Ghost Immobiliser Tracker

The Autowatch Ghost is a discrete immobiliser that blocks you from getting your car started without entering a pin code. It safeguards your vehicle from cloning, hacking, and theft of relays.

It prevents the engine from starting unless you enter a PIN code (up to 20 numbers) by pressing the buttons of your vehicle.

Theft Prevention

The use of ghost immobiliser trackers makes it much more difficult for thieves steal your vehicle. The device is connected to your car's CAN data network and a personalised code is programmed into it. This code is entered by using the buttons on the dashboard and steering wheel and is only known to you. If someone attempts to start your vehicle it will be blocked from doing so because only you know the PIN. The system is discrete and inaccessible, allowing it to work in the background of your vehicle without affecting your driving experience.

The device is immune to relay attacks, the UK's fastest-growing method for theft. This involves thieves working in teams of two or more. One thief will be near your vehicle, while another typically in a nearby home or along the roadside using an electronic device to receive the key fob signal and send it to their relay. The Ghost II immobiliser prevents the criminal from starting your car by blocking the signal from your fob.

This prevents the thief adding an additional ECU or key to bypass the system to start your car. This is due to the fact that it operates silently and doesn't emit the distinctive click that traditional immobiliser relays make. It also stops circuit cuts, which are an extremely common method used by professional thieves to mess with your car and make it easier to get it stolen.

If a thief does successfully tamper with your vehicle, the GPS tracking will alert you to their location and send you an SMS of their movements. This will permit you to call the police to report them and potentially return your vehicle.
