Why You Need a
Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me
Modern thieves can steal a vehicle in under a minute. They use the cars OBD port to hack into the ECU and then duplicate a key, all using an unnoticed laptop inside the car.
The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser can prevent this by sending pin codes to the buttons on your vehicle (steering wheels & central console). It is completely invisible to anyone else in your car.
There are no key fobs or LED indications to give away the location of the vehicle.
The ghost immobiliser is the best method to protect against keyless entry theft and key copying. This device is designed to guard your vehicle from these kinds of attacks, by blocking the engine once a correct pin code has been entered. This is a highly efficient method of protecting your car, and even insurance companies recognize it as a precautionary measure that could help lower the cost of your policy.
The ghost connects to the CAN data network of your vehicle. Once it is installed by Car Theft Solutions, it is only functional when 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 criminal will then realize that they have been caught and will likely to abandon the vehicle and flee.
One of the major advantages of this system is that it does not transmit any signals like trackers, which means that thieves can't utilize RF signal receivers in order to determine the location of your Ghost device. It does not emit any IR (infrared signals) like standard remote control key fobs as well as trackers, making it hard to bypass or hack.
The Ghost also comes with a valet-mode that can be activated when you are giving your vehicle over to valet to park or service. This will disable the immobiliser CAN for 30mph and allow you to use your vehicle in normal fashion with your key fob. The Ghost will be fully functional when the vehicle is parked again.

No cloning or hacking
The Autowatch Ghost is one of the most advanced immobilisers on the market, it protects your vehicle from key cloning or hacking making it near impossible to steal. The only way to steal your car is to physically remove it. Even then, they wouldn't be able to start the engine.
This is because unlike other immobilisers that only stop the car from starting if you don't have your fob, this system actually shuts off your engine control unit so that the vehicle can't start. It does this by sending a signal to buttons on your steering wheel or door panel, or on your central console that can only be deactivated by entering the correct pin code configuration This feature that makes the Ghost so hard to crack.
Its sleek and discrete design allows it to fit in seamlessly into your vehicle, without any additional keys or LED indicators - it runs independently from your factory alarm or tracker. It also functions as a CAN bus immobiliser which means that it sits within your vehicle's control area network and doesn't interfere with any existing devices like the built-in key fob or alarm.
In contrast to other systems that depend on code grabbing or RF scanning this technology is undetectable to thieves since it sends a silent sequence of pin codes via the buttons that are already present on your vehicle's steering wheel and door panels as well as the central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary device that defends your vehicle from keyless entry and smart key theft by producing an individual, unique pin code which must be entered to deactivate it.
The number of vehicles that have no keyless entry in circulation is increasing. Thieves are becoming more sophisticated and use devices for cloning which can be bought online or in classifieds for less than PS15. The cloned key fob can be used to gain access to the vehicle. The standard immobiliser will stop the car from starting if the person who stole it has your original key fob. This is 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 uses an electronic chip that transmits an alert when you hit your key fob button. The system will then search for the particular code you have sent from the key to start the vehicle. If the signal isn't received, it will cut off and
Ghost 2 Immobiliser prevent the engine from beginning. This is the basic principle behind all immobilisers that are sold on the market and is a crucial security measure to ensure that your car isn't stolen even if someone else has your keys or a device that could boost your key fob signal.
But a ghost immobiliser doesn't only stop it from happening however, it goes far beyond that. The system, which is located on the CAN Bus of your Mercedes, has been programmed with a unique pin code that needs to be entered to begin the vehicle. The sequence is then encrypted in your application, and no one else can access it without having the same pin as you.
The system will also stop signal jamming, cloning and hacking (which thieves may use to bypass the immobiliser on your vehicle). This means that if a thief does manage to get your car keys or your key fob, they won't be in a position to start your car, even if they are in the vicinity of only a few feet of it. The only way they could take your car away would be to physically take it away in a flatbed lorry which is highly unlikely.
Valet mode is a handy feature that comes with your ghost immobiliser. When it is activated the car's glove box and trunk will be locked to ensure that thieves won't have any personal belongings to take. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla so that it can't be driven at speeds of more than 70mph, and it will also disable the ridiculous mode. It will also hide your work and home addresses, lock your driver profiles, and lock your Tesla dashboard to ensure that no one else is able to access your private information.
If you would like to use your car as valet parking, or service, choose the 'Valet/Service' option on the dashboard app. Enter the 4-digit valet number on the touchscreen. After you've done this, the alarm functions will be bypassed however, it will block the ability to start your car unless a valid pin is entered. This is a great option for those who need to transfer their vehicle to others, such as taxi drivers and garage mechanics.
