Our Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is a discreet and effective aftermarket solution to guard against key-cloning & car theft.

This makes it almost impossible to identify and is not affected by jamming devices or spoofing devices as with other systems.
The installation of the Ghost unit is a highly-specialized procedure and should only be carried out by an approved installer. The unit is carefully integrated into your vehicle's network of CAN buses and ensures that it is directly connected to the ECU. This allows the Ghost to be installed without having to alter the factory settings and guarantees that it is not hacked by a criminal using signal boosters or other techniques.

Press the service button 5 times in 2 seconds, but ensure you don't hold it down for too long. The system will blink twice to signal that Transport Mode has been activated. This feature is ideal for classic, sports and prestige vehicles that need to have their security system temporarily disabled during transportation or maintenance.
After Transport Mode has been activated the immobiliser will be disabled and cannot be reactivated by entering your PIN again. This feature is ideal for those who want to store their vehicles during the winter months to protect theft or to avoid having to pay higher insurance rates.
No LED indicators or key-fobs to reveal its location
The Ghost immobiliser is a discrete device that protects your pride and joy from car thieves by using buttons on your dashboard or steering wheel to input an unobtrusive pin code prior the start of the engine. It can be linked to a phone application to arm/disarm remotely. It blocks signal relays, ECU swapping, and key copying. It's easy to install and can be incorporated to a variety of vehicles. It is also very stealthy and can be concealed in difficult-to-access places, such as behind the dashboard or within the trim on the steering wheel.

It works by communicating directly with the vehicle's CAN data network, making it highly resistant to detection. It doesn't emit radio signals, which makes it not detected by RF scanners, or signal jammers.
It's designed to be tamper-proof and weatherproof, which means it can withstand extreme temperatures. It is also impossible to alter by cutting wires, or dismantling it. It's also unnoticeable by organised gangs of thieves who employ diagnostics reading equipment to identify security systems. It is not affected by diagnostic equipment that checks the CAN data for the presence or absence of security systems.
No circuit cuts
The ghost device doesn't have any LED indicators or key fobs that would identify its location. It is hidden under the steering wheel or dashboard of your vehicle and uses buttons to generate a unique PIN sequence that must be entered in order to start the engine. This means that even if the criminal does have your keys they are unable to drive the vehicle away because they wouldn't know the correct PIN code sequence. The device also does not transmit radio signals meaning that organised criminal gangs that use diagnostics reading devices will be unable to recognize the device.
This innovative immobiliser is also TASSA approved and can reduce your insurance costs, particularly for vehicles that have been customized by their owners. It also wards off key cloning theft and ECU swapping. This means that the only way the thief can steal your joy and pride is to remove it.

If you have forgotten your PIN code, our engineers have provided a reset emergency for the device that lets you enter "service mode". This will allow the dealer or technician to temporarily start and drive your car so that they can carry out maintenance work, MOTs, or valet parking without entering the PIN code again. Once the technician has finished their task or you have removed your vehicle, simply enter the PIN code and the device will go out of service mode based on speed and time.
