Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter
The technology has evolved to keep pace with the ever-increasing sophistication of car thieves. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser uses your car's buttons that are located on the steering wheel and on the centre console to create an unique pincode sequence that needs to be entered prior to driving your car.
The device is not detectable by thieves, utilizes CAN data, and has no circuit breakers, making it a safe and simple-to-install system. RCA Cheadle is an approved Ghost immobiliser fitter and a member of TASSA.
No Key Fobs or LED Signs
Autowatch Ghost is an immobiliser based on CAN that protects your vehicle against key-cloning and theft. It operates silently and is integrated into the CAN network of your car.
The buttons on the steering wheel and on the door panels of your vehicle create an unique, reusable PIN code (up to 20 presses) that must be entered prior to driving. ghost ii immobiliser is the same system that you use to access mobile banking or your credit card. You can change it at anytime. This can be done in just seconds from your smartphone with the app downloaded or, if prefer, to use your key fob.
This is a crucial aspect of the system which thieves will find difficult to crack or decipher because it does not require any additional electronic devices like the key fob. Therefore, there is no way thieves will be able to identify the code and will have a difficult time finding ways to get around this. It is also undetectable by tests since there aren't any radio signals being sent out and can't be detected by RF scanning technology that has been used to deceive existing security systems in recent years.
It is also weatherproof and can be connected to the vehicle's wiring at any time. This means it doesn't cause any damage or marks to your vehicle, making it an attractive option for people who care about their vehicles and want to increase their security.
This is the greatest benefit of all - because there aren't any signals being sent that would make it impossible for thieves to determine that they have hacked your security device and seek ways to get around it. It's a great option for any car owner's security, especially since the modern cars are becoming increasingly targeted by criminals who are able to benefit from the latest technology that is used in modern vehicles that are becoming more sophisticated.
No Radio Signals
Like the previous example, unlike vehicle security devices which require the use of a key fob or special pin code to turn off the ghost immobiliser, it operates silently and does not emit any radio signals. It is directly connected to the CAN bus, therefore a thief is unable to finding its presence. The immobiliser will not start your vehicle unless you enter the correct PIN sequence which can only be accomplished via a series of buttons that are pressed in a certain sequence - and it is easily managed by the application.
This makes it much more secure than immobilisers that employ a passive system. In these systems the immobiliser can only disconnect the ECU if the key is paired with an active signal. The systems can be turned off by tapping the receiver using a tag, typing in the pin number on an electronic keypad, or pressing a certain sequence of buttons on a screen. The ghost immobiliser, however, is not able to be disabled this way. If your vehicle is towed away or stolen it will not be able to return it until the pin code has been entered.
The ghost immobiliser has also been designed to be resistant to the most sophisticated theft methods like copying. This is because thieves could try to duplicate your key fob or even hack your vehicle's ECU to bypass the security. However the CAN immobiliser has been designed to prevent this by creating an individual pin code each time you want to start your car, which means that it is not possible to start your car using a cloned key or overriding system.
Additionally, the CAN immobiliser offers excellent protection against signal boosters, which is used by thieves to overcome the standard factory-fitted immobilisers. It is therefore one of the most effective and reliable immobilisers we fit at Progressive Parts. This is the reason it is insurance-approved and is also a popular choice for customers who need to give their car for valet parking or another service. It has a 'Service Mode' that permits your car to be driven for a short period without the need for a PIN code This can be handy if you have guests or valet drivers that want to drive your car.
No Circuit Cuts
Car theft in recent years has become more more common, with organised thieves employing sophisticated diagnostic devices to identify fitted security systems. The Ghost is designed to serve this purpose. It cannot be detected by any diagnostic tools, and it works silently with the CAN data circuit in the vehicle. It connects to the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) and a unique PIN code is entered which has to be used before the engine can start. The thief will not be able to steal your car by simply replacing the ECU or by putting in a brand 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 requiring your personal PIN. This is great for the time that your vehicle needs its maintenance, or if you have to leave the vehicle with a valet business or mechanic. You can also turn it off and on as you want to ensure that nobody else can start your vehicle, even if you're not there.

The Ghost is unnoticeable by advanced, high-end scan RF and code grabbing technology and is also a fully reversible device which can be put in place or removed at any time.
No RF Scanning
An immobiliser of standard design is intended to stop your car from being driven when you don't have appropriate key fob or code to activate it. It does this by sending an immobiliser signal to the ECU. The engine control unit recognizes the signal and shuts off any component that is compromised.
Modern thieves are always trying to keep ahead of car manufacturers. They have modified technologies like key cloning (relay attacks) and hacking (relay attacks), and even key theft. The thieves are often resorted to breaking and entering your home and sifting through your mailbox, stealing car keys from your handbag or even from inside your ignition.
The Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser on the market that guards you against all of these dangers. It operates in complete silence and does not transmit radio signals and is not able to be detected by scanners with RF. It's TASSA verified and approved by insurance companies, so you can be confident that it's safe to use and won't interfere with your warranty.
Ghost II is not detectable by diagnostic tools, unlike an immobiliser fitted at the factory. It's also unaffected by any other alarms, immobilisers or trackers you might have installed. This makes it a powerful standalone solution that cannot be disabled.
It's easy to use and you only need to enter your pin code and your car will begin to start. The immobiliser can also be set to a service valet mode which can be activated by pressing the buttons on your steering wheel or on the door panels. This is helpful when you wish to leave your car for valet service or transport it to garage. You can also alter the pin code as many times you want, to ensure that your vehicle is always secure.
