Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me
Modern thieves can rob a car in under a minute. They make use of the car's OBD port to hack the ECU and then duplicate a new key, all via an unnoticed laptop inside the car.
The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser will prevent this by sending pin codes to buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels & central console). It is completely invisible to anyone inside your car.
No key fobs or LED indicators or other means to locate the vehicle are accessible.
If you're looking for a way to stop keyless entry theft or key cloning, then you should look at the ghost immobiliser. This device is designed to safeguard your vehicle from these types of attacks, by blocking the engine once a correct pin code is entered. This is an extremely efficient method of protecting your car, and even insurance companies recognize it as a safety measure that can help reduce the cost of your policy.
The ghost is connected to the CAN data network of your vehicle. Once it is installed by Car Theft Solutions, it will only work if you enter your personal override code as well as a specific button combination. This means that any attempt to start the vehicle without entering this code will be greeted by a loud siren and the engine will not start. The thief will then realize that they have been caught and will most likely leave the vehicle.
One of the major advantages of this system is that it does not transmit any signals, like a tracker, this means that thieves cannot use RF signal receivers to pinpoint the location of your Ghost unit. It does not emit any IR (infrared signals) as do typical remote control key fobs as well as trackers, making it difficult to bypass or hack.
The Ghost also comes with valet-mode which is activated if you are handing your vehicle to valet to park or service. This will turn off the immobiliser CAN for 30mph and allow you to use your vehicle just as normal by with your key fob.

No hacking or cloning
The Autowatch Ghost is one of the most advanced immobilisers on the market, it protects your vehicle from hacking or key cloning, making it near impossible to take. The only way that a burglar could take your vehicle is physically towing it away & even then they wouldn't be capable of starting the engine.
This is because unlike other immobilisers that prevent the car from starting if they don't have your fob, this clever system actually disconnects the engine control unit so that the vehicle cannot start. The system transmits a message through buttons on the steering wheel, door panel or the centre console. It is only disarmed using the proper pin code configuration.
Its sleek and discreet design allows it to seamlessly into your car without the need for additional keys or LED indicators. It operates independently of your factory alarm or tracker. It also functions as a bus immobiliser which means that it is part of the control area network of your vehicle and is not interfering with any other devices such as the built-in key fob or alarm.
This unique technology is not detectable by thieves, unlike other systems that use codes grabbing and RF scanning. It only transmits a series of pin codes that are silently transmitted through the buttons on your car's steering wheel or door panels, or central console. The Ghost is a groundbreaking product that shields your vehicle from keyless entry theft and smart key theft. It does this by generating a unique pin code, which needs to be entered to disarm the device.
The number of vehicles that have no keyless entry in circulation is increasing. Thieves are becoming more sophisticated and employ cloning devices which can be bought through classifieds or online for under PS15. The cloned key fob can be used to gain access to the vehicle. The standard immobiliser can only stop the car from starting if the person who stole it has the original key fob. It's not enough security and it's very easy for criminals to jam or fake signals to unlock the vehicle.
Valet mode
An immobiliser that is standard on your vehicle has an electronic chip that transmits a signal when you press your key fob button, the system will then search for the particular code you have sent from the key to start the car. If the correct signal isn't detected, it will simply cut off and prevent the engine from starting. This is the principle behind all immobilisers that ghost car immobiliser are sold aftermarket. It's a crucial step to protect your vehicle from being stolen, even if someone has your keys or an accessory that can boost the signal of your key fob.
A ghost immobiliser does more than just stop this. The system, which is located on the CAN Bus of your Mercedes is programmed with an unique PIN code that must be entered in order to start the vehicle. It is then secured on your app and no one can ever access it unless they have the same pin you have.
The system also stops hacking, cloning and signal jamming (which can be used by thieves to bypass the immobiliser on your vehicle). If a criminal gets their hands on your car keys or key fob, they will not be able start your vehicle even if it is parked nearby. The only way they could escape with your car would be to physically take it away in an oversized lorry that has a flatbed which is highly unlikely.
Valet mode comes as a standard feature with your ghost immobiliser. When it is turned on the glove box and trunk of your car will be locked. This means that anyone who tries to steal your car will not have anything personal to steal. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla so that it can't be driven at over 70mph and disables ludicrous mode. It will also hide your work and home addresses as well as make your driver profiles secure, and lock your Tesla dashboard so that no one else can access your private data.
If you wish to use your car as valet parking, or for service, choose the 'Valet/Service' option in the dashboard app. Enter your 4-digit valet code onto the touchscreen. The alarm won't work, but the car won't begin until you have entered an authentic pin. This is a great option for those who need to transfer their car to others such as taxi drivers and garage mechanics.
