The way that the ghost operates is by connecting to your vehicle's CAN data network. Once installed by us at Car Theft Solutions it will only begin when you press the specific sequence of buttons with your personal override code. This means that any attempt to start the vehicle without entering this code will be greeted with a loud alarm, and the engine won't start. The thief will then realise that they've been caught and will likely to abandon the vehicle and escape.
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 use RF signal receivers to determine the location of your Ghost device. It also doesn't send out any IR (infrared) signals, like the standard remote control key fobs or trackers do, which makes it difficult to deceive or hack.
Another advantage of the ghost is that it has an option for valet parking that can be activated when you hand your vehicle over to a valet service or parking. This will turn off the immobiliser on the CAN for 30mph and enables you to use the vehicle in normal mode using your key fob or mobile app. The

No cloning or hacking
The Autowatch Ghost is one of the most advanced immobilisers on the market, it protects your vehicle from key cloning and hacking making it near impossible to steal. The only way a thief could steal your vehicle is physically towing it away. Even then, they wouldn't be able to start the engine.
This is because unlike other immobilisers that simply stop your car from starting if you do not have a fob, the Ghost's clever system actually shuts off the engine control unit to prevent the vehicle from being started. It works by sending a signal to buttons on your steering wheel or door panel, or on your central console that can only be deactivated by entering the correct pin code It is this feature that makes the Ghost impossible to break.
Its sleek and subtle design allows it to be seamlessly into your car without the requirement for additional keys or LED indicators. It functions independently of your factory tracker or alarm. It also functions as a CAN bus immobiliser, which means it sits within your vehicle's control area network and doesn't interfere with any other devices such as your vehicle's built in key fob or alarm.
This unique technology is not visible to thieves and other systems that rely on RF scanning and code grabbing. It only sends a series of pin codes that are silently transmitted through the buttons on your vehicle's steering wheel or door panels, or central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary product that shields your vehicle from keyless entry theft and smart key theft. It does this by generating a unique pin code, which must be entered to disarm the device.
The number of keyless entry vehicles on the road is increasing. Thieves are becoming sophisticated and are using devices for cloning which can be bought through classifieds or online for less than PS15. They can then use this fob that is cloned to gain access to your vehicle. A standard immobiliser for vehicles only prevents the engine from starting only if you have the original key fob. This does not provide enough protection and it is easy for criminals to alter or block signals to unlock the vehicle.
Valet mode
Standard immobilisers installed to your car use an electronic chip to send an indication. The system will search for the code sent by the key to start the vehicle. If the correct signal isn't received, the system will cut off the signal and stop the engine from starting. This is the basic 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 can boost your key fob signal.
Ghost immobilisers do more than stop this. The system, which sits on the CAN bus of your Mercedes, is programmed with a unique PIN code that needs to be entered to start the vehicle. This is then locked on your app, and no one will ever be able to access it unless they have the same unique pin that you have.
The system will also stop cloning, signal jamming and hacking (which thieves could employ to bypass the immobiliser in your car). If a thief gets their hands on your car keys or key fob, they won't be able start your vehicle even if it is located nearby. The only way for them to take your car away would be to physically take it away in a flatbed lorry, which is incredibly unlikely.
Valet mode is a handy feature that is included with your ghost immobiliser. When it is activated the glove box and trunk will be locked, so that anyone who steals your car won't have any personal belongings to take. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla to ensure that it is not able to be driven at speeds of more than 70mph. It also will disable absurd modes. It will also hide your home and work addresses as well as restrict your driver profiles and lock your Tesla dashboard so that nobody else has access to access your private information.
If you would like to use your car as valet parking, or for service, choose the 'Valet/Service mode' in the dashboard app. Enter your 4-digit valet code on the touchscreen. Once you have done this the alarm functions will be disabled however, it will hinder the ability to start your vehicle without a valid pin entered. This is ideal for people who need to transfer their vehicle to other people like taxi drivers or garage mechanics.

It protects your car from key cloning, hacking, and even key theft. This is accomplished by working alongside your vehicles current interface. It does not use remotes or fobs in addition to it but is integrated into the vehicle's CAN data network. This makes it a "stealth device.

Once activated it will prevent your vehicle from starting until a specific PIN is entered. This is the code you will receive when you book an install. This number is required to activate valet, turn off the alarm, or let you drive away in a friend's car (if they also have Ghost installed).

It can be placed in a variety of locations, making it almost impossible to spot. It's also low-maintenance and can be utilized in combination with other anti-theft systems, such as trackers (Brand dependent) for a complete solution.
Many people install an immobiliser ghost because they believe that the standard security measures aren't enough to safeguard their pride and joy. Physical deterrents such as wheel clamps and steering wheel locks are great options, but they are not considered "theft-proof" by thieves because they are easily beaten with the right tools. A ghost immobiliser is not accessible to thieves since it is built into the vehicle and, if activated would stop the starter motor or fuel system.
