Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me

Modern criminals can steal a car in under a minute. They make use of the OBD port of the vehicle to hack into the ECU and then duplicate a key using a laptop that is hidden inside the vehicle.

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser prevents this by sending pin codes to buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels and central console). It is completely undetectable by anyone inside your vehicle.

No key fobs or LED indicators or other methods of locating the vehicle are accessible.

The ghost immobiliser is a great method to protect against keyless entry theft and key cloning. This device safeguards your vehicle from these types of attacks by preventing the engine from running when the proper pin code is entered. This is a very efficient method of safeguarding your car, and car insurance companies recognise it as a safety measure that can reduce the cost of your insurance.

The way in which the ghost immobilisers works is through connecting to your vehicle's CAN data network, once installed by us at Car Theft Solutions it will only start when you press the specific sequence of buttons with your unique override code. The engine will not begin in the event that you attempt to start your vehicle without the code. The criminal then realizes they've been caught and will most likely leave the vehicle.

One of the major advantages of this system is that it doesn't transmit any signals, like trackers, which means that thieves can't make use of RF signal receivers to determine the location of your Ghost device. It doesn't emit IR (infrared signals) like standard remote control key fobs and trackers, making it difficult to hack or evade.

The Ghost also comes with valet-mode which can be activated if you are handing your vehicle to an individual for parking or service. This will disable the immobiliser CAN 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.

No hacking or cloning

The Autowatch Ghost is one of the most advanced immobilisers available on the market. It protects your car from key cloning and hacking making it nearly impossible to take. The only way a thief could steal your vehicle is by physically towing it away, and even then they won't be in a position to start the engine.

This is because, unlike other immobilisers which only stop your vehicle from starting if they do not have your fob, this system actually shuts off the engine control unit, ensuring that the vehicle is unable to start. The system transmits a message through buttons on the steering wheel, door panel, or the centre console. It can only be disarmed with the proper pin code configuration.

Its discreet and sleek design ensures that it will fit in seamlessly into your vehicle, without any additional keys or LED indications - it runs independently from your alarm system or tracker from factory. It is a CAN-bus immobiliser, which means it sits in your vehicle's control network and does no interfere with existing devices like your car's key fob or alarm.

This unique technology isn't detectable by thieves, unlike other systems that employ RF scanning and code grabbing. It simply sends a series of pin codes that are silently transmitted through the buttons on your vehicle's steering wheel or door panels, or central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary product that safeguards your vehicle from keyless entry theft and smart key theft. It does this by generating an unique pin code which needs to be entered in order to disable the device.

With the increasing number of keys-less entry vehicles on the road The thieves are becoming sophisticated and are using cloning equipment which can be purchased via classifieds or online for less than PS15. They can then use the cloned fob to gain access to your vehicle. A standard vehicle immobiliser prevents the engine from starting when you have your original key fob. This is not enough security and is easy for criminals to alter or block signals to unlock the vehicle.

Valet mode

An immobiliser that is standard on your vehicle is an electronic chip that transmits a signal when you press your key fob button. The system then searches for the specific code that was that is sent by the key to start the car. If the correct signal cannot be received, the system will cut off the power and prevent the vehicle from beginning. This is the basis of all aftermarket car immobilisers. It is a vital measure to prevent your car from being stolen, even if a person has your keys or a device that could increase the signal from your key fob.

However, a ghost immobiliser doesn't only stop that however, it goes far beyond that. The system, which is on the CAN bus of your Mercedes, is programmed with a unique PIN that has to be entered in order to start the vehicle. It is then secured on your app and no one can ever access it unless they have the exact pin you have.

The system also stops hacking, cloning, and signal jamming (which could be used by thieves to circumvent the immobiliser on your vehicle). If a thief manages to get their hands on your car keys or key fob, they won't be able to start your car even if it is located nearby. The only way to escape with your car is to physically transport it away in the flatbed of a lorry which is extremely unlikely.

Valet mode is a useful feature that is included with your ghost immobiliser. When it is activated, the glove box and trunk of your vehicle will be locked. This means that anyone trying to steal your car will not have anything personal to steal. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla, so that it is not able to be driven at speeds of more than 70mph. It also will disable insane modes. It will also block your driver profiles and conceal your home and work addresses so that nobody other person can access your personal data on your Tesla dashboard.

If you would like to make use of your car for valet parking or service reasons, simply choose the 'Valet/Service' mode in the dashboard app and enter your 4-digit valet pin on the touchscreen. The alarm won't work, but the car won't begin until you have entered a valid pin. This is ideal for those who need to transfer their vehicle to others, like taxi drivers or garage mechanics.
