Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me
Modern thieves can rob a car in under a minute. They use 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 car immobiliser immobiliser can prevent this by sending pin codes to buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels and central console). It is completely inaccessible to anyone else in your car.
There are no key fobs or LED indicators to reveal its location
If you're looking for a solution to stop keyless entry theft or key cloning, then you should look at the ghost immobiliser. This device is designed to safeguard your vehicle from these kinds of attacks by blocking the engine once a correct pin code has been entered. This is a highly efficient method of safeguarding your car, and insurance companies recognize it as a precautionary measure that can help reduce the cost of your insurance.
The way the ghost works is by connecting to your vehicles CAN data network, once installed by us at Car Theft Solutions it will only start when you enter a specific button sequence using your personalised override code. The engine will not begin in the event that you attempt to start your vehicle without having the code. The thief will then realise that they've been caught and will likely to leave the vehicle and flee.
One of the main advantages of this system is that it doesn't transmit any signals as trackers, which means that thieves cannot make use of RF signal receivers to pinpoint the location of your Ghost device. It doesn't emit IR (infrared signals) like standard remote control key fobs or trackers, making it difficult to hack or evade.
Another benefit of the ghost is that it comes with the valet mode which can be activated when you hand your vehicle over to a valet service or
Ghost Immobiliser Installation parking. This will disable the immobiliser on the CAN for 30mph and allow you to use the vehicle as normal with your key fob or mobile app. The Ghost will be fully functional when the vehicle is back in its parking spot.

No cloning or hacking
The Autowatch Ghost is one of the most advanced immobilisers on the market, it protects your car from key cloning and hacking making it near impossible to take. The only way thieves could steal your car is by physically towing it away, and even then they wouldn't be capable of starting the engine.
This is because unlike other immobilisers that simply stop your vehicle from starting if do not have a fob, the Ghost's clever system actually disconnects the engine control unit to prevent the vehicle from starting. This system works by sending messages through buttons on the steering wheel, door panel, or the centre console. It can only be disarmed with the proper pin code configuration.
Its sleek and discrete design allows it to seamlessly into your vehicle without the need for additional keys or LED indicators. It runs independently of your factory tracker or alarm. It's a CAN-bus immobiliser, meaning that it sits in the vehicle's control network and does no interfere with other devices such as your car's key fob or alarm.
This unique technology is not easily detected by thieves unlike other systems that rely on RF scanning and code grabbing. It only sends pin codes silently through the buttons on your vehicle's steering wheels, door panels, or central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary device that protects your vehicle against keyless entry and smart key theft by generating an individual, personalized pin code that needs to be entered to disarm it.
The number of keyless entry vehicles that are on the road is growing. Thieves are getting more sophisticated and are using devices to clone your vehicle that can be purchased through classifieds or online for under PS15. They can then use this fob that was cloned to gain entry to your vehicle. The standard immobiliser will only stop the car from starting if the criminal has your original key fob. It's not enough security, and it's easy to get criminals to jam or spoof signals to unlock the vehicle.
Valet mode
A standard immobiliser fitted to your vehicle has an electronic chip that transmits a signal when you press your key fob button, the system will then look for the particular code you have sent from the key to start the car. If the correct signal cannot be received the system will shut off the power and stop the car from starting. This is the basis of all aftermarket car immobilisers. It's a crucial step to protect your vehicle from being stolen, even if someone has your keys or a device that could enhance the signal of your key fob.
However, a ghost immobiliser does not just stop it but it also goes a step further. The system, which is on the CAN bus of your Mercedes is programmed with a unique PIN push sequence that must be entered to start the vehicle. This is then locked in your application, and no anyone else will be able to access it without the same unique pin that you have.
The system will also stop signal jamming, cloning and hacking (which thieves may use to bypass the immobiliser in your car). This means that if someone does somehow get hold of your car keys or key fob they won't be in a position to start your vehicle even if just only a few feet of it. They could only get your car off a flatbed truck which is extremely unlikely.
Valet mode is a useful feature that comes with your ghost immobiliser. When activated the glove box as well as trunk of your car will be locked. This means that anyone attempting to steal your car will not have anything valuable to take. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla, so it can't be driven more than 70mph. It will also turn off absurd modes. It will also hide your work and home addresses and lock your driver profiles, and secure your Tesla dashboard to ensure that nobody else has access to access your private information.
If you would like to use your vehicle for valet parking or service purposes, just select the 'Valet/Service' feature on your dashboard application and then enter the 4-digit valet pin you have on the touchscreen. The alarm won't work, but the car will not start unless you enter a valid pin. This is ideal for those who need to hand their vehicle to other people like garage mechanics and taxi drivers.
The world's first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser
The Autowatch Ghost is the world's first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser and offers security that is unparalleled by any other product available today. It protects you from key hacking or cloning, and even theft of keys. This is achieved through a partnership with your vehicle's current interface. It doesn't require additional fobs or remotes, but instead integrates with the vehicle's data network, CAN. This makes it a'silent' gadget.
The device is an in-built circuit board that connects to the engine management system of your car (ECU) and functions in a non-silent manner. When activated, it will stop the car from starting unless the PIN is entered. This is a unique number that you will receive when you make an appointment for installation. This number is required to enable valet mode, disable the alarm or permit you to leave in your friends car (if they have a Ghost installed too).
It is designed to be invisble from the interior of your car. It does not emit radio signals, and only produces sounds when it is activated. It can be installed in a variety of locations and is nearly impossible to spot.
