14 Smart Ways To Spend Your Leftover Ghost 2 Immobiliser Installation Budget
Autowatch Ghost II Immobiliser Installation
Ghost immobilisers represent the latest in vehicle security. They are revolutionary because they shield your vehicle from key-cloning as well as hacking.
The system requires the correct PIN code in order to start your vehicle. This is done by pressing the buttons on your steering wheel or dashboard.
TASSA Approved
The new TASSA verified Ghost-II CAN immobiliser from Autowatch is a revolutionary device that was designed to fight recent criminality trends, such as key hacking and cloning. This smart system connects directly to the CAN network of your vehicle, stopping it from being turned on or driven if you don't have the right code. The system is completely undetectable and does not utilize radio frequencies or a key fob, instead it lets you create an individual PIN sequence using the buttons on your vehicle such as the ones on your dashboard or steering wheel that you can alter at any time. You can design the PIN up to 20 presses long to ensure maximum security and a secure emergency code is included too.
The system communicates with the vehicle's CAN data network in order to determine when the PIN is entered. The system is then sent to the vehicle which disables the ignition and engine, and shuts down vital components like the starter motor as well as the fuel pump. The system also has valet mode, which allows you to disable the system and block your vehicle from being driven by valets or service centre personnel who do not have the correct key.
In contrast to traditional immobiliser relays which can be disarmed with easily accessible diagnostic tools for professionals and tools, the Ghost device makes use of the onboard data network to communicate with the ECU and cannot be tampered with. It's a sealed device and therefore, it is impossible to monitor the circuits. This makes it nearly impossible for thieves to hear the distinctive click sound that traditional immobiliser relays produce.
This technology is not vulnerable to jamming devices used by high-tech thieves, and because it is based on the CAN data network, it's not detectable by other diagnostic tools. This makes it the ideal anti-theft solution to fit any modern vehicle.

Insurance Approved
The Ghost is an aftermarket security device that shields your vehicle from the kinds of thieves who would be interested in stealing your vehicle. It prevents the engine from starting unless a certain sequence of buttons are pressed. The sequence is only understood by you, therefore when your car is stolen thieves, they will not be in a position to start it, and are likely to leave the vehicle in peace to avoid being caught. The ghost also features a 'silent mode', that will shut down the vehicle if not in use. It can be turned off by the press of a button.
The system is fully TASSA (Tracker and Aftermarket security systems association) insurance-approved, meaning it will be recognized by some insurance companies as an additional security measure on your vehicle. It can be added alongside other Thatcham approved security measures like trackers to protect your vehicle from being taken and gives you peace of mind.
Additionally it communicates with your vehicles ECU on the CAN data circuit. This makes it inaccessible to diagnostic tools and completely silent. This means that a burglar cannot simply add a new key or replace the ECU to disable the Ghost. The system will only start your vehicle if you enter the correct pin code. This unique PIN code is only known by you & can be changed at any time.
The Ghost is an immobiliser that is able to be fitted to any vehicle without the need for additional key fobs or wiring. It is directly connected to the vehicle's CAN data network, and the personal PIN code you choose is programmed into it by using buttons already present on the dashboard and steering wheel. The code then stops the vehicle from starting until the correct sequence is chosen first. In the event that the code is misinterpreted, there are secure emergency codes that can be reset using your mobile phone. In addition to this there is a simple app for iOS & Android that eliminates the need to enter your pin on every occasion, offering more hassle free security.
Distinction
In contrast to the GPS tracker which only assists with finding your vehicle after it's taken away, an immobiliser system stops the vehicle from being stolen in the first place. This is accomplished by preventing the engine from starting unless it is able to receive the correct code through the key fob or smartphone app that is downloaded to it. This is the most effective way to avoid wheel jacking and other kinds of theft since the thief will be forced to leave your car in peace or risk getting caught.
The ghost immobiliser, a small weatherproof device, is tucked away into the wiring harness of your car. It is connected to the CAN data network and is hidden away so that thieves cannot find it or disable it with simple wire cutting. The system also comes with a service mode which can be turned on to allow your garage to work on your vehicle, without needing to know the passcode for it to begin.
Once you've got the device attached to your vehicle it will be able to arm and disarm it using your smartphone via its dedicated application. You can alter the PIN number whenever you'd like to ensure you're the only one who has access to your vehicle. This is helpful if you intend to sell your vehicle in the future since it will increase its resale value.
Another advantage of the Ghost immobiliser is that it's discrete and won't leave any marks on your internal body of your car, making it an ideal accessory to any vehicle. It's simple to install, it's quiet and won't interfere with any other systems in your vehicle.
Many people are placing more emphasis on the appearance of their vehicles and a subtle immobiliser can add to the look and feel of your car. This can be especially attractive for those who frequently use their cars to transport expensive goods since it can keep thieves from pursuing them. The Key Lab works together with other anti-theft technology like trackers to provide unparalleled protection for your car.
Low Maintenance
A Ghost immobiliser connects directly to your CAN data network and is almost undetectable because it doesn't have any LED indicators or additional key fobs. It also does not emit radio signals, and is quiet so thieves cannot detect it working. It can be hidden in a variety of places (even underneath the floor mats) and is a great option for those looking to protect their car without compromising on aesthetics.
This device blocks your car from starting until you enter a password that is unique to you. This is done using the combination of buttons on your dashboard and steering wheel in a particular sequence. This will stop thieves from hacking into your system and stop them from starting the vehicle.
Thieves could also try to increase your signal to gain access to your vehicle, but the Ghost will be able to detect this and stop your car from starting until you enter the correct sequence of disarming. Contrary to other security systems that can be activated by entering a incorrect code or entering the wrong code, the Ghost will keep preventing your vehicle from starting until you input the correct passcode.
The Ghost will remain in'service mode' until you activate it by pressing the same set of buttons that you used to arm it (this can be accomplished by visiting your dealer to perform maintenance or warranty work). This is to protect it from being removed by unauthorised persons and to ensure that it is fully armed whenever it is required.
It is also possible to transfer your Ghost to a different vehicle if you switch vehicles throughout the time of ownership, if the new vehicle is compatible with. The most recent version of Ghost also comes with QR finger print stickers that are connected to the International Security Register, meaning that should your Ghost is ever stolen for parts, it will be traced back to you and your vehicle. This could stop thieves from stealing cars with Ghost because they know that the vehicle is secure and they would be risking getting caught and arrested.
