Ghost Immobiliser Cars
Ghost immobilisers are an advanced security device that shields your vehicle from key cloning and hacking. It is completely undetectable, and does not leave any marks after installation. This makes it a popular option for owners of expensive vehicles or rare cars.
It makes use of buttons on your steering wheel, centre console, and door panels to create an unique pin code sequence (up to 20 characters) which must be entered before the engine can start.
There aren't any keyfobs, LEDs or other indicators that can help you locate it.
Ghost immobilisers protect your vehicle from key cloning and hacking. It is a discreet electronic device that is connected to your vehicle's data network and detects signals from the engine control unit (ECU). This system prevents your car's engine from starting until you enter a unique PIN code. It ensures that thieves aren't able to drive away with your joy and pride.
The device is connected to your vehicle's CAN Bus, allowing it to intercept data between the ECU of your vehicle and the other components connected. Installation is a highly complex procedure that requires skilled installation and should be completed by a certified installer. Once it is installed the device will be hidden inside your vehicle which makes it unnoticeable to thieves. It can detect vibrations, as well as the movement of car components and parts.
If a thief attempts to disable the device the engine management lights will flash quickly, and the horn will sound. This alerts the driver to the fact that there is a problem with the engine. They could be in be in a panic and leave their vehicle. This is a fantastic alternative to a standard immobiliser since the owner of the vehicle will be able to contact authorities immediately if the vehicle is in danger.
The device can be deactivated via an app that is accessible both by the owner and the installer (even since the majority of people will not forget their PIN). Some systems include a service/valet option which temporarily disables the immobiliser which allows an authorized driver to drive the vehicle without having to enter a PIN. The system will be activated once the vehicle has exceeded 31 mph and driven for a certain period of time.
No Bluetooth or wireless connectivity
This means it can't be detected by the modern thieves who use diagnostics to find an unconnected circuit or hidden immobiliser. It's inaccessible because it does not use any radio signals. This makes it a reliable deterrent to vehicle theft. We can also enable the GHOST's vehicle-specific features like anti-hijack and gearbox locks to prevent the engine from starting in a particular gear.
The GHOST is installed by our authorized installers to a wide range of vehicles and is compatible with every Mercedes vehicle. Unlike other products on the market The GHOST is compatible with your vehicle's existing interfaces, such as buttons on your steering wheel and driver's side door cards or the centre console. It's a stealth-immobiliser for the 21st century, which works independently of your factory-installed alarm or tracker.
The Ghost can be disabled by entering a secret sequence of buttons that can be accessed through the driver's smartphone application. It's easy to perform and can be done from any place in the world. You can modify it at any time you want and only the app's owner will see the modifications.
You can disable the GHOST on your satnav using a different sequence. This makes it more secure and deterrent to thieves. In fact this method is so efficient that it was used to deter thieves. A Bentley Bentayga worth PS200k was recently stolen from a set of lights while it sat stationary and the driver entered in their PIN to deactivate the device.
No annual fees
Although traditional immobilisers block vehicles from starting without the proper key fob, Ghost goes a step further and thwarts a variety of techniques used by thieves to steal vehicles. For instance, it can detect signals jamming, device spoofing and other techniques that make the theft of your vehicle more difficult. The device requires an individual pin code or code sequence to start the vehicle. This deters thieves and encourages thieves to leave your car alone.
This makes it an ideal tool for high-end cars that are more at risk of theft. In the end, you will be able to enjoy greater security and preserve the value of your vehicle for resale. In addition installing the Ghost Immobiliser can even reduce the cost of car insurance. The Ghost Immobiliser is more expensive than standard immobilisers, but the peace mind that it provides is worth the cost.
Ghost does not require an annual subscription. Instead, it works by connecting to your mobile via low-energy bluetooth. This creates a secure encrypted connection between the immobiliser and your phone, making it nearly impossible for hackers or criminals to break into. There are also no LED indicators to reveal the location of the device.
The Autowatch Ghost car immobiliser is simple to install and remove. Its "service valet mode" lets you disable the immobiliser when you take your car for service or MOT'd. When you return, enter the PIN code in order to allow your vehicle to start again.
The Autowatch Ghost can also be used with newer vehicles that do not have an immobiliser fitted at the factory. This means it can be transferred between cars after you sell your old one, as long as the new vehicle is compatible.
There is no need to remember a PIN code
A ghost immobiliser is an extra layer that prevents thieves from starting your car even if they've copied or taken your key fob. It is connected to your vehicle's Control Area Network (CAN) and disables the motor if you hit the Start button without entering a PIN code. It doesn't require a brand new keypad, instead, it utilizes buttons that are located on your vehicle such as the steering wheels or door panels, as well as the centre console. This means it's not only undetectable to thieves, but it keeps the appearance of your car's interior.
