No Key Fobs or LED Indications
Autowatch Ghost is an immobiliser based on CAN that safeguards your vehicle from key-cloning and theft. It is silently operated and integrated into the CAN network of your car.
It creates a unique, alterable PIN code sequence (up to 20 presses) using the buttons on your vehicle’s door panels and steering wheel which must be entered prior to being able to drive. This is the same system that you use to access your mobile banking or credit card and can be altered at any time. It can be done in a matter of seconds using your smartphone and the application you downloaded. Or, if you prefer to use your keyfob.
This is a crucial feature of the system that thieves will find difficult to crack or work out since it doesn’t require any additional electronic devices like the key fob. As such, it is impossible that the thief would know what the code is and will be unable to find an escape route to this. It’s also inaccessible to diagnostics as there are no radio signals being transmitted and can’t be detected by RF scanning technology that has been used to deceive security systems in recent years.
It’s also weatherproof and can be plugged into a small, waterproof device that is plugged into the vehicle’s wiring harness at any point within your vehicle. It does not cause any damage or marks to your car – making it an attractive option for people who care about their vehicles and want to improve their security.
The best part is that there are no signals sent. This means that thieves can’t tell if they have cracked the security device, or try to get around it. It’s an excellent security feature for any car owner, but especially since criminals are focusing their attention on the latest vehicles with their sophisticated technology.
No Radio Signals
As mentioned above as opposed to other vehicle security devices that require a key fob or pin code, to disable them, the ghost immobiliser operates in a silent manner and doesn’t emit radio signals. It is directly connected to the CAN bus, therefore thieves will have a hard time finding its presence. 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 – and this is easily managed via the application.
This makes it more secure than immobilisers that use a passive system. In these systems the immobiliser can only disconnect the ECU in the event that the key is present with an active signal. The systems can be turned off by pressing the receiver with tags, entering a pin number into an electronic keypad, or pressing a particular sequence of buttons on a screen. The ghost immobiliser can’t be disabled in this manner. If your car is stolen or tow-away it will not be able to return it until the pin code is entered.
The ghost immobiliser reviews (read this post from 0522565551 Ussoft) immobiliser has been designed to be resistant to the most sophisticated theft methods such as copying. This is because thieves can attempt to duplicate your key fob or even hack into your vehicle’s ECU and bypass its security. The CAN immobiliser blocks this by creating an individual pin code each when you start your car. This means that any keys that are duplicated or overridden will not work.
The CAN immobiliser also provides excellent protection against signal boosters, which are used by thieves to evade security systems that are fitted by the factory. It is therefore one of the most efficient and reliable immobilisers that we install at Progressive Parts. It is endorsed by insurance companies and is well-liked by customers who want to surrender their vehicle for valet parking.

No Circuit Cuts
In recent years, car theft has increased due to organised criminals employ sophisticated diagnostic tools to detect security systems. The Ghost is designed to counter this by avoiding circuit cuts, it is completely undetectable by any diagnostics and works silently on the vehicles CAN data circuit. It connects to the vehicle’s ECU (Engine Control Unit) and a unique PIN code is entered that must be used before the engine can begin. The criminal won’t be able to take your vehicle by simply replacing the ECU or putting in a new key. They must first enter the correct PIN code.
The system also comes with a service valet mode that allows your car to start and drive without the need for your personal PIN. This is ideal for when your vehicle is receiving its service, or if you need to leave the vehicle with a valet business or mechanic. You can also turn the switch on and off at any time to ensure that nobody else will be in a position to start your vehicle even if you’re not there.
