If your vehicle is something you love, it's only natural to want to protect it with latest technology. Autowatch Ghost is the best way to accomplish this. An immobiliser is a small device that stops your car from starting if you don't input the correct passcode. This could be a PIN or a series of inputs from the vehicle (for instance the indicator stalk buttons). The device is connected to the car's computer system and therefore cannot be identified by diagnostic equipment. It doesn't emit radio signals or pulses that can be detected by a smartphone app or tracking device. The Ghost can be used by mechanics and valet companies to maintain vehicles without using the PIN code. However, thieves can still clone keys and swap ECUs to get their hands on your vehicle. The Ghost immobiliser comes with the option of a service mode that can be activated by pressing the button repeatedly for a specific time period. The code needed to enter this is an undetermined combination of your vehicle's inputs (for instance, the indicator stalk buttons or some other buttons hidden). This means that your car is protected even when thieves use the latest technology. A Ghost immobiliser can also be used to protect your vehicle from a new form of theft that involves hacking the OBD port. The thief can connect a laptop to trick the vehicle's systems into thinking a key is present, allowing it to start. However, an immobiliser like the Ghost stops this from happening by connecting to the CAN data circuit and prevents the thief from altering your car. Another benefit of a Ghost immobiliser is that it can be removed and transferred to a different vehicle, should you choose to upgrade your vehicle over the lifetime of ownership. The only requirement is the new vehicle has to be compatible with Ghost's software and datapack. Additionally, the installation company that you use must be TASSA registered and have been cleared by their CRB checks. Remote control Ghost immobilisers provide an additional layer of security to your car. It uses the onboard CAN network to prevent your car from starting without a specific code or sequence. It also aids in combating key hacking, cloning and preventing thieves from getting close to your vehicle. The Autowatch ghost is the first aftermarket CAN immobiliser that can provide the best in vehicle security. It is connected to the CAN data network of the vehicle onboard and is virtually unnoticeable. The device is hidden in the wiring and operates quietly. It does not emit radio signals to notify you of its presence. It utilizes the buttons on your dashboard or steering wheel to create a unique PIN code sequence which you can modify at anytime, and it's also possible to create an emergency code if needed. It's also completely undetectable, with no lights or sounds that could indicate its presence. Additionally, it doesn't require any additional wiring to function, so it can be installed on vehicles without the requirement for additional components or modules. It's also extremely low-maintenance, and is designed to be as easy to use as it can be so that you can always ensure that your vehicle is secure. An aftermarket ghost immobiliser is a great option for those looking to secure their vehicle from theft, as it can be used as an alternative to a standard factory-fitted immobiliser. This is because factory-fitted immobilisers rely upon the transponder integrated into your car key to transmit the correct code to the ECU when you press the button to start your car. However, criminals may use signal booster technology to increase the transmission of the transponder so that they can steal your vehicle. A ghost immobiliser can prevent this by preventing the engine from running if the incorrect code is entered. Ghost immobilisers are the next step in vehicle security. They are a revolutionary method to prevent thieves from stealing your vehicle, since they cannot drive it until they enter the PIN code you've set. They are also ideal for those who have spent many dollars and time customising their vehicle, since they can stop thieves from entering your vehicle. |
