Protect Your Pride And Joy With The Ghost Immobiliser

Secure your prized possessions from theft by using the Ghost Immobiliser. It's discreet and doesn't require additional key fobs.

The device makes use of buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels doors, door panels and the centre console) to create a unique pin code sequence that can be altered up to 20 times. This allows your vehicle to start.

Simple PIN Code Change Process

Many homeowners are upgrading their security because of the increase in vehicle theft. There are a variety of security devices that are sold aftermarket, from tracking systems to alarms and immobilisers. However there are a few that are equally efficient in protecting your vehicle. A tracking system can aid in finding your vehicle in the event of it being stolen however, it won't stop the crime. Immobilisers, on the contrary perform exactly as they say on the tin - they shut off your car's engine to prevent it from being started. The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is one of the most advanced options on the market, making it nearly impossible for thieves to steal your car.

The ghost device utilizes the buttons on your car to generate a unique sequence which must be entered to allow the engine to start. This can be accomplished using the indicator stalk windows or heater buttons. In addition to this, there is also an app for mobile devices that can function as an emergency PIN code bypass and allow the driver to operate the car without using the button sequence. This is a great option for those who want to offer your car to valet parking or for maintenance. The immobiliser will stay active.

The Ghost is an unique and innovative device that works with the buttons of your vehicle instead of as a standalone unit. It's not just an effective deterrent to theft of your vehicle, but it can be used to secure any future vehicles you may own. This makes it a far better investment than a traditional wheel lock.

Weatherproof small device

The Autowatch ghost immobiliser is a sophisticated security system that protects your vehicle from key cloning, hacking & ECU swapping. It is a small, weatherproof device that communicates with the ECU of your vehicle directly over the CAN bus to stop the motor. It can be fitted into the vehicle without additional wiring and has been thoroughly tested to ensure compatibility with all vehicles. It is also indestructible to jamming devices that are a common technique used by car thieves to circumvent the immobilisers in place.

The benefit of using CAN data is that it runs silently in comparison to conventional systems. It's not detected by sophisticated RF scanning or code-grabbing technology and is also unrecognizable by conventional diagnostic tools. The Autowatch Ghost does not use LED indicators but instead utilizes buttons in your vehicle, such as the steering wheel, centre console, or door panels, to create a an unique sequence of disarming. You can make this sequence as long as 20 presses to increase security. The iPhone app allows only one connection, with a unique pairing code for the Ghost. All communication between the two devices is encrypted.

The Ghost will stop car thieves from putting in a new ignition key or replacing the ECU in order to bypass the immobiliser. It will only allow the engine to start if the correct PIN code is entered. It is possible to operate temporarily in valet or service mode (with parameters set, such as 30mph speed limit) and, therefore, you can hand your car to an attendant or valet without having to enter a code.

Every vehicle is tested

The Autowatch Ghost is the first aftermarket CANbus immobiliser. It can be connected to the wiring of your vehicle and to the engine control unit (ECU). The device intercepts electronic signals to disable your car's system from performing its normal startup routine until you input the passcode you have created. The system can be activated or deactivated using your own smartphone app without the need for additional wires.

Standard factory immobilisers on vehicles function by using an electronic transponder in the key that sends a signal to the ECU. The car will begin to start if the correct code is transmitted. If, however, the transponder of a different vehicle is used instead, the immobiliser won't recognize it. This allows the vehicle be stolen and started. A South African company that is at the forefront of safety systems technology created the Ghost immobiliser. It guards you against key cloning or hacking, and even key theft. The only way thieves could steal your car is physically towing it away, and even then they wouldn't be able to drive it.

Ghost uses the buttons in your car, such as the indicator stalk as well as the steering wheel and door panels to create an individual PIN code that is changeable that needs to be entered before you are able to use your car. This is done without extra hardware, such as keys fobs. It can take up to 20 presses. It is also undetectable to diagnostics equipment and does not transmit radio frequency signals, which means thieves cannot make use of sophisticated RF scanning or code grabbing techniques to detect that security systems have been installed.

Contrary to physical anti-theft devices such as clamps or wheel locks Ghost is covertly integrated into the vehicle to ensure that it can't be disabled or removed by thieves. It's even more difficult to get rid of than a car alarm, which requires disarming with a button sequence. This makes it a fantastic complement to a GPS tracking device that can be used to locate your vehicle after it's stolen.

Emergency PIN code override

You don't have to look far on social media to find stories or videos about cars that have been stolen with the latest technology tools. This includes key-cloning and hacking tools that allow the vehicle to start without the original key fobs.

The Ghost immobiliser has been designed to stop this, and give you an additional layer of security to prevent your vehicle from being targeted by thieves. It is created by creating an individual pin code push sequence using the buttons you have on the steering wheel, door panel, and centre console. The unique pin code is entered along with your original key fob in order to stop the engine from getting started. The unique override pin is found on a black plastic card that you receive following your installation. It is easy to remember because there are no LED indicators.

The device is hidden in the vehicle's wires, and does not emit radio signals, therefore it cannot be detected by modern criminals with diagnostic software that can recognise what is a ghost immobiliser [Http://ncg.kr/bbs/board.php?Bo_table=support_03&wr_id=225655] type of security system you have installed. This makes it a great alternative to an alarm.

Unlike most other security systems that have an engine relay bay, these CANBUS Immobilisers connect with the vehicle's ECU and BCM via CAN data bus (brand dependant). This enables them to shut down the vehicle completely by sending a digital block of commands to both the ECU and the engine.

These systems can also be linked to an analog alarm, immobiliser or tracker. This should be decided prior to the installation. They are also fully service/valet mode compatible and a good alternative to a tracker if you are having your car in for repairs to an electrical issue at the dealership.

Service/Valet Mode

In recent years there has been an rise in the number of vehicles that are stolen without owners' keys.
