Ghost 2 Immobiliser Installation

A Ghost immobiliser guards your vehicle against key cloning and hacking. It also helps prevent door lock picking. It uses the vehicle's buttons that are factory-installed (such as steering wheel control, door panel and centre console) to create an individual pin code sequence that you can change every time you use it.

This makes it almost impossible to figure out the sequence so that the vehicle can't be driven away or even started. It also stops the device from spoofing signals and jamming.

No Key Fobs or LED Indications

Car theft is a massive problem with many thieves targeting keyless vehicles. If they can get your vehicle's key signal, or copy your key fob they could use it to allow your vehicle to start and drive away. Installing an immobiliser into your van or car is a smart idea. It's a simple device that prevents the engine from starting if you do not have a key or immobiliser code. There are many different kinds of immobilisers available. Some are designed to be hidden inside your vehicle, while others are weatherproof and are able to be installed in a place which is more visible.

Ghost Immobilisers are among the most well-known and popular types. It is weatherproof and connects to your vehicle's CAN network. It functions in the same manner as your key fob, but doesn't have any LED indications or even a button on your steering wheel to signal its presence. It is installed in your van or car and connects to the ECU directly.

The system is also tamper-proof meaning it is not possible for a criminal to take out or alter the ghost unit. The system is also tamperproof, meaning that a thief cannot take away or alter the Ghost Unit.

The Ghost Immobiliser is a great solution because it shields your vehicle or van from hacking, key cloning and key theft. It does this by using an unique PIN code only you know. You can select your own disarm sequence, which can be as short or as long as you want. Then, you type it into the Ghost application on your phone to start driving. The system can be transferred to a different vehicle if you move during the lifetime of ownership.

Often these systems are linked to the OBD port to allow it to recognize your fob or key. Hi-tech thieves, however, have discovered ways to hack these systems and then start the vehicle, even if the key is not present. This is why it's recommended to install an immobiliser with ghosts installed. The device will stop your Mercedes from being started unless the correct PIN code is entered. This can be set by you & is only available to you and your installer.

No OBD Port Hacking

The ghost immobiliser stops your car from being started without the proper pin code. It's designed to guard your vehicle from key cloning and other common kinds of theft.

Ghost immobilisers operate silently and stealthily over the CAN data network, in contrast to other security systems that use LED indicators or key fobs. This means that thieves can't detect the presence of a ghost immobiliser even if they're using advanced scans using RF and code-grabbing technology.

The device is in the engine bay and is connected to the ECU (Engine Control Unit). It is connected to the factory buttons on your vehicle which allows you to design an individual button sequence that is used to authorize the start-up of your vehicle. It is entered through the steering wheel or door ghost immobiliser, tracker panels, or even the centre console. It can be changed at any time and can include up to 20 numbers in the PIN.

Modern vehicles are flooded with CAN bus information, which means that thieves can employ various methods to break into your car and disable security systems. One of them is the OBD port (On Board Diagnostics). With the right tools thieves are able to access the OBD port on your vehicle and then utilize a laptop to deactivate your car's alarm and code a new key then drive away. This hack is very efficient and can be done within a matter of minutes.

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser prevents this from happening by communicating with the ECU via the CAN data network. It is not detected by vehicle diagnostics and there are no radio signals, which makes it almost impossible for thieves to locate and tamper with the system. Additionally the ghost is invincible to jamming devices which can be used to disable other security systems inside your vehicle.

You can also switch the ghost into Service mode. This lets you offer your car for valet parking or service, without giving anyone your keys or button fobs. The ghost will then exit Service mode according to speed and time, or by entering the pin code that you have set up. This is a great way to protect your vehicle from thieves who use high-tech technology when you are working or on vacation.

No Key Theft

The ghost 2 immobiliser uses the CAN bus system which means that it is embedded within the vehicle's CAN data network. This means it is not detectable by any diagnostic tools employed by thieves to hack and scan modern vehicles. It does not transmit any radio signals, similar to a tracker, so it cannot be detected by anyone except you or your trained installer.

Contrary to other car security systems that rely on LED indicators or key fobs the Ghost immobiliser makes use of the buttons in your vehicle (either the steering wheel or the door lock, or dashboard) to create a unique disarm sequence that you can select. This sequence can be set to any length you like and must be entered before the J can be driven.

You can change your PIN at any time, ensuring that even if another person your keys or forget your own PIN for a few hours or so, your vehicle is safe. This is particularly useful when you drop your car off for cleaning or service or to take it to an auto repair shop in the area to make repairs. You are able to drive your vehicle without worrying about a burglar taking it.

The smart thief proof technology of the Ghost device is a true game changer and is a great alternative to traditional physical deterrents such as a steering wheel lock or wheel clamp. The fact that it doesn't depend on any external components or emit any signals makes it more difficult to bypass than any other immobiliser currently available.

We do not recommend altering your wiring for CAN data in any way. It is imperative that you choose a TASSA registered Ghost Installations team to perform your installation. Our team how much is a Ghost immobiliser certified and insured. This provides you with peace of mind knowing that your Ghost Car Security system will be a genuine Tassa-approved item.

No Key Cloning

The Ghost 2 is the latest immobiliser to protect your Lexus. It safeguards your vehicle from hacking, key-cloning, and key theft. It creates a distinct pin code push sequence that uses the original buttons of your car. Only you are able to start your vehicle. The system is completely concealed, sealed and tucked into the harness of your vehicle, making it untraceable to thieves. If a thief did manage to gain access they would be unable to driving away by speed or entering the PIN code. It is also possible to put it into service mode, which allows you to temporarily start & drive your vehicle. This can be done through the app or using a Bluetooth tag (sold separately) and can be removed at any time.

Online key cloning is very widespread and allows criminals to steal vehicles without having the original keys. Installing an immobiliser is essential especially if your car is costly.

Ghost immobilisers are different to the factory immobiliser that comes with your car. Standard factory fitted immobilisers rely on a chip in the ECU (Electronic Control Unit) to communicate with the fob or key and then start the engine. Ghost immobilisers prevent this by adding an additional layer of security to your vehicle, making it impossible to start the engine without having a unique pin number or code sequence being entered. This also prevents hacking devices, device spoofing, and signal jamming, which are all methods that can be employed to unlock a standard factory fitted immobiliser.

The best thing about ghost immobilisers is that it is nearly impossible to bypass or hack. This is because the ghost immobiliser is connected to CAN bus, and it is operated in a way that is invisible to thieves. This is a great benefit, since it stops the vehicle that was stolen from being driven again because it won't start.

This will also prevent a car from being towd because the Ghost will automatically lock once it detects a trigger speed of zero mph. This is a great benefit as it will stop the thief from being able remove the ghost, and then take your car away.
