Ghost Immobiliser 2
Secures your vehicle from key cloning and prevents thieves from driving it with original keys. Our most recent immobiliser connects to your vehicle's CAN data network & the unique PIN code needs to be entered for the engine to begin.
Ghost unlike trackers, doesn't emit radio frequency signals, and therefore cannot be identified by diagnostic tools. It does not have any LED indicators or buttons that could signal its presence in your van or car.
Anti-key Cloning
The ghost immobiliser was designed to stop key hacking and cloning. This device connects with your vehicle's data network CAN and creates a unique pin number using the factory buttons on your dashboard and steering. This prevents the thief being able to start your vehicle. If the wrong PIN is entered, it will stop the engine from starting and making it impossible to leave with joy and pride.
A ghost immobiliser is a new technology that is extremely hard for thieves to beat. The ghost immobiliser is different from physical deterrents such as wheel locks and steering lock that can be cut, is a discrete electronic device. It's not even detected by thieves because it does not emit radio signals and is operated in a silent manner.
The next-generation immobiliser protects your car against a variety of threats, including key-hacking, relay attacks and cloned copies. It also stops the thief from adding a key or replacing your ECU because it won't permit them to start the car without first entering the correct PIN.
In contrast to other immobilisers the ghost immobiliser 2 does not require a key fobs or remotes for operation. It is able to be deactivated by the driver's smartphone using a simple app. This is perfect for when you have to hand your car away for valet parking, or maintenance without key fobs.
The Autowatch Ghost-II is the latest evolution of our ground-breaking ghost immobiliser. It is designed to be as simple and easy to use as is possible, yet remains as secure as ever. This is accomplished by integrating the Ghost-II into the vehicle's data network CAN, which means there are no wires to hide or be easily located. It also comes with built-in features that allow you to disarm the Ghost-II simply by connecting it to the vehicle's Bluetooth.
OBD port hacking
OBD port hacking has become the most recent method employed by professional car thieves. Thieves have access to your vehicle's OBD by using the help of a laptop, mobile app, and some cables that are available online for less than PS50. Once they have access to your vehicle's OBD port, they are able to do whatever they like from setting fault codes, and tuning your vehicle to taking away your pride and joy in less than a minute.
If you have a Ghost immobiliser fitted it can protect your vehicle from theft with this method by requiring that a unique PIN sequence is entered into your key fob to start the engine and then drive away. It does this by interacting with the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) via the CAN Data circuit, and is completely undetectable to any RF scanning or code grabbing technology. It also includes a Service/Valet mode that will allow your vehicle to start without the need for a PIN code.
To make use of an OBD hacking device, you'll require an operating system that is capable of reading the OBD protocol, which can be purchased for under PS100 on eBay or Amazon. You will also require a cable that has OBD pins connected to the CAN Bus. These cables can be bought on eBay or Amazon for PS50. The cable must be connected to the wiring harness of your car,
Ghost 2 Immobiliser like the radio wiring harness.
Once the hacker has established a connection to your vehicle's OBD port, they can send diagnostics requests to the system at a high baud rate which can cause CAN to crash and stop systems inside your vehicle from functioning. This could cause the engine to stall, doors to lock and even the brakes to be engaged.
No need to purchase additional remotes or
Ghost 2 Immobiliser key fobs
A car immobiliser is a excellent piece of anti-theft technology used by billions of modern cars around the world. Utilizing engine ECU software to prevent vehicles from starting if a false transponder signal is sent to it, an aftermarket immobiliser is an excellent way to safeguard your vehicle.
However, it could be simple for a burglar to get around an immobiliser system in the event that they have access the code that allows them to disable it. The battery inside most key fobs can be removed by prying it open and a burglar can make use of a simple tool to remove the immobiliser's internal circuit board and replace it with the blank. They will then be able start your car.
With the TASSA approved Ghost 2 immobiliser (
star-ton.com officially announced), there are no additional keys or remotes required. The immobiliser communicates with the vehicle's engine ECU (Engine Control Unit) via a subtle and silent CAN data circuit that is not detectable by diagnostic tools, such as the ones used by high-tech thieves. It doesn't come with a traditional keyfob that has an LED indicators, which means it's not visible.
There will be times that you must deactivate Autowatch Ghost 2's auto-protection for instance, during a valet parking or service job.
ghost immobiliser review CAN immobilisers come with a feature called "Service Mode that is activated with just a click of a phone button. The car is still operational however, the maximum speed is restricted to 36mph.

Simple Change of PIN Code
Ghost is the next-generation device that protects your vehicle without cutting wires or installing aftermarket key fobs. It is directly connected to the vehicle's CAN data network, and a personal PIN code is programmed into it via buttons on your steering wheel & dash. The system stops engine start and can't be re-enabled since no RF signals are emitted from the device. This makes it difficult to be detected using sophisticated RF scanning and code grabbing techniques that are used by modern thieves.
The PIN code can be changed to block earlier drivers or include an override code if you forget the sequence. During installation, the installer will demonstrate how to do this. The system includes a valet mode feature that allows you to temporarily disable pin input sequences so that your garage or mechanic can service the vehicle without knowing the code. This is a great option for customers who don't want their pin number to be disclosed, but wish to leave their car with valet parking or service.
Ghost is a discrete system that uses the buttons on your vehicle to create a unique and interchangeable PIN sequence. The sequence is entered using the smartphone application. No extra LED indicators are thrown out, and your vehicle is secured without chance of being disabled.
Tested for each vehicle
A ghost immobiliser, unlike key fobs that require you to press buttons, is discreetly placed under the dash or steering wheel. It is not obvious that it's there. The device is connected to the CAN network of your vehicle and a PIN code can be programmed using the buttons on your vehicle. The system will not allow your vehicle to start until this code is entered. This means that thieves cannot clone your car's existing keys or gain access to the OBD port to hack into your vehicle.
Ghost can be installed in any vehicle, including electric cars, vans motorhomes and bikes. It is also extremely versatile and can be programmed to turn off under different circumstances. For instance, it can be programmed to go into Valet mode when the car is taken to a valet parking or service company.
