Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me
Modern thieves can rob a car in less than a minute. They use the vehicle's OBD port to hack into the ECU & then duplicate a new key, all via a laptop hidden in the car.
An Autowatch Ghost immobiliser blocks this by transferring a sequence of pin codes via the buttons on your vehicle (steering wheel and central console). It is totally undetectable to anyone inside your car.
No key fobs, or LED indicators to indicate its location
The ghost immobiliser is the best method to protect against keyless entry theft and key copying. This device safeguards your vehicle from these types of attacks by blocking the engine after a proper pin code is entered. This is a great method to safeguard your vehicle. Insurance companies for cars consider it a security feature that could lower the cost of insurance.
The ghost connects to the CAN data network in your vehicle. Once installed by Car Theft Solutions, it will only work if you enter your personal override code as well as a specific button combination. The engine will not begin in the event that you attempt to start your vehicle without having the code. The criminal will then realize that they've been caught and is likely to abandon the vehicle and run off.
One of the major advantages of this system is that it doesn't transmit any signals like the tracker, which means that thieves are unable to utilize RF signal receivers in order to pinpoint the location of your Ghost unit. It also does not transmit any IR (infrared) signals, like the usual remote control key fobs or trackers do, which makes it difficult to deceive or hack.
The Ghost also has valet-mode which can be activated when you are transferring your vehicle over to valet to park or service. This will turn off the immobiliser CAN for 30mph and allow you to drive just as normal by using your key fob. When the vehicle is set up, the Ghost will return to full functionality.

The only way a thief could steal your vehicle is physically towing it away & even then they wouldn't be in a position to start the engine.
This is due to the fact that unlike other immobilisers which simply stop your vehicle from starting if you do not have a fob, the clever system actually shuts off the engine control unit to prevent the vehicle from starting. It does this by sending a signal to buttons on your steering wheel or door panel, or on your central console that can only be deactivated by entering the correct pin code It is this feature that makes the Ghost impossible to break.
Its sleek and discrete design allows it to seamlessly into your vehicle without the necessity of additional keys or LED indicators. It operates independently of your factory tracker or alarm. It is a CAN-bus immobiliser, meaning that it sits in the control network of your vehicle and doesn't interfere with existing devices like your car's key fob or alarm.
Contrary to other systems that depend on code grabbing or RF scanning the Ghost's unique technology is indestructible to thieves because it only transmits an unobtrusive sequence of pin codes via existing buttons on your vehicles steering wheel and door panels as well as the central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary device that defends your vehicle from keyless entry and smart key theft by generating an individual, unique pin code which must be entered to disarm it.

This is not enough security and it's not difficult for criminals to jam or fake signals to unlock the car.
Valet mode
A standard immobiliser fitted to your vehicle uses an electronic chip that sends the signal when you hit your key fob button, the system will then search for that specific code that is sent by the key to start the vehicle. If the proper signal isn't received, it will cut off and stop the engine from getting started. This is the basic principle behind all immobilisers that are sold on the market and is a crucial security measure to ensure that your vehicle can't be stolen even if someone else has your keys or a device that could increase the signal from your key fob.
However, a ghost immobiliser doesn't only stop that, it goes much further. The system, which sits on the CAN bus of your Mercedes, is programmed with a unique PIN push sequence that must be entered to start the vehicle. The sequence is then encrypted in your app, and only one else can access it without the same unique pin that you have.
The system will also stop cloning, hacking and signal jamming (which could be used by thieves to bypass the immobiliser on your vehicle). This means that if a thief does somehow get hold of your car keys or key fob, they won't be capable of starting your vehicle, even if they are parked within only a few feet of it. They might only steal your car on a flatbed truck and that's highly unlikely.
Valet mode is a useful feature that comes with your ghost immobiliser. When it is activated the glove box and trunk of your vehicle will be locked. This means that anyone trying to steal your car will not have anything personal to steal. It also limits the speed of your Tesla so that it can't be driven at over 70mph, and it will also disable the ridiculous mode. It will also block your driver profiles and hide your home / work addresses so that nobody else has access to your personal data on your Tesla dashboard.
If you want to use your car for valet parking, or for service, select the 'Valet/Service' mode on the dashboard app. Enter your 4-digit valet code on the touchscreen. The alarm will cease to work, but the car won't start until you have entered a valid pin. This is a great option for those who have to hand over their vehicle to others, such as taxi drivers and garage mechanics.
