No cloning or hacking

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is one of the most advanced immobilisers on the market. It safeguards your vehicle from hacking and key cloning, making it nearly impossible to steal. The only way that a burglar could steal your car is by physically towing it away. Even then, they won't be able to start the engine.

This is because unlike other immobilisers which only stop your vehicle from starting if don't have the fob, the innovative system actually cuts off the engine control unit to stop the vehicle from being started. It operates by sending a signal to buttons on your steering wheel or door panel, or on your central console that can only be disarmed by entering the correct pin code configuration It is this feature that makes the Ghost impossible to break.

Its sleek and discreet design means that it fits into your vehicle seamlessly without additional keys or LEDs It operates on its own, independent of your factory alarm or tracker. It is also a CAN bus immobiliser meaning that it sits within the control area network of your vehicle and does not interfere with any other devices such as your vehicle's built in key fob or alarm.

In contrast to other systems that depend on codes grabbing or RF scanning this technology is undetectable to thieves as it only sends an unobtrusive sequence of pin codes via the buttons that are already present on your vehicle's steering wheel and door panels as well as the central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary device that defends your vehicle against keyless entry and smart key theft. It does this by creating an individual, unique pin code that needs to be entered to deactivate it.

With the increasing number of keyless entry cars on the road the thieves are becoming more sophisticated and using cloning equipment that can be bought via classifieds or online for less than PS15. The cloned key fob could be used to gain access to the vehicle. A standard immobiliser for vehicles only stops the engine from running only if you have the original key fob. This is not enough security and makes it easy for criminals to spoof or jam signals to gain access to the vehicle.

Valet mode

A standard immobiliser fitted to your vehicle is an electronic chip which sends a signal when you press the key fob button. The system will then look for the particular code you have that was sent from the key to start the car. If the proper signal isn't detected, it will cut off the signal and prevent the engine from starting. This is the 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 enhance the signal of your key fob.

Ghost immobilisers do more than simply stop this. The system, which is located on the CAN Bus of your Mercedes is programmed with a unique PIN code that needs to be entered in order to start the vehicle. The sequence is then encrypted in your app, and only anyone else will be able to access it without having the same pin as you.

The system will also stop signal jamming, cloning and hacking (which thieves can employ to bypass the immobiliser in your car). This means that if someone does manage to get your car keys or your key fob, they will not be able to start your car, even if they are parked within the distance of a few feet. The only way to get your car away would be to physically take it away on the flatbed of a lorry which is highly unlikely.

Valet mode is a standard feature with your ghost immobiliser. When activated the glove box as well as trunk of your car will be locked. This means that anyone trying to steal your car will not have anything valuable to take. It will also restrict the speed of your Tesla to ensure that it cannot be driven at over 70mph and disables ludicrous mode. It will also conceal your work and home addresses as well as make your driver profiles secure, and lock your Tesla dashboard so that no one else is able to access your private data.

If you would like to utilize your vehicle for valet parking or service purposes, simply select the 'Valet/Service' feature in the dashboard app and then enter your 4-digit valet number on the touchscreen. The alarm won't work, however the car won't start unless you enter a valid pin. This is ideal for those who have to hand their vehicle to other people like taxi drivers or garage mechanics.

Many people choose to fit an immobiliser that ghosts because they feel that standard security is not enough to protect their pride and joy from being taken. Physical deterrents, such as wheel clamps and steering wheel locks are excellent alternatives, but they are not considered "theft-proof" by thieves because they are easily beaten with the appropriate tools.
