Car Ghost Immobiliser

Ghost Immobiliser, an advanced system, prevents your vehicle from starting if there is no unique code input via existing buttons. The device is inaccessible to thieves and is quiet to operate.

It also can help to deter newer methods like relay thefts and hotwiring. It could also lower the cost of insurance.

No Radio Frequencies

Ghost immobilisers differ from a traditional one in that it does not transmit radio frequency, which makes it impossible for thieves to evade the device using a cheap key cloning device. This means that a ghost immobiliser can prevent your car from being activated even if a criminal has successfully copied your key or stolen it.

A ghost immobiliser is also effective against so-called relay attacks. They involve amplifying the signal from your key fob in order to trick the system into allowing your vehicle to start. The Ghost can detect this and will refuse to start your vehicle, and require you to enter your PIN code. This is a great way to combat tech-savvy thieves who have access to affordable and easy-to-use equipment to steal or clone your vehicle.

love it  can be installed in a discreet manner and will not cause damage to your car. It will only work once the correct pin sequence has been entered. The Ghost will only be discovered by the owner who set it up, meaning that no one can use your car until they know your pin sequence. Some systems allow the owner to create a valet or service mode, which permits them to temporarily let another person use their vehicle without having to reveal their pin code. This helps protect the vehicle from thefts that could be triggered by opportunistic means.

In addition to being user-friendly and easy to disarm, the Ghost can be linked up with an auto tracker to make it possible for you to locate your vehicle. Some insurance companies offer discounts on car insurance for vehicles equipped with Ghosts. This is a great benefit as it increases the security of your vehicle.

The Ghost immobiliser, although not Thatcham certified, is an aftermarket item that has been independently evaluated and proved to function. If you're thinking about purchasing a used vehicle that comes with the Ghost immobiliser, inquire with the seller if they are willing to transfer it to the vehicle you are buying. This will ensure that your new vehicle is more secure than if the previous owner had not transferred it.

No Circuit Cuts

Even if your car is stolen, thieves won't be able to unlock it. They will need to know the sequence of buttons utilized to unlock your vehicle and they will not be able to do this if they are not in possession of this knowledge. This will discourage thieves from attempting to steal.

If you have a GPS tracker installed, your Ghost could also serve as an anti-theft device since it can send a signal to the tracker which will sound a siren to alert the tracker of attempts to steal. This feature can be activated at any time via your online dashboard.

When you connect your Ghost to your CAN data network it will identify the vehicle and its owner through the unique pin code that is programmed at the time of installation. This allows the device to communicate with your car's ECU and immobilise the engine. This means that the engine can only be started if it is authorized by the owner of the vehicle or someone with a valid PIN.

Because the pin code was made from buttons that are within easy reach of the driver (such as cruise control and stereo mute) it is mathematically inaccessible to be guessed by potential thieves. Your engineer will also provide you with an emergency Pin Code override card which is similar to scratch-off lottery tickets and only requires scratching off to reveal the code and the directions.

Your Ghost is not detectable by these methods, as it doesn't use radio frequencies or circuit breaks. It is therefore unaffected by the new techniques employed by organised gangs who are experts in the use of RF scanning technology as well as code-grabbing. It's also a lifetime product that can easily be removed from your vehicle after you sell it, meaning you won't lose any of the security that you have put into.

As a result, it is unaffected by signal interception and cannot be activated with stolen or compromised remotes. It is also tamper-proof and has no external wiring, making it difficult to take off.

It protects you from key-long hacking keys, key theft and key-long by preventing your engine from starting until a unique PIN has been entered. This is accomplished by using buttons that are already on the vehicle, such as those on the steering wheel or doors.

This is the only way for you to start your engine and it will only work if you have entered the correct pin code. This makes it very difficult for thieves to take your vehicle and is easy to use. If you're worried about losing the pin code, the installer will provide you with an emergency override driver fob that lets you use your car in the same way as you normally would.

It is also easy to deactivate the device in a service valet mode to allow your car to be removed for cleaning, servicing or for an MOT without being activated.

This means that even if the vehicle is stolen or cloned the criminal won't be in a position to start your car and will be caught in the act.
