Three Greatest Moments In Ghost 2 Immobiliser Installation History
Autowatch Ghost II Immobiliser Installation
Ghost immobilisers are the newest technological advancement in security for vehicles. They are revolutionary because they shield your vehicle from key cloning and hacking.
The system has an exclusive disarm sequence requiring the correct PIN code to start your vehicle. This is done via the buttons on your dashboard or steering wheel.
TASSA Approved
The brand new TASSA verified Ghost-II CAN immobiliser from Autowatch is a groundbreaking device created to fight recent criminality trends, such as key cloning and hacking. This innovative system connects directly to your vehicle's onboard CAN data network, which prevents your vehicle from being started or driven without the correct code. The system is completely undetectable, and doesn't make use of radio frequencies or an electronic key fob, rather it lets you create an individual PIN sequence using existing buttons in your vehicle, like the ones on your dashboard or steering wheel and can be changed at any time. The PIN can be as long as up to 20 times long for maximum security. A secure emergency code is also included.
The system communicates with the vehicle's CAN data network in order to determine when the PIN has been entered. This is then sent to the vehicle that disables the ignition, engine and shuts off crucial components such as the starter motor and the fuel pump. The system also has valet mode, allowing you to deactivate the system and prevent your vehicle from being driven by valets or service center personnel who do not have the correct key.
Contrary to conventional immobiliser relays which can be disabled with readily available diagnostic tools for professionals, the Ghost device uses the onboard data network to communicate with the ECU and cannot be tampered with. It's a sealed unit which means that it is not able to listen in to the circuits. This makes it impossible for thieves to hear the distinctive clicking sound that traditional immobiliser relays emit.
This technology is not vulnerable to jamming tools used by high-tech thefts and is unrecognizable by other diagnostic tools because it utilizes CAN data networks. This makes it the ideal anti-theft option for any modern vehicle.
We'll visit your office or home to install the system once you've booked the installation. We'll run through a full demonstration with you and then supply you with an owner's manual as well as an emergency card and two Autowatch window stickers as well as an installation certificate.
Insurance Approved
The Ghost is a security tool installed aftermarket to protect against the kinds of thieves interested in stealing vehicles. It prevents your engine from starting until certain buttons is pressed. This sequence is only known by you, and in the event that your vehicle is broken into thieves, they will not be able to start it and will likely leave your vehicle for fear of being caught. Ghost also has a 'silent mode', which disables the vehicle if it is not being used and can be turned off with the press of a button.
The system is fully TASSA-approved, meaning that some insurers will recognize it as an extra security measure for your vehicle. It can be used together with other approved by Thatcham security measures, such as trackers, to prevent your vehicle from being taken. This will give you extra security.
The system also communicates with the ECU of your vehicle through the CAN data loop which is completely inaudible to diagnostic tools. This means that a burglar cannot simply change a key or swap the ECU to get around the Ghost. The system will only allow your vehicle to start if the correct pin code is entered. This unique PIN code is only known by you & can be changed at any time.
The Ghost is an immobiliser that can be added to any vehicle without the requirement for additional key fobs or wiring. It is linked directly to the vehicle's CAN data network, and a personalised PIN code of your preference is programmed into it using existing buttons on the dashboard and steering wheel. This code will then prevent the vehicle from starting until the correct sequence is selected first. In the event that the code is guessed, there are secure emergency codes which can be reset with your mobile phone. In addition to this it is possible to use an easy-to-use application available for iOS and Android that minimises the need to enter your pin every occasion, ensuring more secure and hassle-free security.
Distinction
In contrast to an GPS tracker, which aids in finding your vehicle after it's stolen, an immobiliser system prevents the vehicle from being stolen in the first place. It does this by preventing the engine from running until it is given the correct code through the key fob or smartphone app that is downloaded to it. This is a great way to prevent wheel-jacking and other types of theft since the criminal is forced to leave the vehicle alone or risk being caught.
The ghost immobiliser, a tiny weatherproof device, fits into the wiring harness of your car. It is hidden and has a connection with the CAN data network. This means that thieves are unable to detect it or disarm by cutting wires. The system is equipped with a service-mode that can be set to let your garage work on your vehicle without needing to know the passcode.
Once the device is installed in your vehicle, it can be de-armed and armed with an app on your smartphone. You can even change the PIN at any time to ensure that only you have access to your vehicle. This is useful in case you plan to sell your vehicle in the future since it can increase its resale value.
Another benefit of the Ghost immobiliser is that it's discrete and leaves no marks on the body of your vehicle making it a perfect accessory to any vehicle. It's easy to fit and operates quietly, and will not disrupt any other systems within your vehicle.
An immobiliser that is discreet will improve the look and feel your vehicle. This can be especially appealing to those who use their cars to transport expensive goods as it will help to deter any potential thieves from targeting them. Ghost immobilisers work together with other anti-theft systems like trackers to provide unparalleled protection for your vehicle.
The Keylab work by connecting directly to the CAN data network. They are almost unnoticeable, since they do not use LED indicators or additional key fobs. It does not emit radio signals, and it's also silent so thieves can't hear it. The device can be put in a variety of locations (even under the floor mats), and is an excellent option for those looking to protect their vehicle without compromising on its aesthetics.
This device stops your car from starting unless you enter a password that is unique to you. This is accomplished through a combination of buttons on your dashboard and steering wheel in a particular sequence. This will stop thieves from hacking into your system, and prevent them from starting your vehicle.
The Ghost will detect this attempt to increase your signal and prevent your car from starting until the proper disarming code is entered. Contrary to other security systems that can be activated by entering the wrong code, the Ghost will continue to block your vehicle from starting until you put in the correct passcode.
The Ghost will remain in service mode until you switch it back into "service" which is activated by pressing the same button combination that you did to arm it, (this is possible at the time you visit your dealer for maintenance or warranty work). This is a security measure to ensure that it is not removed by unauthorised people and then rearmed and returned to service mode when it is needed.
It is also possible to transfer your Ghost to a new vehicle if you switch vehicles throughout the time of ownership, if the new vehicle is compatible. The latest version of Ghost includes QR finger prints that are linked to the International Security Register. This means that should you find your Ghost stolen for parts, it can be traced to you and your car. This could deter criminals from stealing vehicles fitted with Ghost, as they know that they are safe and are less likely to be caught and convicted.
