Ghost Immobiliser Review

As car theft increases consumers are constantly searching for a way to prevent it. Ghost immobilisers are a revolutionary new device that does just that.

It's the first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser that shields your vehicle from hacking, key cloning or keyless entry, and stops thieves driving away with your vehicle.

No Faraday Bags and Radio Signals

In contrast to other physical anti-theft devices like wheel locks for steering wheels and wheel clamps, ghost immobilisers have been made to be concealed and unnoticeable. Integrated into the vehicle's buttons they protect against key cloning, car hacking, ECU swapping, and even key theft. Ghost immobilisers stop the engine from starting until you enter a specific PIN code sequence alongside your key fob. This PIN code is up to 20 presses long and can be altered by the driver via an app or buttons on the vehicle. If you forget your pin or a button breaks or you sell your car, you can use an emergency PIN code that's unique to each device to reset the system.

As an added bonus, ghost immobilisers (http://www.maxtremer.com/bbs/board.php?bo_table=qna_e&wr_id=232068) are undetectable by diagnostic tools. They don't emit radio frequency signals, which means that thieves can't utilize sophisticated RF scanning technology to detect the presence of an immobiliser. They also utilize the CAN data network, which does not require wire cutting after installation and is quieter than other immobilisers.

Although ghost immobilisers may not be Thatcham approved but they are TASSA approved and some insurance companies offer lower rates on insurance for vehicles that have an aftermarket immobiliser. However, they are recognized as an additional layer of security that can deter thieves.

Unlike factory-fitted immobilisers, the Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is designed to work with a range of vehicles including motorhomes, electric cars, vans and ride-on lawnmowers.
