Ghost Immobiliser 2

Secures your vehicle from key cloning and prevents thieves from driving the vehicle using original keys. Our most recent immobiliser connects to your vehicles data network, CAN, and the unique PIN code needs to be entered for the engine to start.

Ghost, unlike trackers, doesn't emit radio frequency signals and can't be detected by diagnostic tools. Ghost doesn't have LED indicators or buttons that could signal its presence in your car or van.

Anti-key Cloning

The ghost immobiliser is designed to stop key cloning and hacking. The device connects to the CAN data network of your vehicle and creates an unique pin code sequence that is activated by pressing the factory buttons on your dashboard as well as the steering wheel. This will stop the thief from being able start your vehicle. If the wrong PIN is entered, it will prevent the engine from starting and making it impossible to leave with joy and pride.

A ghost immobiliser is a new technology that is extremely hard for thieves to defeat. Unlike physical deterrents like wheel locks and steering locks that can be cut or jacked, the ghost immobiliser is an invisible electronic device that cannot be recognized by ordinary thieves since it doesn't emit any radio signals and operates in a silent manner.

This next-generation immobiliser will protect your car from a variety of threats, including key hacking, relay attacks and copied copies. It also stops a thief adding a key or replacing your ECU as it won't allow them to start your car without first entering the correct PIN code.

The ghost immobiliser 2 unlike other immobilisers does not require a remote control or key fob to operate. It can be deactivated from the driver's phone with a simple application. This is ideal when you have to hand your car to valet parking, or for maintenance without key fobs.

The Autowatch Ghost-II represents the latest evolution of Ghost's immobiliser. It is designed to be as simple and convenient to use as possible, but remains as secure as ever. This is achieved by integrating the Ghost-II with the vehicle's CAN data network. This means that there are no wires that could be concealed or easily found. It also comes with built-in features that allow you to disarm the Ghost-II simply by connecting it to your vehicle's Bluetooth.

OBD port hacking

OBD port hacking is the latest method used by professional car thieves. Thieves have access to your vehicle's OBD with the help of a laptop, mobile application, and a few cables that can be bought online for less than PS50. Once they have access to your vehicle's OBD port, they are able to do whatever they want, from resetting fault codes and tuning your car to stealing your pride and joy in under a minute.

It can protect your vehicle from being stolen by requiring a specific PIN sequence to be entered with your key fob prior to you start the engine or leave. It communicates with the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) via the CAN Data Circuit. It is not detected by any scanners for RF or code grabbing. It also has a Service/Valet Mode that allows your vehicle to start without requiring a PIN code.

To utilize an OBD hacking device you must have an operating system that is capable of reading the OBD protocol. These can be bought for less than PS100 on eBay or Amazon. You'll also require a cable with OBD pins that are connected to the CAN bus, these can be purchased on Amazon or Ebay for about PS50. The next step is to connect the cable into the wire harness of your vehicle, for example, in the radio wiring harness.

Once the hacker has access to the OBD port on your vehicle, they can send diagnostics to the system at a high baud rates which can cause a crash to the car's CAN and stop the systems from working. This can cause the engine to stop or even lock doors, and even the brakes to activate.

No need for additional remotes or key fobs

The car immobiliser is a great piece of anti-theft technology that is used by billions modern vehicles across the globe. An aftermarket immobiliser safeguards your vehicle with engine ECU software that blocks cars from starting when an untrue transponder signal is sent.

It is possible for a thief to know the code to deactivate an immobiliser, and bypass it. The battery inside most key fobs is easily removed by removing it which means that a burglar could use a simple tool to take out the immobiliser's circuit board and replace it with the blank. They will then be able to start your vehicle.

With the TASSA approved Ghost 2 immobiliser, there are no additional keys or remotes needed. The immobiliser is directly connected to the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit). This is done by a discrete and silent data loop in CAN that is not detected by diagnostic tools, such as the ones used by high-tech thieves. It does not also make use of a traditional key-fob that has LED indicators, which means it can go undetected at sight.

Ghost CAN immobilisers have a mode called 'Service Mode,' which you can activate by just a click of a button on your phone. The car can still be operated however the maximum speed is limited to 36mph.

Simple change of PIN code

Ghost is the latest generation of device that secures your car without cutting wires or installing key fobs from an aftermarket. It connects directly with the vehicle's CAN data network. A personalised PIN can be created using buttons on the dash and steering wheel. The system blocks engine start and cannot be re-enabled since there are no RF signals emitted from the device. This makes it unrecognisable by sophisticated RF scanning or code grabbing technologies that modern thieves use.

The PIN code sequence can be altered whenever you want to block prior drivers, and it even has an override option in the event of a sequence that is not remembered. During installation the installer will show how to accomplish this. The system comes with a valet-mode feature that can be used to temporarily disable pin input sequences so that your garage or mechanic can service the vehicle without knowing the pin number. This is a great option for those who don't wish their pin sequence to be disclosed, but wish to leave their car with valet parking or service.

In contrast to Thatcham products that require additional key-fobs in order to operate, Ghost is a discreet system that uses the buttons inside your vehicle to create a unique and interchangeable PIN code sequence. The sequence is entered using the smartphone application. There are no additional LED indicators are thrown, and your vehicle is protected without risk of being disabled.



Every vehicle is tested

Ghost immobilisers, unlike key fobs that require pressing buttons, is hidden under the dash or on the steering wheel. It is not obvious that it's there. The device is connected to your car's CAN data networks and the personalised PIN code is inserted using existing buttons on your car.
