Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser
Ghost Immobiliser is a renowned product that safeguards your vehicle against key-cloning hacking and theft. This TASSA verified system remains undetectable to thieves and stops them from starting your car.
This silent device uses buttons that are located on the steering wheel, centre console, and on the door panels of your vehicle. This allows you to create an individual PIN code that is up to 20 characters long that must be entered before the car starts.
Easy to install
It is more crucial than ever to protect your vehicle. With car thefts increasing and cloning tools easily available, it's vital to take precautions. Our Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is a discreet and effective aftermarket solution that protects against key-cloning and vehicle theft. The device is completely inaccessible to thieves, and operates through buttons on the steering wheel or the door panels. This allows customers to make an individual disarm sequence similar to that of a credit card which must be entered before the vehicle can start or be driven away. This makes it almost impossible to identify and is not affected by blocking devices or spoofing devices like other systems.
Installation of the Ghost unit requires a highly skilled installer. The unit is carefully integrated into the CAN bus system of your vehicle and is able to communicate directly with the ECU. The Ghost can be installed without affecting the factory settings. It is not possible for thieves to evade the system with signal boosters.
After the Ghost is installed, a new and improved sequence to disarm is required to be inputted in order to activate your car. Press the service button five times in a matter of 2 seconds, but be sure that you don't hold it for too long. The system will flash twice to signal that Transport Mode is active. This feature is ideal for classic, sports and prestige vehicles that require their security systems to be temporarily disabled during transportation or during servicing.
Once Transport Mode is activated, the immobiliser will be disabled and cannot be activated by entering your PIN code again. This feature is great for those who want to store their vehicles over the winter months to keep them from being stolen or to avoid paying higher insurance rates.

It's also incredibly stealthy, and can be hidden in a hard-to-reach place like behind the dashboard or inside the steering wheel trim.
It's a great choice for cars with high performance since it can shut off the vehicle's ignition when a wrong pin code is entered, thus preventing thieves from driving off with your pride and joy. The device can send an alert to an iPhone if the vehicle is left unattended while in public. This will give you peace of mind while away from your car.

The device is not have any indicators with LEDs or key fobs to indicate its whereabouts. It is hidden under the steering wheel, dashboard or dashboard of your vehicle and uses buttons to generate a unique PIN sequence that needs to be entered to start the engine. The thief is unable to drive away the vehicle even if they have your keys because they do not know the correct code. The device does not transmit radio signals, and therefore organized gangs of thieves using diagnostics reading tools will be not able to detect it.
This advanced immobiliser is TASSA approved and can reduce your insurance costs, particularly for modified vehicles that have been customised by their owners. It also prevents key theft and ECU switching, meaning that the only way for a thief to take your pride and happiness is to tow it.
Since the system doesn't use the factory key fobs or the dashboard buttons it is an entirely silent device, it communicates with your ECU through the CAN data circuit which is completely silent and gives no indication that it's installed. It means that a criminal would not be able to install new key fobs or even replace the ECU in order to get your vehicle to start, which negates any other theft methods that have been used in recent years, such as key cloning, scans using radio frequency, and code taking.
If you forget your PIN code Our engineers have provided a reset emergency for the device that allows you to enter "service mode". This will allow the dealer or technician to temporarily start and drive your vehicle so that they can carry out maintenance work, MOTs or valet parking without having to enter the PIN code once more. Once the technician has finished their task or you have removed your vehicle, simply enter the PIN code and the device will be out of service mode depending on the speed and time.
No radio signals
The Ghost immobiliser, unlike many other security systems for cars does not rely on alarm systems or key fobs to stop vehicles from beginning. It communicates with the vehicle's ECU, the CAN data circuit, and other circuits to prevent the engine from starting. This makes it a discreet solution that isn't affected by key cloning or RF scanning techniques employed by thieves to bypass other security devices. It can also be paired with tracking systems to enhance the security of your vehicle. It can also alert you to any attempted tampering or theft.

Ghost isn't without issues. Users frequently have difficulty completing the correct sequence to disarm. The device requires input from buttons that are already on your vehicle such as those found on the steering column or console. It can be difficult for users to remember, or they might get it wrong the first time around. It is recommended to read the instruction manual that comes with the device and practice the disarming process prior to driving.
Another issue is that certain vehicles are experiencing issues with the CAN data connection, which could affect the performance of the Ghost. This could be due to malfunctioning sensors or an damaged OBD port. It is best to test the system again prior to using it in the event of any issues with the CAN connection.
Change your PIN code quickly
The Ghost is a fantastic product that has become a huge hit on the market. However the process of changing the pin code can be confusing. The device is programmed by the installer once it's fitted but sometimes customers might prefer to change their pin code for different reasons such as: they would prefer an alternative button to disable the device or they don't want their installer to know or they don't want to use their current pin code. The good news is that the switching to a different pin number is very simple. Follow the simple instructions below to learn how.
Be aware that you will need to turn the ignition on but do not start your car! It will take only about a minute to complete. The vehicle will then return to normal operation.
