Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter
The technology has improved to keep pace with the growing sophistication of car thieves. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser works with your vehicle's buttons on the steering wheel as well as the centre console and door panels to make an individual pin code sequence that needs to be entered before driving your car.

No Key Fobs or LED Indicators
The Autowatch Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN immobiliser that can protect your vehicle against key-cloning and theft, as well as hacking. It operates silently and is incorporated into your vehicle's CAN network.
The buttons on the steering wheel and on the door panels of your car create a unique, re-usable PIN code (up to 20 presses), which must be entered prior to driving. This is the same system that you use to access your credit card or mobile banking and can be changed at any time. It can be done in seconds with your smartphone and the application you downloaded. Or, if you prefer using your keyfob.
This is an important feature of the system, which thieves will find it difficult to break or understand because it does not require additional electronics like the key fob. This means that there is no way thieves will know what the code is and will have a difficult time finding an escape route to this. It's also unrecognizable by diagnostics since there aren't radio signals being transmitted and cannot be detected by RF scanning technology that has been used to spoof the security systems of the past few years.
It is also weatherproof and can be plugged in to the vehicle's wiring at any time. It won't damage or leave marks on your vehicle, making it an ideal choice for those who are concerned about their cars and want to improve their security.
This is the greatest benefit of all. Because there aren't any signals sent that would make it impossible for thieves to know that they have breached your security device and to attempt to find ways to get around it. It is an excellent security feature for any car owner, particularly since criminals are focusing their attention on the latest vehicles with their advanced technology.
No Radio Signals
As previously mentioned as opposed to other vehicle security devices that require a key fob, or pin code to turn them off The ghost immobiliser operates silently and doesn't emit any radio signals. This is due to it connecting directly to the CAN data bus, meaning that thieves would have a very difficult time trying to locate its presence in your vehicle. The immobiliser won't start your vehicle unless you enter the correct PIN sequence which can only be done via a series of buttons that are pressed in a certain order. This can be easily managed by the application.
This makes it more secure than other immobilisers which use passive systems, where the immobiliser will only shut off the ECU from power when there is a key present and there is an active signal on the board. These systems can be turned off using a tag or keypad or keypad, by entering a pin code on the keypad or by pressing a particular sequence of buttons. However the ghost immobiliser cannot be disabled by this method in the event that you have your car tow-ed or stolen, you will not be capable of driving it back until you enter the correct pin code.
The ghost immobiliser has been made to be resistant to the most sophisticated theft methods, like the cloning technique. This is because thieves could attempt to duplicate your key fob, or even hack into your vehicle's ECU and bypass its security. The CAN immobiliser prevents this by creating an individual pin code each ghost vehicle immobiliser when you start your vehicle. This means that keys that are duplicated or overridden won't work.
Additionally, the CAN immobiliser provides excellent protection against signal boosters that is utilized by thieves to overcome the standard factory-fitted immobilisers. This makes it one of the most efficient and reliable immobilisers that we install at Progressive Parts. It is accepted by insurance companies and is well-liked by customers who want to hand over their car for valet parking. It also has a "Service Mode' that permits your vehicle to be driven temporarily without the need for a PIN code that can come in handy when you have guests or valet drivers who wish to drive your car.
No Circuit Cuts
In recent years, vehicle theft has increased as organised criminals use sophisticated diagnostic tools to detect security systems. The Ghost is designed to counter this by not using circuit cuts, it is undetectable by any diagnostics, and it operates completely silently on the vehicles CAN data circuit. It connects to the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) and a unique PIN code is entered which has to be used before the engine can begin. This means that a thief cannot simply change a key or replace the ECU in order to take your vehicle. They'll need to enter the correct pin code prior to entering.
The system features an option for service that allows your vehicle to be started and driven without needing your unique PIN.
