Car Ghost Immobiliser
Ghost Immobiliser A sophisticated system that stops your vehicle from starting if there is no unique code input through existing buttons. The device is invisible for thieves and operates quietly.
It can also help deter newer methods such as hotwiring and theft of relays. You could also see a decrease in your insurance premium.
No Radio Frequencies
A car ghost immobiliser operates differently to an ordinary immobiliser because there is no radio frequency transmitted to prevent it from being hacked by thieves using a simple and readily available device for cloning. Ghost immobilisers stop your car from starting even if the thief has cloned or taken your key.
Ghost immobilisers can also be used to stop relay attacks. The signal from your key fob is amplified to fool the system into allowing your car to start. The Ghost can recognise this and won't start your car, and will require you to enter the PIN code. This is a great way to stop car thieves who have easy-to-use and affordable tools to replicate your vehicle.
The Ghost can also be installed discreetly (without damaging your vehicle) and will only function after the correct pin sequence has been entered. The Ghost will only be discovered by the owner who set it up, meaning that no one will be able to access your vehicle until they know the pin sequence. Certain systems let owners create valet or service mode, which allows them to temporarily allow someone else to drive the vehicle without revealing their pin code, safeguarding them from thieves who are looking for opportunities.
The Ghost is not just easy to use and easy to dearm, it can also be linked to a car tracker, so that you can track your vehicle. Certain insurance companies will offer discounts on your car insurance if it has a Ghost installed, which is great news for the security of your car and its contents.
The Ghost immobiliser, though not Thatcham approved is an aftermarket product that has been independently evaluated and found to function. Ask the seller of a secondhand vehicle with the Ghost installed if they can transfer it to your car. This will make your new vehicle more secure than in the case that the previous owner hadn't transferred it.
No Circuit Cuts
The absence of circuit breaks means that even when the vehicle is stolen, thieves will not be able to get it started. The thieves must know the exact buttons to unlock the vehicle, and they will not be able to do that without knowing the sequences. This will discourage them and ensure that they do not attempt to steal the car in the first place since they may not be able to drive away with the car.
If you have an GPS tracker installed in your Ghost can also function as an anti-theft device since it can send an alert to the tracker which will trigger a siren and alert the tracker of attempts to steal. This feature can be activated at any moment via your online dashboard.
When you connect your Ghost to your CAN data network, it will identify the vehicle and the owner of the vehicle through the unique pin code that was created at the time of installation. This enables the device to communicate with your vehicle's ECU and disable the engine. This means that only the vehicle owner, or someone with the PIN code, is able to start the engine.
Since the pin code is constructed from existing buttons that are easily accessible to the driver (such as cruise control and stereo mute) it is mathematically inaccessible to be guessed by potential thieves. Your engineer will provide you with the Pin Code Override Card that is similar to a lottery scratch-off ticket. It just needs to be scratched to reveal the code.
Your Ghost isn't detectable by these methods since it does not use circuit breaks or radio frequencies. This makes it unaffected by modern techniques employed by organised groups of thieves that specialize in code-grabbing and RF scanning. It is also a life-time product, and it can be removed from your vehicle when you decide to sell it, meaning that you will not lose any of the protection you've invested in.
