Protect Your Pride And Joy With The Ghost Immobiliser

Secure your prized possessions against theft with the ghost immobiliser price Immobiliser. This system is discrete and doesn't require additional key fobs.

The device makes use of the buttons in your vehicle (steering wheel, door panels & centre console) to create a unique pin code sequence up to 20 presses long. This will then authorize the startup of your vehicle.

Simple change of PIN code

With the rising rate of vehicle thefts, many owners are seeking to improve their security. There are many types of security devices that are sold aftermarket from tracking systems to alarms and immobilisers. However there are a few that are equally efficient in protecting your vehicle. While a tracking system may help you find your vehicle in the event of theft, it does not stop the crime from occurring in the first instance. An immobiliser, on contrary, does exactly what it says on the tin: it shuts down the engine of your vehicle so that it is unable to be started. The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is one of the most advanced options available on the market, making it virtually impossible for thieves to steal your vehicle.

The ghost device utilizes the buttons on your car to generate a unique sequence that must be entered in order for the engine to start. This can be done using the heater, window or indicator stalk buttons. There is also a mobile application that can be used as an emergency PIN override, which allows the driver to operate their vehicle without having to use the button sequence. This feature is particularly useful if you need to surrender your car to a valet service or parking, as the immobiliser is activated, but not disabled.

The Ghost is a unique and innovative device which works in conjunction with buttons in your vehicle rather than as a separate device. This means that it's not just a highly effective deterrent against vehicle theft but also a transferable device onto any other vehicles you may own, making it much more investment-wise than the traditional lock on your steering wheel.

Weatherproof small device

The Autowatch ghost immobiliser is a sophisticated security system that protects your vehicle from key cloning, hacking & ECU swapping. It is a weatherproof tiny device that communicates directly with your vehicle's ECU over the CAN data bus to disable the engine. It can be placed in the vehicle without the need for additional wiring and has been extensively tested to ensure that it is compatible with all vehicles. It is also indestructible to jamming devices, which is a common technique used by thieves to get around existing immobilisers.

The benefit of using CAN data is that it runs silently compared to traditional systems. It's not detected by sophisticated RF scanning or code-grabbing technologies and is also unrecognizable by conventional diagnostic tools. The Autowatch ghost does not produce LED indicators and instead uses the buttons on your vehicle, such as the steering wheel, centre console or door panels to create a unique, changeable disarm sequence. You can even create a sequence that is up to 20 presses long to increase security. The iPhone app permits one, authorized connection, with the pairing code unique to the Ghost and the communication between the two devices is encrypted.

The Ghost also prevents car thieves from using the key to a new car or replacing the ECU to bypass the immobiliser and start the engine. It will only allow the engine to start when the correct PIN code is entered. It can also be put into valet/service mode for a temporary operation (with defined parameters like a 30mph speed limit) to allow you to transfer your vehicle to a valet service or to be serviced without needing to enter a PIN.

Tested for each vehicle

The Autowatch Ghost is the world's first aftermarket immobiliser on the CAN bus that is able to be connected to your vehicle's existing wiring and connects to your engine control unit (ECU). The device intercepts electronic signals to disable the system of your vehicle from running its normal startup routine until you input an individual passcode. The system can be activated or deactivated through your smartphone's app without the need for extra wires.

Standard factory immobilisers in vehicles work by having an electronic transponder in the key that sends an electronic signal to the ECU. If the correct code is sent the car will start, but if a transponder is swapped with one from another vehicle the immobiliser won't recognize it. This allows the vehicle to be started and stolen. The Ghost immobiliser has been developed by a South African company at the forefront of vehicle security systems technology. It protects your vehicle from hacking, key cloning and even key theft. The only way that a burglar could take your vehicle is physically towing it away and even then, they would not be allowed to drive it.

Ghost makes use of the buttons on your vehicle including the indicator stalk as well as the steering wheel and door panels to create an unique PIN sequence that can be changed that needs to be entered before you can drive. It does this without extra hardware, such as a keyfob. It can take up 20 to 20 presses. It is also undetectable by equipment for diagnostics and does transmit radio frequency signals, which means thieves are not able to use sophisticated RF scanners or code grabbing techniques to determine if a system has been installed.

Contrary to physical anti-theft devices such as clamps or wheel locks, Ghost is covertly integrated into the vehicle so it can't be disabled or removed by thieves. It's also harder to remove than a car alarm that requires disarming with a button sequence. This makes it an excellent alternative to a GPS tracker which helps locate your vehicle after it has been taken.

Emergency PIN code override

You don't have to look too far on social media to find stories or even videos of vehicles that have been taken by car thieves using the latest technology tools available to them. This includes key-cloning and hacking devices that allow them to start your vehicle without the original keys.

Our Ghost immobiliser fights this and provides you with an additional layer of security to stop your vehicle from being stolen if it is targeted by thieves. It creates a unique pin code by pushing the buttons on your steering wheel, door panel and the centre console. This unique PIN has to be entered in conjunction with your original key fob to prevent the vehicle from getting started. The unique override pin can be located on a black card that you will receive after the installation. It is simple to remember since there are no LED indicators.

The device is hidden inside the vehicle's wires, and doesn't emit any radio signals, so it can't be identified by modern criminals using diagnostic software that can detect the type of security system you have installed. This makes it a great alternative to an electronic device for tracking.

In contrast to other security systems that use a relay inside the engine bay these CANBUS Immobilisers communicate with the vehicle's ECU and BCM via CAN data bus (brand dependent). This allows them to disable the vehicle completely through a digital block of commands for both the ECU and the engine.

These systems can also be linked to a separate alarm immobiliser or tracker. This should be decided prior to the installation. They are also compatible with service/valet modes and is a great alternative to a tracker device when you bring your vehicle to the dealer to address an electrical issue.

Service/Valet mode

In recent years there has been an increase in vehicles being stolen without the owners keys. It's now easier than ever before to steal your pride & joy due to the availability of key cloning tools and door lock picks.
