TASSA Approved
The TASSA-certified Ghost-II CAN from Autowatch is a groundbreaking device designed to combat the latest car crime trends including key cloning,
ghost 2 Immobiliser installation hacking and other types of theft. This smart system connects directly to the CAN network of your vehicle, preventing it from being turned on or driven in the event that you don't have the proper code. The system is completely undetectable and doesn't make use of radio frequencies or an electronic key fob, rather it lets you create an individual PIN sequence using the buttons on your vehicle such as the ones on the dashboard or steering wheel that you can alter at anytime. The PIN can be up to 20 times long for maximum security. A secure emergency code is also available.
The system communicates with the vehicle's CAN data network to determine when the PIN is entered. This is then sent to the vehicle which disables the ignition and engine, and shuts down crucial components such as the starter motor and the fuel pump. The system comes with a "valet mode' that lets you deactivate it, preventing valets and staff from driving your vehicle without the proper key.
Unlike conventional immobiliser relays, which can be disarmed with readily available diagnostic tools for professionals The Ghost device uses the onboard data network to communicate with the ECU and cannot be altered with. It's a sealed unit, so it is impossible to monitor the circuits, which makes it near impossible for thieves to hear the tell-tale clicking noise that traditional immobiliser relays produce.
This technology is not susceptible to jamming devices utilized by high-tech thieves. Furthermore, since it works on the CAN data network it's also not detectable by other diagnostic tools. This makes it an ideal anti-theft solution to fit any modern vehicle.

The Ghost is an aftermarket security device that protects your vehicle from the kinds of thieves who would be looking to steal your car. It works by preventing the engine from running until the appropriate sequence of buttons is pressed. This sequence is only known by you, and in the event that your vehicle is stolen thieves, they will not be able to start it and may leave the vehicle in peace for fear of being caught. Ghosts have a silent mode that shuts down the vehicle when it is not being used. It can be disabled by pressing the button.
The system is fully TASSA-approved, meaning that some insurers will recognize it as an additional security measure for your vehicle. It can be used alongside other Thatcham approved security measures like trackers to prevent your car from being stolen and provides extra security.
The system also communicates with the ECU of your vehicle via the CAN data loop which is completely inaudible to diagnostic tools. This means that a burglar can't simply insert a new key or swap the ECU to get around the Ghost. The system will only allow your car to start when the correct pin code is entered. This unique PIN code is only available to you and can be changed at any time.
The Ghost is a very discrete immobiliser that can be fitted to almost all vehicles without wiring or installing aftermarket key fobs. It is directly connected to the vehicle's CAN data network and a PIN code can be programmed using the buttons on the dashboard or steering wheel. This code will prevent the vehicle from being started unless the correct sequence of events has been selected first. If the code is guessable, there are safe emergency codes that can be reset via your mobile phone. Additionally there is a simple application available for iOS and Android which eliminates the requirement to enter your pin every occasion, providing even more hassle free security.
Distinction
An immobiliser, unlike a GPS tracker, which helps you find your vehicle after it's stolen, stops the vehicle from ever being stolen in the first place. It does this by stopping the engine from running until it receives the correct code from the key fob, or a smartphone application downloaded to it. This is a great way to stop wheel-jacking and other types of theft because the person who is stealing has no choice but to leave the car alone or risk being taken into custody.
The ghost immobiliser is a weatherproof tiny device that is tucked away inside the wiring harness in your vehicle. It has a connection to the CAN data network and is hidden away so that thieves cannot find it or disable it with simple wire cutting. The system also has a service mode which can be activated to allow garages to work on your vehicle without needing to know the passcode in order for it to begin.
After you've had the device installed in your vehicle it will be able to arm and disarm it from your smartphone using its dedicated app. You can even change the PIN code at any point to ensure that only you have access to your vehicle. This is beneficial if you're planning to sell your vehicle in the near future, as it will increase its resale value.
Another great feature of the Ghost immobiliser is that it's discrete and leaves no marks on your internal body of your vehicle which makes it a great addition to any vehicle. It's easy to fit and operates quietly, and won't disrupt any other systems in your car.
Many people are putting more focus on the appearance of their vehicles and a subtle immobiliser can improve the look and feel of your car. This is especially appealing to those who utilize their vehicles to transport expensive goods because it can help stop potential thieves from pursuing them. Ghost immobilisers work in conjunction with other anti-theft technology like trackers to provide unparalleled protection for your car.
Low Maintenance

It also doesn't emit radio signals and is completely silent so thieves cannot detect it working. It can be hidden in many different locations, (even underneath the floor mats) and is a great option for those who wish to secure their vehicle without compromising on aesthetics.
This device prevents your car from starting unless you enter the password that is unique to you. This is done by pressing a set of buttons on your dashboard as well as the steering wheels in a particular sequence. This will prevent thieves from cloning or hacking into your system, and prevent them from starting your vehicle.
Thieves may also try and boost your signal to gain access to your vehicle, however the Ghost will detect this and stop your vehicle from starting until you enter the correct disarming sequence. In contrast to other security systems which can be activated through entering the incorrect code and the Ghost will not allow your car from starting until you put in the correct passcode.
The Ghost will remain in "service mode until you activate it by pressing the same combination of buttons that you used to arm it (this can be done by visiting your dealer for maintenance or warranty work).
