Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me
Modern day thieves can steal vehicles within 1 minute. They use the OBD port of the vehicle to hack into the ECU and then duplicate keys, all using a laptop hidden in the vehicle.
An Autowatch Ghost immobiliser blocks this by sending a sequence of pin codes through buttons on your vehicle (steering wheel & central console). It is totally undetectable to anyone in your vehicle.
No key fobs or LED indications to give away its location
If you're looking for a method to stop keyless entry theft or key cloning then look at the ghost immobiliser. This device safeguards your vehicle from these kinds of attacks by preventing the engine from running after the valid pin code has been entered. This is a reliable method to safeguard your vehicle. Even car insurance companies consider it a security feature that could lower the cost of a policy.

The thief will then realise that they've been caught and will likely to abandon the vehicle and flee.
One of the main advantages of this system is that it does not transmit any signals, like the tracker, which means that thieves are unable to make use of RF signal receivers to pinpoint the location of your Ghost unit.

The key fob that is cloned can be used to gain access to the vehicle. The standard immobiliser can only stop the vehicle from starting if the person who stole it has the original key fob. This is not enough security and it's not difficult for criminals to jam or fake signals to unlock your car.
Valet mode
Standard immobilisers installed to your car use an electronic chip that sends a signal. The system will then search for the code sent by the key to start the car. If the correct signal cannot be detected the system will shut off the power and stop the vehicle from beginning.

This is then locked on your application and nobody is able to access it until they have the exact pin number that you have.
The system will also prevent cloning, hacking and signal jamming (which could be used by thieves to bypass the immobiliser on your vehicle). If a thief manages to get their hands on the keys to your car or fob, they won't be able to start your vehicle even if it's located nearby. ghost immobiliser price might only steal your car off a flatbed truck which is extremely unlikely.

A ghost immobiliser is not accessible to thieves since it is integrated into the vehicle and, if activated, would disable the starter motor or the fuel system.
