Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter
The technology has advanced to keep up with the growing sophistication of car thieves. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser works with your vehicles existing buttons on the steering wheel, centre console and door panels to make a unique pin code sequence that must be entered before driving your car.
The device is not detectable by thieves, makes use of CAN data and has no circuit breakers, which makes it a safe and simple-to-install system. RCA Cheadle is an approved Ghost immobiliser installer and a member of TASSA.
No Key Fobs or LED Indicators
Autowatch Ghost is a CAN-based immobiliser that safeguards your vehicle from key-cloning and theft. It is integrated into the car's CAN data network and operates in a quiet manner, ensuring that it is undetectable and cannot be harmed through simple wire cutting.
The buttons on the steering wheel and the door panels of your vehicle generate an individual, reusable PIN code (up to 20 presses) that must be entered prior to driving. This is the same method that you use to access your mobile banking or credit card and can be changed at any time. This can be done in just seconds from your smartphone with the app installed, or if you prefer you could use your key fob.
This is a crucial aspect of the system which thieves will find difficult to break or understand since it doesn't require extra electronics such as the key fob. The thief is unable to decipher the code and will have a difficult finding a way to escape it. 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 fool security systems in recent years.
It is also weatherproof and can be connected to the vehicle's wiring at any point. It will not harm or leave marks on your vehicle and is a great option for those who are worried about their vehicles and want to increase their security.
This is the most important aspect of all - because there aren't any signals sent that would make it impossible for thieves to determine that they have cracked your security device, and seek ways to bypass it. It's an excellent option to protect any car owner, especially because criminals are increasingly targeting the latest cars with their sophisticated technology.
No Radio Signals
As mentioned, unlike other vehicle security devices which require an ID card or special pin code to deactivate, the ghost immobiliser works quietly and does not emit any radio signals. It connects directly to the CAN data bus, meaning that thieves will have a difficult time trying to detect its presence in your vehicle. The immobiliser won't start your car until you enter the correct PIN sequence. This is only possible by pressing a set of buttons in a certain sequence. It is easy to manage via the app.
This makes it a lot more secure than other immobilisers that use passive systems, where the immobiliser is only able to disconnect the ECU from power if the key is present and it has an active signal on the board. Those systems can be disabled by pressing the receiver using a tag, entering an identification number into a keypad or pressing a particular sequence of buttons on a screen. The ghost immobiliser is not able to be disabled this way. If your vehicle is towed away or stolen it will not be able to return it until the pin code is entered.
The ghost immobiliser has also been designed to be resistant to the most sophisticated forms of theft, such as the cloning technique. This is due to the fact that thieves could attempt to duplicate your key fob, or even hack into your vehicle's ECU and bypass its security. However, the CAN immobiliser is specifically designed to block this from happening, since it generates a unique pin number every time you want to start your car, which means that it will not be possible to start your vehicle with any cloned key or overriding system.
The CAN immobiliser provides an excellent defense against signal boosters, which are often used by thieves to evade security systems that are factory-fitted. It is, therefore, one of the most effective and reliable immobilisers we fit at Progressive Parts. This is the reason it is insurance-approved, and it is also a popular choice for customers who need to hand over their car for valet parking or another service. It has a 'Service Mode' that allows your vehicle to be driven on a temporary basis without the need for a PIN that can come in handy if you have guests or valet drivers that want to drive your vehicle.
No Circuit Cuts
In recent years, car theft has become more more common, with organised thieves employing sophisticated diagnostics tools to detect fitted security systems. The Ghost is specifically designed specifically for this purpose. It isn't detected by any diagnostics and works in a silent manner with the CAN data circuit of the vehicle. It connects to the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) and a unique PIN code is inputted which must be used before the engine will start. This means that a burglar cannot simply change a key or replace the ECU in order to take your vehicle. They'll have to enter the correct pin code prior to entering.
The system features the option of allowing your vehicle to be driven and started without needing your unique PIN. This is ideal for situations where you want to leave your vehicle with a mechanic or valet service. You can also switch the switch on and off at any time, so that no one else will be able to start your vehicle, even when you're not there.

The Autowatch Ghost is a subtle device that is the next generation that is connected to the CAN data network inside your vehicle. It is equipped with a PIN code you have established with our team. The code is then entered via buttons on your steering wheel and dashboard to turn off your engine. It's a tiny weatherproof device that can't be detected using traditional methods. There are no LED indicators, and it's completely concealed when it's fitted and installed. The Ghost is undetectable with the help of sophisticated technology that scans RF. It is also reversible and can be installed and removed at anytime.
No RF Scanning
Standard immobilisers are designed to stop your vehicle from starting in the event that you don't have the correct key fob or the right code. It does this by sending an immobiliser signal to the ECU. The engine control unit will then detect the signal and shuts down any compromised components.
Modern thieves are looking to stay one step ahead of automakers and have been able to use techniques like key cloning hacking (relay attacks) and even key theft itself. The thieves often resort to breaking and entering your property and fishing through your mailbox, stealing keys to your car from your purse or even from inside your ignition.
The Ghost is the world's first aftermarket immobiliser for the CAN bus that shields your vehicle from all these dangers. It works in silence and is not able to transmit radio signals and is not able to be detected by scanners with RF. It has been TASSA-verified and approved by insurance providers So you can be sure that it's safe to use and won't impact your warranty.
In contrast to an immobiliser fitted by the factory, Ghost II doesn't come with an indicator to indicate status, which means it is undetectable to any diagnostic tools. It is also independent of any other alarm, immobiliser or tracker you might have installed so it is an effective standalone solution that cannot be disabled.
ghost immobilisers to use, and you only need to enter your pin code and the car will be starting. The immobiliser also has a service valet mode which can be activated by pressing the buttons on your steering wheel or door panels. This is helpful when you need to leave your car with valet services or go to a garage. You can change the pin code as often as you like so that your car is secure at all times.
