Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter
The technology has evolved to keep pace with the increasing sophistication of car thieves. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser works with your vehicles existing buttons on the steering wheel, centre console and door panels to make a unique pin code sequence which must be entered before driving your vehicle.
The device isn't easily detected by thieves, utilizes CAN data and does not have circuit breaks, making it a safe and simple-to-install system. RCA Cheadle are an approved fitter of Ghost immobilisers as well as a member of TASSA.
No key fobs or LED indicators.
Autowatch Ghost is an immobiliser using CAN that safeguards your vehicle from key-cloning and theft. It is integrated into the car's CAN data network and operates in a quiet manner, ensuring that it's undetectable and cannot be harmed through simple wire cutting.
The buttons on the steering wheel and the door panels of your vehicle generate a unique, re-usable PIN code (up to 20 presses) which must be entered prior to driving. This is the same method that you use to access your mobile banking or credit card and can be changed at any point. ghost immobilizer can be done in a matter of seconds on your smartphone, with the app installed or, if prefer, to use your key fob.
This is an important feature of the system, which thieves will find it difficult to crack or decipher since it doesn't require extra electronics such as the key fob. The thief is unable to decipher the code and will have a difficult time finding a way to overcome it. It's also unrecognizable by diagnostics as there are no radio signals being broadcast 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 plugged in to the vehicle's wiring at any point. This means it does not leave any marks or damage to your vehicle - making it a desirable option for those who value their vehicles and want to increase their security.
The most appealing aspect is that there are no signals being sent. This means that thieves are unable to see whether they have hacked the security device, or try to bypass it. It's an excellent security feature for any car owner, particularly because criminals are increasingly targeting the latest cars with their sophisticated technology.
No Radio Signals
Like the previous example, unlike security devices for vehicles that require an ID card or special pin code to turn off, the ghost immobiliser works silently and does not emit any radio signals. It connects directly to the CAN data bus, which means that a thief would have a difficult time trying to identify its presence in your vehicle. The immobiliser will not start your vehicle until you enter the correct PIN sequence which can only be done via a series of buttons that are pressed in a particular sequence - and it is easily controlled via the application.
This makes it more secure than immobilisers that use an active system. In these systems the immobiliser will only shut off the ECU in the event that the key is present with an active signal. Those systems can be disabled by tapping the receiver with tags, entering an identification number into an electronic keypad, or pressing a certain sequence of buttons on a display screen. However the ghost immobiliser cannot be disabled this way in the event that you have your car towed or stolen, you'll not be capable of driving it back until you enter the correct pin code.
The ghost immobiliser is also designed to be resistant to the most sophisticated forms of theft like the cloning technique. This is because thieves can attempt to duplicate your key fob or even hack into your vehicle's ECU and override its security. However the CAN immobiliser was designed to stop this from happening, since it generates an individual pin code every time you wish to start your car. This means that it will not be possible to start your vehicle using a cloned key or overriding system.
Additionally, the CAN-Immobiliser provides excellent protection against signal boosting that is utilized by thieves to overcome standard factory-fitted immobilisers. It is, therefore, one of the most effective and reliable immobilisers that we install at Progressive Parts. This is why it's insurance-approved and is also a favorite among customers who have to hand over their car for valet parking or a service. It also has the feature of "Service Mode" that allows you to drive your vehicle for a period of time without the need for an PIN code. This is helpful when your guests or valet drivers are able to drive your vehicle.
No Circuit Cuts
In recent years, car theft has become increasingly common with organised thieves using sophisticated diagnostics devices to detect fitted security systems. The Ghost is designed to fight this by not making circuit cuts, it is inaccessible to any diagnostics and operates in a silent manner on the vehicle's CAN data circuit. It is connected to the vehicle's ECU and it is able to identify a pin code when entered. This is required to start the engine. The thief will not be able to take your vehicle by simply replacing the ECU or adding a new key. They must first enter the correct PIN code.
The system also features the option of a service valet mode which allows your car to start and drive without needing your personal PIN. This is ideal the time that your vehicle needs its services, or when you need to leave it with a valet service or mechanic. You can switch it off and on whenever you please so that no-one else will be able to start your vehicle when you are not there.

No RF Scanning
Standard immobilisers are made to prevent your vehicle from starting in the event that you don't have the correct key fob or code. It does this by sending a signal to the ECU that is acknowledged by the engine control unit and will shut down any component of the system that are compromised.
Modern thieves, however, are always trying to stay ahead of car manufacturers. They have developed new technologies like key cloning (relay attacks) and hacking (relay attacks) as well as key theft. These thieves will often break into your home and fish through your mailbox. They can also steal your car keys from the ignition or in your handbag.
The Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN-bus immobiliser that shields you from all of these dangers.

It also works independently from any other immobiliser, alarm or tracker you may have installed, making it an effective standalone solution that can't be disabled.
It's also very simple to use - simply enter your pin code and the car will begin. The immobiliser also has an option for service valet that can be activated by pressing buttons on the steering wheel or door panels.
