloning, relay theft or ECU swapping thieves won't be capable of starting your car, making them more likely to just leave it to avoid being caught.

A secret 'password' for buttons is created by using the buttons you have on your dash board and steering wheel that only you know (as with a PIN number on a credit card). The system will begin the engine in the service valet mode if you press. This mode requires a different PIN or you can open it using the Autowatch App on your phone. The app can be used to lock or unlock your car. This lets you leave your car to be cleaned or to leave it without fearing that it could be stolen or that keys are not inside it.

The Ghost is a discrete and cost-effective option to protect your car from contactless theft. It is TASSA-approved and may reduce insurance costs. You can drive in confidence knowing you are securing your prized possessions. The Ghost is compatible with a variety of vehicles, including vans and motorhomes and allows you to be confident wherever you go.

No extra wiring

The ghost immobiliser is mounted directly in the vehicle and is connected to the CAN data network. This is why it's so effective. The device does not require any after - market key fobs but instead uses the buttons that are already on your car's steering wheel and dashboard to generate an unique PIN code that is entered before the engine is able to start. This sequence can be as long or as short as you like and can even contain numbers or letters that make it as secure as credit cards. You can alter it at any time.

It is important to know that ghost is not a Thatcham-approved device, unlike wheel locks or other tracker devices made for after-market. The device is TASSA-approved and many insurance companies recognise it as a security device that can reduce your premiums.

Due to its discrete method of working it is unable to be detected by thieves. It is an excellent option for those looking to ensure their vehicles are safe and secure whilst travelling abroad or for use with valet parking & service companies. The device comes with a Valet mode that is activated. This allows the driver to begin and drive the vehicle with set parameters such as 30mph speed limit, without having to enter the pin code. It is then removed and activated when you return to your car.

This feature is particularly useful for those who use their vehicles on a regular basis, such as valet service and taxi drivers. It can also be utilized for family, friends or work colleagues, allowing them to temporarily start your car whilst it's in the garage to do maintenance or a wash. The Ghost can be activated by entering the PIN code after you're back in control of your car.

Contrary to many other after-market security products, the Ghost is fully sealed and very small, meaning it can be hidden inside your vehicle. Its small size also means there is no trace of the device and it won't damage your vehicle in any way.
