What Is Ghost Autowatch Immobiliser And Why Is Everyone Talking About It?
Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser
The renowned Ghost Immobiliser provides your vehicle with the most advanced security against key cloning hacking, theft and hacking. This TASSA-certified system is unnoticeable by thieves and blocks your vehicle from starting.
This device is silent and uses buttons on your vehicle's steering wheel, door panels and the centre console to allow you to create a unique and changeable PIN code sequence up to 20 characters. The code must be entered first before the car can begin.
Easy to install
It is more essential than ever that you protect your vehicle. With car crimes increasing and cloning devices readily available, it is essential to protect your vehicle. Our Autowatch Ghost immobiliser provides a discreet, effective and aftermarket solution for protecting against key-cloning and car theft. The device is almost indestructible to thieves, and operates by pressing buttons on the steering wheel or door panels. This lets customers create a unique disarming sequence like the credit card which must be entered before the vehicle can be started or driven away. This makes it almost impossible to detect and is not affected by jamming devices or spoofing devices, like other systems.
The installation of the Ghost unit is a highly-specialized procedure that should only be carried out by an approved installer. The unit is carefully integrated into your vehicle's CAN bus system and ensures that it is directly connected to the ECU. The Ghost can be installed without affecting the factory settings, and it is not possible for thieves to evade the system with signal boosters.
When the Ghost is installed the new and improved sequence to disarm must be entered to start your car. This can be done by pressing the service button in your vehicle 5 times in 2 seconds while making sure that it is not being held for a prolonged period of time. The system will then flash twice to indicate that Transport Mode has been activated. This feature is ideal for classic, sports and luxury vehicles that require their security system to be temporarily disabled while transport or servicing.
Once Transport Mode is activated, your immobiliser will be removed and you will not be able to reactivate it by entering the PIN code. This feature is perfect for those who want to store their car during the winter months, and avoid being stolen by thieves or having to deal with monthly insurance premium increases.
No key-fobs or LED indications to give away its location
The Ghost immobiliser protects your car from thieves by pressing buttons on the dashboard or on the steering wheel. You can enter a pin code without being noticed before you start the engine. It can be linked with an app on your phone to arm and disarm remotely. It prevents signal relay, ECU swapping, and key cloning. It's easy to install and can be fitted into a wide range of vehicles. It's also extremely discreet and can be hidden in a hard-to reach location such as behind the dashboard or inside the steering wheel trim.
This is a great choice for vehicles with high performance because it can disable your vehicle's ignition if the wrong pin code has been entered. This will stop thieves from stealing your pride and happiness. The device will even send an alert to your phone if you've left the car without a key in public areas, giving you peace of brain while you're away from your car.
The Ghost is unique to other immobilisers in that it does not require additional fobs or LED indicators. It can also be hidden in a difficult-to-reach area of your vehicle. It works by communicating directly with the vehicle's CAN data network, which makes it extremely resistant to detection. It does not emit radio signals, which means it is undetectable by RF scanners or signal jammers.
It's designed to be tamper proof and weatherproof, and is able to stand up to extreme temperatures. It is also impossible to be tampered with by cutting the wires or removing it. Additionally, it doesn't need any circuit cutting to function, which means it's inaccessible to organized gangs of thiefs who use diagnostics reading devices to detect the security systems fitted to. It is not affected by diagnostic equipment that examines CAN data for the presence or absence of a security system.
No circuit cuts
The ghost device doesn't have any indicators with LEDs or key fobs that would indicate its place of operation. It is hidden under the steering wheel or dashboard of your vehicle and uses buttons to create a unique PIN sequence that needs to be entered to turn on the engine. This means that even if a person who stole your keys does have them, they cannot drive the vehicle away because they wouldn't be aware of the correct PIN sequence. The device also does not transmit any radio signals, which means that organised criminal gangs that use diagnostics reading devices will not be able to detect the device.
This advanced immobiliser, that is also TASSA-approved, will help you reduce your insurance costs. This is especially applicable to modified vehicles that their owners have customized. It also wards off key cloning theft and ECU swapping meaning that the only way for a thief can steal your joy and pride is to take it away.
The system is completely quiet as it does not use the buttons that are found on the dashboard or in the factory keys. It communicates with the ECU by using the CAN data circuit, which is completely silent and does not provide any indication that it has been installed. This means that thieves can't replace the ECU or add new key fobs in order to get your car running.
If you have forgotten your PIN code Our engineers have provided you with a reset emergency for the device that allows you to enter "service mode". This allows dealers or technicians to temporarily drive and start your vehicle and perform MOTs, maintenance work, or valet parking. When the technician is finished their job or you've taken possession of your vehicle, just enter the PIN code and the device will go out of service mode dependent on speed and duration.
No radio signals
Contrary to many other car security systems, the Ghost immobiliser does not use an alarm system or key fobs to stop vehicles from getting started. It instead communicates with the vehicle's ECU, the CAN data circuit as well as other circuits to block the engine starting. It's a quiet solution, which is not affected by key-cloning techniques or radio frequency scanning techniques used by thieves to avoid security devices. It can also be paired with tracking systems to increase the overall safety of your vehicle. It can also warn you of any attempted tampering or theft.
The Autowatch Ghost, a TASSA certified device, is affixed to insurance, and offers the best security against key hacking and the cloning. It is controlled through an app for mobile devices and is encrypted to protect. It also has a safe emergency PIN override. It is a discreet effective and economical method to protect your vehicle from theft.
ghost immobiliser and tracker is not without problems. Many users have difficulty entering the correct sequence to disarm. This is because the device requires input from buttons that are already present in your vehicle, for example those on the steering wheel or on the centre console. Users might find this difficult to remember or make a mistake, especially when the device is being first used. It is recommended to read the manual that comes with the device to learn this, and to practice the disarming process before driving the vehicle.
Another problem is that certain cars have issues with CAN data connections, which can affect Ghost's capabilities. This could be caused by faulty sensors, or a damaged OBD connector. It is recommended to check the system before using it in the event that the CAN connection has any issues.
Easy to change PIN code
The ghost is a great device and has taken the market by storm however the pin code changing process is a bit hazy. The device is pre-programmed via the installer once it's fitted however, there are times when customers may want to change this for a variety of reasons like they'd like to use a different button to deactivate the device, they don't want their installer to know, or they don't want to use their current pin number. The good news is that the change over to a new pin number is very simple. Follow the steps below to find out how.
Please note that you must turn on the vehicles ignition but do not turn on the engine! The process takes only just a few seconds to be completed. The vehicle will then return to normal operation.
