Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter

The technology has evolved to keep up with the growing sophistication of car thieves. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser uses your car's buttons that are located on the steering wheel and on the centre console to generate an individual pincode sequence that must be entered prior to driving your car.

The device is unnoticeable to thieves, as it operates on CAN data and has no circuit breaks, making it a very safe, simple to install device. RCA Cheadle is an approved Ghost immobiliser installer and member of TASSA.

No Key Fobs or LED Indicators

The Autowatch Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN immobiliser that can protect your vehicle against key-cloning or hacking, as well as key theft. It operates in a quiet manner and is integrated into the CAN network of your car.

The buttons on the steering wheel and the door panels of your car create a unique, re-usable PIN code (up to 20 presses) which must be entered prior to driving. This is the same system that you use to access your credit card or mobile banking and can be altered at any time. This can be done in just seconds on your smartphone, with the app downloaded or, if you prefer, you can use your key fob.

This is a key aspect of the system that thieves will struggle to break or get rid of since it doesn't require any additional electronics, like the key fob. The thief is unable to decipher the code and will have a difficult finding a way get around it. It is also unrecognizable by diagnostics, since there are no radio signals being sent and it cannot be detected by RF scanner technology that was used to fool security systems in the past.

It is also completely weatherproof and fits into the form of a small, waterproof device that can be plugged into the vehicle's wiring harness at any point within your vehicle. This means it does not leave any marks or damage to your vehicle - making it an attractive option for people who care about their automobiles and want to improve their security.

This is the greatest benefit of all. Because there are no signals being sent, there is no way for thieves to know that they have hacked your security device and to attempt to find ways to get around it. It is an excellent option to protect any car owner, especially because criminals are increasingly targeting the latest vehicles that have sophisticated technology.

No Radio Signals

As we've mentioned earlier, unlike other vehicle safety devices that require a key fob or pin code to turn them off, the ghost immobiliser operates in a silent manner and doesn't emit radio signals. It is connected directly to the CAN bus, so a thief will have a hard time finding its presence. The immobiliser will not start your vehicle until you enter the correct PIN sequence which is only possible through a number of buttons that are pressed in a particular sequence - and it is easily controlled via the app.

This makes it a lot more secure than other immobilisers that use a passive system, where the immobiliser is only able to disconnect the ECU from power if a key is present and has an active signal on the board. These systems can be disabled using a tag or keypad or keypad, by entering a pin number into the keypad or by pressing a particular sequence of buttons. However, the ghost immobiliser cannot be disabled this way and, therefore, if you've had your car towed or stolen, you'll not be able to drive it back until you enter the correct pin code.

The ghost immobiliser has been designed to be resistant to the most sophisticated theft methods, like cloning. This is because thieves could try to duplicate your key fob or even hack your vehicle's ECU in order to override the security. However the CAN immobiliser was designed to prevent this by creating a unique pin number every time you want to start your car. This means that it won't be possible to start your car with any cloned key or overriding system.

Furthermore, the CAN immobiliser offers excellent protection against signal boosting that is utilized by thieves to overcome standard factory-fitted immobilisers. This makes it one of the most efficient and reliable immobilisers that we install at Progressive Parts. It is endorsed by insurance companies and is popular with customers who want to surrender their vehicle to valet parking. It has an "Service Mode" that allows you to drive your vehicle for a period of time without requiring PIN codes. This is useful if your valet drivers or guests are able to drive your vehicle.

No Circuit Cuts

Car theft in recent years has become more and more common with organised thieves using sophisticated diagnostic devices to identify fitted security systems. The Ghost is designed for this purpose. It isn't detected by any diagnostic tools and works in a silent manner with the CAN data circuit in the vehicle. It connects with the vehicle's ECU and an individual pin code is entered. This is required to start the engine. The criminal won't be able to steal your car by simply replacing the ECU or putting in a new key. They must first enter the correct PIN code.

The system also has the option of a service valet mode which will allow your vehicle to start and drive without the need for your personal PIN. This is great for the time that your vehicle needs its maintenance, or if you need to leave it with a valet service or mechanic. You can also turn the switch on and off at any time, so that no one else will be in a position to start your vehicle even if you're there.

No RF Scanning

Standard immobilisers are made to stop your vehicle from starting in the event that you don't have the proper key fob or code. It does this by sending an alarm to the ECU which is acknowledged by the engine control unit and closes down any component in the system that may be compromised.

Modern thieves however are always looking to stay one step ahead of automakers and have become more adept at using techniques like key cloning hacking (relay attacks) and even key theft itself. The thieves often resort to breaking and entering your home, and then scouring your letterbox, stealing the car keys from your handbag or even from your ignition.
