11 Strategies To Refresh Your Immobiliser Ghost
Ghost Immobiliser Tracker
The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser system is a subtle device that stops your car from starting without you entering a pin code. It guards against cloning and relay theft.
This is accomplished by stopping your vehicle from starting until you enter a PIN (up to 20-digits) code by pressing the buttons on your vehicle.
ghost immobiliser 2 will make it more difficult for thieves to take your vehicle. The device is connected to the CAN data network in your car and a personalised PIN code is encoded into it. This code can only be entered by you using the buttons on your dashboard or the steering wheel. If someone tries to start your engine, they are unable to do since only you know the PIN. The system is discreet and unnoticeable, allowing it work in the background of your vehicle without affecting your driving experience.
The device is also resistant to the most popular method of theft that is used in the UK known as relay attacks. This is when thieves work in groups of two or more. One will be near your vehicle, while another typically in a nearby house or parked on the roadside is using an electronic device to detect the key fob signal and transmit it to their relay device. The Ghost II immobiliser prevents the thieves from starting your vehicle by blocking the signal from your fob.
It also stops the thief from stealing a new key or replacing an ECU to bypass the system and start your vehicle. This is because it works silently and does not give off the distinct click that traditional immobiliser relays do. The device also avoids circuit cuts, which are commonly used by professional thieves to tamper with your car and make it easier to steal it.
If a thief does successfully tamper with your vehicle, the GPS tracking will notify you of their location and send you an SMS notification of their movement. This will give you to report them to the police, and perhaps get your car back.
An immobiliser from Ghost will safeguard your pride from theft. It must be installed by a properly trained and qualified installer to ensure that the system is correctly installed and functioning correctly. That is why we recommend that you work with a TASSA approved technician like MotorGuard who can offer a bespoke fitting service for the Autowatch Ghost and other modern car security devices.
Remote Control
Utilizing a small device that sits on the key ring and connects to the car's on-board CAN network it can be activated with an easy mobile application. Once activated, it creates a unique PIN code (similar to the ones used by debit or credit cards) which must be entered before the vehicle can be driven away. This will shut off the engine preventing thieves from starting your car regardless of what they do with the original key fobs or using methods of theft relays.
Ghost immobiliser trackers also include devices to guard against signal jamming, device spoofing and cloning - all methods which normal immobilisers are vulnerable to. These next-generation devices can be connected to other alarm systems for cars or Trackers (Brand dependent) to enable priority disarming.
This technology is available to any of our Ghost Tracker Products, giving you peace of mind wherever you travel in your vehicle. It can be integrated with your existing tracking system.

Another benefit is that it will still be in place if your car is being tracked by one of our trackers, or stolen and can be reactivated via the app. It can be activated by your TASSA approved installer (We are an TASSA approved installer) and this will reactivate the original car alarm and trigger any additional security features, such as a car tethering alarm or warnings about the location of your vehicle to the driver.

Tracking
As more people think about protecting their vehicle against contactless theft a Ghost immobiliser is a fantastic option for any vehicle.

Our Ghost immobiliser is completely silent, unlike many other immobilisers that utilize radio frequencies. It works with the CAN data network in your vehicle. This means that it's undetectable to any potential thief, who can't use simple RF scanning tools to locate the system. Furthermore, because it doesn't require additional cuts in the circuit to be installed, the Ghost is extremely difficult to dearm.
Once installed after installation, a Ghost immobiliser will stop your engine from starting unless you have a unique PIN or app authorisation. You can enter 20 digits of your PIN by using the buttons on the steering wheel or dashboard. This will ensure that only you are able to start the car, as well as anyone you authorize. There is a reset code that allows you to start your vehicle if you forget your PIN. Other helpful features include Service mode, which permits your vehicle to start and drive without a PIN, which is great to use for valeting or transporting it to the garage for work.
We recommend pairing a ghost with an GPS tracking device to make the most of your security system. Not only will a GPS tracker let you see where your car is, it will also notify you an alert if it is moving outside of the area that you've set. This will allow you to swiftly take action in the event that your vehicle is being moved.
