Protects your vehicle from key cloning and stops thieves from driving it with the keys you originally had. Our most recent immobiliser connects to your vehicle's CAN data network & the unique PIN code needs to be entered for the engine to start.
In contrast to trackers, Ghost does not transmit radio frequency signals and can't be detected by diagnostic tools. There are also no LED indicators or buttons that can give away its presence within your car or van.
Anti-key cloning
The ghost installations immobiliser was developed to prevent key cloning. This device connects to the CAN data network of your vehicle and generates an unique pin code push sequence by using the factory buttons on your dashboard and the steering wheel. This stops the criminal from being capable of starting your car. If the incorrect PIN code is entered, your engine isn't able to start, making it impossible for them to leave with your joy and pride.

OBD port hacking
OBD port hacking has become the most recent method employed by professional car thieves. Thieves have access to your vehicle's OBD by using an laptop, mobile application, and cables that can be bought on the internet for less than PS50. Once they have access, they are able to do anything they want, from resetting your vehicle's fault codes to tuning your vehicle, or stealing it in under a minute.
It can prevent your car from being taken away by requiring a unique PIN sequence to be entered along with your key fob prior to you can start the engine or drive away. It communicates with the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit), using the CAN Data Circuit. This is completely undetectable by any RF scanning technology or code grabbing. It even comes with a Service/Valet option that allows your vehicle to be started without the need for a PIN code.
You will also need a cable with OBD pins, which are connected to the CAN bus. These cables are available on eBay or Amazon for around PS50. You'll also require an OBD cable that has OBD pins that are connected to the CAN bus. These are available on eBay and Amazon for around PS50. The next step is to connect the cable into the wire harness of your vehicle, for example, in the radio wiring harness.
Once the hacker has established a connection to your vehicles OBD port, they will send diagnostics requests to the system at a high baud rate which can cause CAN to crash and stop systems inside your vehicle from functioning. This could cause the engine to stop and doors to lock, or even the brakes to be engaged.No need for additional remotes or key fobs

They will then be able to start your vehicle.
With the TASSA approved Ghost 2 immobiliser, there are no remotes or keys to be purchased. The immobiliser connects directly to the vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit).

Simple PIN code change process
Ghost is a next generation device that protects your vehicle without cutting wires or adding aftermarket key fobs. It connects directly to the vehicles CAN data network and a unique PIN code is programmed into it via buttons on your steering wheel & dash. The system stops engine start and can't be re-enabled since no RF signals are generated from the device. This makes it inaccessible to sophisticated scans using RF or code-grabbing technology that modern thieves employ.
The PIN code is able to be changed to lock out previous drivers or even include an override number if you forget the sequence. During installation, the installer will demonstrate how to do this. The system has a valet-mode feature that allows you to temporarily disable pin input sequences, so that your mechanic or garage can service the vehicle without knowing the pin number. This is a great choice for those who don't want their pin number to be revealed but still would like to leave their vehicle with valet parking or service.
Ghost is a discrete system that uses the buttons on your vehicle to create a unique and interchangeable PIN sequence. The sequence is entered using the smartphone application. There are no additional LED indicators are thrown out, and your car is protected without chance of being disabled.
Tested for every vehicle
Ghost immobilisers, unlike key fobs that require pressing buttons, is discretely installed under the dash or on the steering wheel. Only you will know it's there. The device is connected to the CAN network of your vehicle, and a PIN code can be programmed by using the buttons on your vehicle.
