10 Misconceptions Your Boss Holds Regarding Ghost Immobiliser Tracker

Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter

Car thieves are becoming more sophisticated and smarter, so technology has to change to keep up. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser works with your vehicles existing buttons on the steering wheel, centre console and door panels to make a unique pin code sequence that needs to be entered before driving your car.

The device is unnoticeable to thieves, it utilizes CAN data and has no circuit cuts, which makes it extremely secure and easy to install system. RCA Cheadle are an approved installer of Ghost immobilisers and a member of TASSA.

No Key Fobs or LED Signs

Autowatch Ghost is a CAN-based immobiliser that protects your vehicle from key-cloning and theft. It is silently operated and is integrated into your car's CAN network.

It generates a unique alterable PIN code sequence (up to 20 presses) by pressing the buttons on your car's door and steering wheel that need to be entered prior to being able to drive. This is the same method that you use to access mobile banking or your credit card. You can alter it at anytime. It can be done in a matter of seconds with your smartphone and the application you downloaded. Or, if you prefer using your keyfob.

This is a crucial characteristic of the system that thieves will be unable to break or figure out since it doesn't require any additional electronics, like the key fob. As such, there is no way that thieves will know the code and will be unable to find ways to get around this. It's also inaccessible to diagnostics as there are no radio signals being transmitted and cannot be detected by RF scanning technology that has been used to deceive existing security systems in recent years.

It's also weatherproof and fits into the form of a small, waterproof device that is plugged into the vehicle's wiring harness at any time in your vehicle. It won't damage or leave marks on your vehicle, making it a great option for those who are worried about their cars and want to improve their security.



This is the best part of all - because there aren't any signals being sent and there is no way for thieves to see that they have hacked your security device, and seek ways of bypassing it. It is an excellent addition to the security of any car owner, particularly because criminals are increasingly targeting the latest vehicles that have advanced technology.

No Radio Signals

Like the previous example, unlike security devices for vehicles that require an ID card or special pin code to deactivate the ghost immobiliser, the ghost works silently and does not emit any radio signals. It is directly connected to the CAN bus, so a thief is unable to finding its presence. The immobiliser won't be able to start your car unless you enter the right PIN sequence. This is only possible by pressing a series of buttons in a particular sequence. It is easy to manage via the app.

This makes it a lot more secure than other immobilisers that employ passive systems, where the immobiliser is only able to disconnect the ECU from power when the key is present and has an active signal on board. These systems can be turned off with a tag or keypad, by entering a pin code into the keypad, or pressing a particular sequence of buttons. However the ghost immobiliser can't be disabled in this way, so if you have your car towed or stolen, you'll not be allowed to return it until you enter the correct pin code.

The ghost immobiliser has also been designed to be resistant to the most sophisticated theft methods, such as the cloning technique. This is because thieves may try to duplicate your key fob or even hack your vehicle's ECU to bypass the security. The CAN immobiliser blocks this by creating a unique pin code every time you start your vehicle. This means that any cloned keys or overriding systems won't work.

The CAN immobiliser also offers an excellent defense against signal boosters, which are often used by thieves to circumvent standard security systems that are fitted by the factory. This means it is one of the most reliable and effective immobilisers that we fit at Progressive Parts. This is why it is insurance-approved and is also a favorite among customers who need to give their car for valet parking or a service. It also has a "Service Mode' that allows your car to be driven on a temporary basis without the need for a PIN, which can come in handy when you have guests or valet drivers who want to drive your vehicle.

No Circuit Cuts

Car theft in recent years has become more more common with organised thieves using sophisticated diagnostic devices to identify fitted security systems. The Ghost is specifically designed to serve this purpose. It cannot be detected by any diagnostic tools, and it works silently with the vehicle's CAN data circuit. It connects to the vehicle's ECU and an individual pin code is entered. This must be used to start the engine. The thief won't be able to take your car by simply replacing the ECU or adding a new key. They must first enter the correct PIN code.

The system features a service mode that allows your vehicle to be started and driven without the need for a unique PIN. This is great if you need to leave your vehicle with a mechanic or valet service. You can also switch it on and off at will so that no one else will be able to start your vehicle even if you're there.

The Autowatch Ghost is a subtle, next generation device that is connected to the CAN data network of your vehicle and comes with a personal PIN code that you set with our team. It is entered using buttons on your dashboard and steering wheel to disable your engine. It's a weatherproof and tiny device that cannot be identified by traditional methods, which means there aren't any LED indicators, and it's completely hidden during installation and fitting. The Ghost is undetectable with the help of sophisticated RF scanning technology. It is also adjustable and can be removed and removed at any time.

No RF Scanning

Standard immobilisers are made to stop your vehicle from starting if you do not have the proper key fob or code. It does this by sending an alert to the ECU, which is then acknowledged by the engine control unit, and shuts down any components in the system that may be compromised.

Modern thieves are always looking to stay ahead of car manufacturers. They have developed new techniques like key cloning (relay attacks), hacking (relay attacks) as well as key theft. These thieves will often resort to breaking and entering your home and sifting through your letterbox, stealing the keys to your car from your purse or even from your ignition.

The Ghost is the world's first aftermarket immobiliser for CAN buses that shields your vehicle from all these dangers.

Ghost II is not detectable by diagnostic tools, unlike an immobiliser that is installed in the factory. It's also unaffected by any other alarms, immobilisers or trackers that you may have installed. This makes it a highly effective standalone solution that can't be removed.

It's simple to use too - just enter your pin code and the car will start. The immobiliser also has an option for service valet which can be activated by pressing the buttons on the steering wheel or on the door panels. This is useful if you need to leave your car with valet service or transport it to garage. You can also change the pin code as many times you'd like, to ensure that your vehicle is always secure.
