Get a Ghost Immobiliser Fitted to Protect Your Vehicle
The Autowatch Ghost is a next-generation car immobiliser that safeguards your vehicle from key (and keyless) theft, cloning and hacking of relays. It is a subtle device that is connected to the vehicles CAN data network and operates quietly.
It requires a PIN code made up of buttons located on the steering column or centre console. It can be activated in service mode, allowing the vehicle to start briefly when needed.
No Radio Signals
Installing a ghost immobiliser is an excellent method of protecting your car from key cloning or hacking. It is silent and is hidden within the vehicle and doesn't make use of radio signals to communicate. This makes it extremely difficult to detect by thieves using radar scanners as they can't see it or hear it.
It also stops cloning your vehicle's keyfob, by preventing the communication between the vehicle's CAN data network and the keyfob. Organised car thieves will often use sophisticated code-grabbing and RF scanning technologies to detect and deactivate the security systems that are in cars. Ghost immobilisers are not visible to thieves because they don't emit any radio signals and are incorporated into the vehicle's CAN data network, which means there are no circuit breaks during installation and fitting, making them completely inaccessible.
The ghost immobiliser blocks your car from being moved and also stops it from beginning. This is ideal if you will park your vehicle in a public area, like supermarkets or garages or when a valet will be parking it for you. This feature can be activated by an easy app for iOS or Android phones.
Your vehicle can be tracked through GPS trackers. This can help you locate your vehicle in the event that it is stolen. In recent times thieves have been capable of evading security systems through the OBD port. This can be avoided by using a ghost-immobiliser that communicates directly with the ECU of the vehicle through the data loop in the CAN. It is inaccessible to high-tech diagnostic tools and completely silent, meaning that thieves are unable to insert the car's key to a new one or change the ECU to start the vehicle.
The device is fully reversible, and it won't affect the warranty of your vehicle. If you're considering a ghost immobiliser, make sure you find a TASSA approved installer. This will ensure the installer has passed a series of tests, including the identification of the installer and a CRB.

If you want to protect your vehicle against contactless theft, an immobiliser ghost is the ideal solution. The device is hidden in a concealed location inside your car, and works by preventing your engine from starting unless certain buttons within your vehicle are pressed in a specific sequence (similar to a PIN number on your smartphone).
Since it doesn't utilize radio frequencies or key fobs to communicate, there aren't lights or sounds to indicate its presence. Instead, it connects to your vehicle through the CAN data network and works in a quiet manner, ensuring your vehicle is safe from thieves who do not want to be caught.

Diagnostic tools or keys stolen from your car cannot detect it.
Even if thieves have the original key fob they will still need to know your pin code to be able to start your vehicle. The system also prevents key duplicates, signal jamming, and device spoofing - all methods employed by thieves to unlock cars fitted with a factory-fitted immobiliser.
A ghost immobiliser is an excellent way to safeguard your vehicle from theft especially if you've spent an enormous amount of money and effort customising it or have an expensive, rare or valuable vehicle.

They record the frequency of the keyfob, and transmit it to a coconspirator, who then can use the remote starter to start the car. The system will prevent this from happening by disconnecting the battery from your key fob after a few minutes of inactivity.
The Autowatch Ghost system has numerous other features that can help make your vehicle more secure. These include preventing ECU swapping, key cloning and more. The CAN data network communicates with the ECU, making it impossible for thieves to swap the ECU or even add keys to circumvent the system.
