autowatch ghost 2 immobiliser -known Ghost Immobiliser provides your vehicle with the most advanced security against key cloning, hacking and theft. This TASSA-certified system is not detected by thieves and prevents your vehicle from starting.
This silent device makes use of buttons on your car's steering wheel as well as the doors and the centre console to permit you to create a unique and changeable PIN code sequence up to 20 characters. The code must be entered prior to the car is able to start.
Easy to install
With car crime increasing and cloning equipment readily available it is more crucial than ever to protect your vehicle. Our Autowatch Ghost immobiliser provides a secure, efficient and affordable solution to protect against key cloning and vehicle theft. The unit is virtually invisible to thieves, and functions through buttons on the steering wheel or door panels. This allows customers to create an individual disarm sequence similar to credit card numbers that must be completed before the vehicle can begin or leave. This makes the system nearly impossible to spot and is not affected by spoofing or jamming devices like those used by other systems available.
Installation of the Ghost unit requires a highly skilled installer. The unit is carefully integrated into the CAN bus system of your vehicle which ensures that it is communicating directly with the ECU. The Ghost can be installed without altering factory settings, and it is not possible for thieves to bypass the system using signal boosters.
After the Ghost is fitted the new and improved sequence to disarm must be inputted to turn on your car. Press the service button five times in two seconds, but make sure that you don't hold it for too long. The system will flash twice to show that Transport Mode is active. This feature is ideal for classic, sports and prestige vehicles that require their security system to be temporarily disabled during transportation or during servicing.
Once the Transport Mode is activated your immobiliser will become disabled and you are unable to activate it again by entering the PIN code. This feature is ideal for those who would like to store their vehicles over the winter to prevent theft, or to avoid paying higher insurance rates.
There are no key-fobs, LEDs or other indicators to give away its location
The Ghost immobiliser is a discrete device that shields your car from car thieves by using buttons on your dashboard or steering wheel to input a discreet pin code prior to the start of the engine. autowatch ghost 2 immobiliser can be connected to an app on your phone to arm and disarm remotely. It blocks signal relays, ECU swapping, and key copying. It's easy to install and can be integrated into a wide range of vehicles. It's also extremely discreet and can be hidden in hard-to-reach places like behind the dashboard or within the steering-wheel trim.
It's a great option for high-performance cars because it can disable the ignition system of your vehicle if an incorrect pin code is entered, thus preventing thieves from driving off with your joy and pride. The device can notify smartphones if the vehicle is left unattended in public. This provides peace of mind when you are away from your vehicle.
The Ghost is unique to other immobilisers in that it does not require additional fobs or LED indicators. It can also be easily hidden in a hard-to-find area of your vehicle.

It is designed to be tamper-proof and weatherproof. It also has the ability to withstand extreme temperatures. It's also impossible to tamper by cutting the wires or removing it. It's also unnoticeable by organised gangs of thieves who utilize diagnostics-reading devices to detect security systems. It's also not affected by auto diagnostics equipment that is professional which checks the CAN data system for the presence of a security device.
No circuit cuts
Without any LED indicators or key fobs to reveal its location, the device is hidden inside your car, under the dashboard or steering wheel and uses buttons in your car to make a unique PIN code sequence that must be entered before the engine can be started. This means that even if the person who stole your keys does have them, they can't drive the car away because they wouldn't be able to identify the correct PIN sequence. The device doesn't transmit radio signals, so organized gangs of thieves who use diagnostics reading tools are in a position to not be able to recognize it.
This cutting edge immobiliser is TASSA approved and could help lower the cost of insurance, particularly for vehicles that have been customised by their owners. It also prevents key cloning theft, as well as ECU swapping. This means that the only way for a thieves can take your pride and joy is to take it away.
Since the system doesn't utilize the factory key fobs or the dashboard buttons it is a completely silent device, it communicates with your ECU via the CAN data circuit that operates completely silently and gives no indication that it's fitted. This means a thief cannot swap out the ECU or install new key fobs to allow your car running.
If you've forgotten your PIN code, our engineers have provided you with a reset emergency for the device that lets you enter "service mode". This will allow dealers or technicians to temporarily start and drive your vehicle, allowing them to perform MOTs, maintenance work, or valet parking. After the technician has finished or you have collected the vehicle and returned it to the dealer, enter the PIN to exit service mode.
No radio signals
Unlike many other car security systems the Ghost immobiliser doesn't use an alarm system or key fobs to stop vehicles from getting started. It communicates instead with the vehicle's ECU, CAN data circuit and other circuits to block the engine from starting. It's a quiet solution that isn't affected by key-cloning techniques or RF scanning that thieves use to bypass security devices. It can also be paired with tracking systems to enhance the overall safety of your vehicle and can be alerted to any attempts at tampering or theft.
The Autowatch Ghost is a TASSA-certified device that is insurance approved and provides a superior level of protection against key hacking, copying, and even theft.

A third problem is that certain cars have issues with CAN data connections, which could affect Ghost's capabilities. This could be due to faulty sensors or a damaged OBD port. It is recommended to test the system again prior to using it in the event of any issues with the connection to CAN.
Change the PIN code with ease
The ghost is an excellent device that has taken the market by storm however the process of changing the pin code can be a bit confusing. The device is pre-programmed via the installer once it's fitted however there are occasions when people need to change this setting for different reasons such as they'd prefer a different button to disarm the device and they don't want the installer to know or they simply don't like their current pin number. The good news is the switching to a different pin number is very simple. Follow these simple steps to find out how.
Please note that you must turn on the ignition in your vehicle but do not turn on the engine! This process will take only several minutes. The vehicle will then return to normal operation.
