No key-fobs or LED indications to give away its location
The Ghost immobiliser is a discrete device that guards your pride and joy from thieves who steal cars by using buttons on the dashboard or steering wheel to input an unobtrusive pin code prior to the start of the engine. It protects against signal relay attacks, ECU swapping and key cloning. It can also be linked to a mobile application that allows remote arming and disarming. It's simple to install and can be installed in a variety of vehicles. It's also extremely stealthy and can be hidden in a hard-to reach location such as behind the dashboard or within the trim of the steering wheel.
It's a great option for high-performance cars because it can disable the ignition of the vehicle when an incorrect pin code is entered, preventing thieves from taking away your joy and pride. The device can also send an alert to your smartphone in the event that you've left your car without a key in public areas, providing you with peace of mind when you're away from your vehicle.
In contrast to other immobilisers, the Ghost doesn't require any extra fobs or LED indicators, and can be hidden easily in a difficult-to-find place inside your vehicle. It is extremely resistant to detection because it directly communicates with the CAN data network in your vehicle. It doesn't emit radio signals so it is not detected by signal jammers or RF scanners.
It is designed to be tamper-proof and weatherproof. It can also stand up to extreme temperatures. It's also impossible to tamper with by cutting the wires or dismantling the device. It's also unnoticeable by organised gangs of thieves who use diagnostics reading equipment to identify security systems.

No circuit cuts
Without LEDs or key fobs to give away its location, the ghost device is hidden within your car, beneath the dashboard or on the steering wheel and makes use of buttons in your car to make an individual PIN code sequence which must be entered before the engine can be started. This means that even if a criminal does have your keys they can't drive the car away since they do not be aware of the correct PIN sequence. The device doesn't transmit radio signals, meaning that organized gangs of thieves using diagnostics devices will be unable to recognize the device.
This advanced immobiliser, that is also TASSA-approved, will assist you in reducing your insurance costs. This is particularly applicable to modified vehicles that their owners have customised. It also wards off key cloning theft and ECU swapping, which means that the only way for a thieves can take your pride and joy is to remove it.
The system is completely quiet as it does not utilize the buttons that are found on the dashboard or in the factory keys. It communicates with the ECU using the CAN data circuit, which is completely silent and doesn't give any indication that it's been installed. This means that a thief will not be able to install new key fobs or replace the ECU in order to cause your vehicle to start, which negates any other theft methods used in recent years such as key cloning RFID scanning, and code taking.
If you forget your PIN code, our engineers have provided you with a reset emergency for the device that allows you to enter "service mode". This allows the technician or dealer to temporarily start and drive your vehicle which allows them to complete maintenance work, MOTs or valet parking without entering the PIN code once more. When the technician is finished their work or you have taken possession of your vehicle, just enter the PIN code and the device will be out of service mode based on speed and time.
No radio signals
The Ghost immobiliser, unlike many other security systems for cars, does not rely on alarm systems or key fobs to stop vehicles from getting started. Instead it communicates with vehicle's ECU and CAN data circuit to prevent the engine from starting. This makes it a quiet solution that is not affected by key cloning techniques or RF scanning techniques used by thieves to bypass other security devices. It can be used in conjunction with tracking devices to improve the safety of your vehicle. You will also receive alerts if there is a chance to steal or alter the security of your vehicle.
