Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser Fitter
Car thieves are getting more sophisticated and smarter, therefore technology has to change to keep up. Autowatch Ghost immobiliser works with your vehicle's buttons on the steering wheel as well as the centre console and door panels to make an individual pin code sequence that needs to be entered prior to driving your car.
The device isn't able to be detected by thieves, makes use of CAN data and has no circuit breaks, making it a safe and simple-to-install system. RCA Cheadle are an approved fitter of Ghost immobilisers as well as a member of TASSA.
No key fobs or LED indicators
Autowatch Ghost is an immobiliser based on CAN that protects your vehicle from key-cloning and theft. It is integrated into your car's CAN data network. It is silently operated, so that it is not detected and cannot be disabled through simple wire cutting.
The buttons on the steering wheel and on the door panels of your vehicle generate a unique, re-usable PIN code (up to 20 presses), which must be entered prior to driving. It is the same system that you use to access mobile banking or your credit card. You can change it at any time. This can be done in just seconds from your smartphone with the app downloaded or, if you prefer, you can use your key fob.
This is a key feature of the system that thieves will struggle to break or figure out since it doesn't require any additional electronic devices like the key fob. This means that there is no way the thief would know the code and will have a difficult time finding an escape route to this. ghost immobiliser near me is also unrecognizable by diagnostics since no radio signals are being transmitted and it is not detected by RF scanners that were used to fake security systems in the past.
It's also weatherproof and fits into the form of a small waterproof device that can be connected into the wiring harness of your vehicle at any time in your vehicle. It won't damage or leave marks on your vehicle which makes it an ideal choice for those who are concerned about their cars and wish to increase their security.
The most appealing aspect is that there aren't any signals sent. This means that thieves can't tell whether they have hacked the security device or attempt to evade it. It's an excellent security feature for any car owner, particularly since criminals are increasingly targeting the latest cars with their sophisticated technology.
No Radio Signals
As mentioned, unlike other vehicle security devices that require an ID card or special pin code to turn off, the ghost immobiliser works in a silent manner and doesn't emit any radio signals. It connects directly to the CAN data bus, which means that a thief would have a very difficult time trying to detect its presence in your vehicle. The immobiliser won't be able to start your vehicle until you enter the correct PIN sequence which can only be accomplished by pressing a few buttons that are pressed in a particular order. This can be easily controlled via the application.
This makes it much safer than immobilisers that use an active system. In these systems the immobiliser can only disconnect the ECU when the key is connected to an active signal. These systems can be disabled using a tag or keypad, by entering a pin number into the keypad, or pressing a particular sequence of buttons. However the ghost immobiliser can't be disabled by this method in the event that you have your vehicle towed or stolen, you'll not be able to drive it back until you enter the correct pin code.
The ghost immobiliser has been designed to be resistant to the most sophisticated theft techniques, like cloning. This is due to the fact that thieves might attempt to duplicate your key fob, or even hack your vehicle's ECU to thwart the security. The CAN immobiliser stops this by generating an unique pin code each when you start your vehicle. This means that duplicate keys or systems for overriding won't work.
The CAN immobiliser also provides an excellent defense against signal boosters, which are commonly used by thieves to circumvent standard factory-fitted security systems. This means it is one of the most reliable and efficient immobilisers that we fit at Progressive Parts. It is endorsed by insurance companies and is popular with customers who want to hand over their car for valet parking. It has an "Service Mode" that lets you drive your car for a short period of time without the need for a PIN code. This is useful if your valet drivers or guests are able to drive your vehicle.
No Circuit Cuts
Car theft in recent years has become increasingly common, with organised thieves employing sophisticated diagnostic devices to identify fitted security systems. The Ghost is specifically designed to serve this purpose. It isn't detected by any diagnostic tools, and it works silently with the vehicle's CAN data circuit. It connects to the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit) and a unique pin code is entered which has to be entered before the engine can start. The criminal won't be able to steal your vehicle by simply replacing the ECU or adding a new key. They must first enter the correct PIN code.
The system also has the option of a service valet mode which will allow your vehicle to start and drive without having to enter your unique PIN. This is ideal the time that your vehicle needs its maintenance, or if you have to leave it with a valet service or mechanic. You can also turn the switch on and off at will so that nobody else will be in a position to start your vehicle even if you're not there.

The Autowatch Ghost is a subtle device of the next generation is connected to the CAN data network in your vehicle. It also has a PIN number you've set with our team. The PIN code is entered by pressing buttons on the dashboard and steering wheel to turn off your vehicle's engine. It's a tiny weatherproof device that is unable to be detected using traditional methods. There are no LED indicators, and it's completely hidden during the installation and fitting. The Ghost is inaccessible to advanced, high-end RF scanning and code-grabbing technology and is also a fully reversible device that can be installed or removed at any time.
No RF Scanning
A standard immobiliser is designed to stop your car from being driven when you don't have appropriate key fob or code to turn it on. It does this by sending a signal to the ECU that is recognised by the engine control unit and closes down any component in the system that are compromised.
Modern thieves are looking to stay one step ahead of car manufacturers and have become more adept at using technology like key cloning, hacking (relay attacks) and even key theft itself. The thieves often resort to breaking into your home and sifting through your letterbox, stealing the keys to your car from your purse or even from the ignition.
The Ghost is the first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser on the market that shields you from all of these dangers. It connects to the CAN bus, operates silently with no radio signals and cannot be detected by RF scanners that are used by organised criminals. It's TASSA tested and endorsed by insurance companies, so you can rest assured that it's safe to use and will not impact your warranty.
As opposed to a factory-fitted immobiliser Ghost II doesn't come with an indicator to indicate status, which means it's inaccessible to diagnostic tools. It also functions independently of any other immobiliser, alarm or tracker you might have installed, making it an effective, standalone solution that isn't able to be disabled.
It's also easy to use - just enter your pin code, and the car will begin. The immobiliser will also have a service valet mode which can be activated by pressing buttons on the steering wheel or on the door panels. This is useful if you need to take your car to the garage or leave it with a valet parking company. You can change the pin code as often as you wish, too to ensure that your vehicle is secure at all times.
