Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me
Modern day thieves can rob vehicles in just a minute. They make use of the OBD port of the car to hack into the ECU and then duplicate the key and all with a laptop that is hidden inside the vehicle.
An Autowatch Ghost immobiliser blocks this by sending a sequence of pin codes through buttons on your vehicle (steering wheel and central console). It is completely unnoticeable to anyone else in your car.
No key fobs or LED indicators or other ways to locate the vehicle are available.
If you're looking for a solution to stop keyless entry theft or key cloning, then look at the ghost immobiliser. This device is designed to protect your vehicle from these kinds of attacks by blocking the engine once a correct pin code is entered. This is an effective method to safeguard your vehicle. Even car insurance companies consider it a security feature that can lower the cost of a policy.
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 begin when you press the exact sequence of buttons using your unique override code. This means that any attempt to start the vehicle without entering this code will be met by a loud siren and the engine will not start. The thief will then realise that they've been caught and is likely to get out of the vehicle and flee.
One of the big advantages of this system is that it does not transmit any signals like the tracker, which means that thieves are unable to utilize RF signal receivers in order to pinpoint the location of your Ghost unit. It also does not transmit any IR (infrared) signals, like the standard remote key fobs to control the device or tracker do, which makes it difficult to deceive or hack.
Another benefit of the ghost is that it has the valet mode which can be activated when you hand your vehicle over to a valet service or parking. This will turn off the immobiliser can for 30mph and permit you to drive just as normal by with your key fob. When the vehicle is set up, the Ghost will be restored to full functioning.

This is because unlike other immobilisers that only stop your vehicle from starting if don't have a fob, the clever system actually disconnects the engine control unit to stop the vehicle from starting. The system communicates a message through buttons on the steering wheel, door panel or centre console. It can only be removed with the correct pin code configuration.
Its sleek and discreet design allows it to fit into your vehicle seamlessly without additional keys or LED indicators - it runs independently from your original alarm or tracker. It's a CAN-bus immobiliser, meaning that it sits in your vehicle's control network and does no interfere with other devices such as your car's key fob or alarm.
Contrary to other systems that depend on codes grabbing or RF scanning the Ghost's unique technology is completely undetectable by thieves since it sends an inaudible sequence of pin codes via existing buttons on your vehicles steering wheel and door panels as well as the central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary device that defends your vehicle from keyless entry and smart key theft. It does this by creating an individual, personalized pin code that must be entered in order to disable it.
With the growing number of keyless entry cars that are on the road The thieves are becoming sophisticated and using cloning equipment that can be bought via classifieds or online for less than PS15. The key fob that is cloned can be used to gain access to the vehicle. The standard immobiliser can only stop the vehicle from starting if the criminal has your original key fob. This isn't enough security, and it's easy to get criminals to jam or spoof signals to unlock your vehicle.
Valet mode
Standard immobilisers fitted to your vehicle employ an electronic chip to send signals. The system will look for the code that was sent by the key to begin the vehicle. If the correct signal cannot be received the system will cut off the power and prevent the vehicle from beginning. This is the fundamental principle behind all immobilisers that are sold on the market and is a vital security measure to ensure that your vehicle isn't stolen even if a burglar has your keys or a device that can enhance the signal of your key fob.
However, a ghost immobiliser doesn't only stop that however, it goes far beyond that. The system, which is located on the CAN Bus of your Mercedes has been programmed with a unique pin code that has to be entered in order to start the car. It is then secured on your application and nobody can ever access it unless they have the exact pin that you have.
The system will also prevent hacking, cloning, and signal jamming (which can be used by thieves to bypass the immobiliser in your vehicle). If a criminal is able to get their hands on the keys to your car or fob, they won't be able start your vehicle even if it's parked nearby. They might only steal your car on flatbed trucks, which is highly unlikely.
Valet mode comes as a standard feature with your ghost immobiliser. When activated the glove box and trunk of your car will be locked. This means that anyone trying to take your car away will not have anything valuable to take. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla so that it cannot be driven at speeds of more than 70mph. It also will disable absurd modes. It will also hide your home and work addresses, restrict your driver profiles and secure your Tesla dashboard to ensure that no one else can access your private information.
If you want to make use of your car for valet parking or service purposes, simply select the 'Valet/Service' mode on your dashboard application and enter your 4-digit valet pin on the touchscreen. After you've done this, the alarm functions will be bypassed however it will hinder the ability to start your car unless a valid pin is entered. This is a great option for those who need to give their vehicle to other people such as taxi drivers and garage mechanics.
The first aftermarket CAN-bus immobiliser in the world
The Autowatch Ghost is the world's first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser and offers security that is unparalleled by anything on the market today. It shields your car from key cloning, hacking, and even key theft. This is achieved by integrating into your vehicle's current interface. It doesn't require any additional fobs or remotes, but instead integrates with the vehicle's data network, CAN. This makes it a "stealth device.
The device is an invisible circuit board that connects to the engine management system in your car (ECU) and functions in a non-silent manner. When activated, it will prevent the car from starting unless you enter a PIN. This is the code you will receive when you request an installation. This number is required to enable valet, deactivate the alarm, or allow you to leave in a vehicle belonging to a family member (if they also have Ghost installed).
It is designed in a way that it cannot be detected by anyone who is looking into your cars interior, does not send any radio signals and is only heard when it's being activated. It can be fitted in a variety places, making it nearly impossible to spot. ghost immobiliser fitting is also a low-maintenance gadget and can be used with other systems such as a tracker (Brand dependent) to offer an all-inclusive anti-theft solution.
Many people opt to put in an immobiliser ghost due to the fact that they feel standard security is not enough to stop their pride and joy from being taken. Physical deterrents, such as wheel clamps and steering wheel locks are great alternatives, but they're not considered "theft-proof" by thieves because they can be easily defeated with the proper tools. A ghost immobiliser is not accessible to thieves since it is built into the vehicle and, if activated would disable the starter motor as well as the fuel system.
The most appealing aspect is that a ghost immobiliser can be installed for as low as PS450, which is a fraction of the price of other options out there - and it actually does stop your car from being taken away!
