Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter
Car thieves are getting more sophisticated and smarter, therefore technology has to change to keep up. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser works with the buttons on the steering wheel, centre console and door panels to generate a unique pin code sequence which must be entered before driving your car.
The device is undetectable to thieves, it utilizes CAN data and does not have circuit cuts so is extremely secure and simple to install device. RCA Cheadle are an approved installer of Ghost immobilisers and members of TASSA.
No Key Fobs or LED Signs
The Autowatch Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN immobiliser that can ensure your car is safe from key cloning or hacking, as well as key theft. It operates in a quiet manner and is incorporated into the CAN network of your car.
It creates a unique, changeable PIN code sequence (up to 20 presses) by pressing the buttons on your car's door panels and steering wheel which must be entered before you can drive. It's the same system that you use to access your mobile banking or credit card and can be altered at any time. This can be done in a matter of minutes from your smartphone using the app installed or, if prefer, to use your key fob.
This is a key characteristic of the system that thieves will find difficult to break or figure out because it doesn't require any additional electronics, like the key fob. This means that there is no way the thief would know the code and will have a difficult time finding an escape route to this. It is also undetectable through diagnostics, as there are no radio signals being sent and it cannot be detected by RF scanner technology that was used to fool security systems in the past.
It's also weatherproof and can be plugged into the form of a small waterproof device that is plugged into the vehicle's wiring harness at any time in your vehicle. It will not harm or leave marks on your vehicle and is a great option for those who are concerned about their cars and want to improve their security.
This is the most important aspect of all. Since there aren't any signals sent and there is no way for thieves to determine that they have cracked your security device, and attempt to find ways to get around it. It's a great addition to the security of any car owner, especially because criminals are increasingly targeting the latest vehicles that have sophisticated technology.
No Radio Signals
As mentioned, unlike other vehicle security devices that require an ID card or specific pin code to disable the ghost immobiliser, the ghost works in a silent manner and doesn't emit any radio signals. It is connected directly to the CAN bus, therefore thieves is unable to being able to detect its presence. The immobiliser won't be able to start your vehicle unless you enter the correct PIN sequence, which can only be accomplished by pressing a few buttons that are pressed in a certain sequence - and it is easily managed via the app.
This makes it a lot more secure than other immobilisers which use a passive system, where the immobiliser will only shut off the ECU from power if there is a key present and there is an active signal on the board. The systems can be disabled using a tag or keypad and by entering a pin code into the keypad or by pressing a specific sequence of buttons. However, the ghost immobiliser cannot be disabled in this way in the event that you have your vehicle towed or stolen, you'll not be capable of driving it back until you enter the correct pin code.
The ghost immobiliser has been developed to resist the most sophisticated theft methods 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. The CAN immobiliser prevents this by generating a unique pin code every when you start your vehicle. This means that any cloned keys or overriding systems are not able to function.
The CAN immobiliser also provides an excellent defense against signal boosters, which are used by thieves to evade security systems that are fitted by the factory. This makes it one of the most reliable and efficient immobilisers that we fit at Progressive Parts. This is why it is insurance-approved, and it is also a popular choice for customers who need to give their car to valet parking or a service. It has the feature of "Service Mode" that allows you to drive your vehicle for a period of time without the need for a PIN code. This is helpful if guests or valet drivers wish to drive your car.
No Circuit Cuts
In recent years, car theft has become more and more frequent, with organized thieves using sophisticated diagnostic devices to identify fitted security systems. The Ghost is designed to serve this reason. It isn't detected through any diagnostics and operates in complete silence with the vehicle's CAN data circuit. It connects with the vehicle's ECU and a unique pin code is entered. This code is used to start the engine. The thief will not be able to take your vehicle simply by replacing the ECU or by putting in a brand new key. They must first enter the correct PIN code.
The system comes with the option of allowing your vehicle to be started and driven without the need for a unique PIN. This is ideal when your vehicle is receiving its service, or if you need to leave it with a valet service or mechanic.
