Introduction
The Autowatch Ghost Immobilizer is a unique next-generation device that secures your vehicle without having to cut wires or add back key chains. The device connects to the vehicle’s CAN data network, and the buttons on the dashboard and steering wheel program a custom PIN code on the Ghost immobilizer. A thief cannot only add a new key or replace an ECU as the unit communicates with the ECU on the data bus. The thief cannot hear a revealing click of a traditional immobilizer relay.
Engine Start Lock
The Ghost will prevent the engine from starting unless the unique user-defined PIN code has enter first.
It is undetectable
A modern thief can use tools to detect circuit breaks in modern vehicles. The Ghost has no circuit breakages, so it cannot be found using these methods.
There are no radio frequency signals
Thieves cannot use sophisticated RF scanning and code capture technology to detect what security device your vehicle has when it does not transmit any signal like conventional security systems.
Why is it compulsory to have an Autowatch ghost security system?
Every day more vehicles are stolen without the owner’s keys. Cloning equipment and door pick sets have become a secure purchase on the web. Thieves require very little training, so it is very easy to steal the most modern cars today. Access to such equipment allows thieves to scan and clone the keys of their vehicle. Cars like Audi, BMW, Land Rover, Mercedes, VW and much more make it an excellent decision to protect your vehicle with a Ghost immobilizer.
Benefits of using the CAN data network
The CAN data bus use has several benefits that include a low risk during installation, a low probability of detection and allows placement almost anywhere in the vehicle.
Silent operation
The unit communicates with the ECU on the data bus to immobilize the vehicle, and there is no way for a thief to hear the revealing click of a traditional immobilizer relay.
Stops key cloning and ECU exchange
A car thief cannot add a new key or replace an ECU to avoid the Phantom and start the vehicle. The engine will only start when the correct PIN entered.
Tested for each
car
Because of the nature of the data bus communication, the Ghost has been adjusted and tested for each vehicle we list as compatible. If we list your car, you can be sure that we have thoroughly tested its operation with the Ghost.
Small weatherproof device
The Ghost immobilizer is sealed and so small that it can install and wrapped in the vehicle’s harness anywhere in the vehicle, which makes it almost impossible for a thief to find it.
Get emergency PIN code
If the PIN code is forgotten, a button is broken, or the car is sold, there is a unique and safe reset code for each device.
Service / Valet mode
The service model allows your vehicle to start and drive temporarily without entering the PIN code. The Ghost immobilizer will exit service mode based on speed and time or only by entering the PIN code.
Simple PIN code change process
You can easily change the PIN code. Only you know the PIN code for your vehicle.
Use the original vehicle buttons to enter the PIN code
The buttons on modern vehicles send data throughout the vehicle, allowing us to detect many different keys pressed without additional wiring.
Peace of mind is important
It is tested for each car. As the nature of the data bus communication, ghost security has been adapted and tested for each vehicle we list as compatible. If we mark your vehicle, you can be sure that we have thoroughly tested its operation with the Ghost.
