Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me

Modern criminals can steal a car in less than a minute. They use the cars OBD port to hack into the ECU and then duplicate a new key, all using a hidden laptop in the car.

An Autowatch Ghost immobiliser prevents this by sending a sequence of pin codes via the buttons that are already in your vehicle (steering wheel & central console). It is completely inaccessible to anyone inside your car.

No key fobs or LED indications to give away the location of the vehicle.

If you're looking for a solution to stop keyless entry theft or key cloning then you should look no further than the ghost immobiliser. This device shields your vehicle from these types of attacks by preventing the engine from running when the proper pin code is entered. This is an effective way to protect your car. Even car insurance companies consider it a security feature that can reduce the cost of a policy.

The ghost install (Legra writes) connects to the CAN data network of your vehicle. Once it is installed by Car Theft Solutions, it will only work when you enter your personal override code and a specific button combination. This means that any attempt to start the vehicle without entering this code will be met with a loud siren, and the engine won't start. The criminal will realize that they've been caught and is likely to get out of the vehicle and escape.

This system has the advantage of not transmitting any signals, like the tracker. Thieves aren't able to use RF receivers to pinpoint your Ghost unit's location. It does not emit any IR (infrared signals) as do typical remote control key fobs and trackers, making it very difficult to hack or evade.

Another advantage of the ghost is that it has an option for valet parking that can be activated when you surrender your vehicle for valet parking or servicing. This will disable the immobiliser on the CAN for 30mph and allows you to operate the vehicle in normal mode using your key fob or smartphone app. If the vehicle is parked up again the Ghost will regain full function.
