Ghost Immobiliser
Ghost immobilisers work as a security device that is hidden that protects vehicles from being stolen. These systems guard your vehicle against key cloning, hacking and relay theft by preventing the vehicle from being started.

CAN Based
An immobiliser for vehicles can be installed in a car, van or motorbike. It can also be used to stop thefts of plant machinery, lawnmowers or even automobiles. This kind of security system works by preventing the engine from starting without the pin code being entered. These devices are very effective and difficult to defeat, which makes them an excellent method to keep your car safe. These devices can help reduce your insurance premiums, as most insurers will offer discounts to vehicles with these devices installed.
Ghost is an CAN immobiliser based on CAN, which means it is integrated directly into your vehicle's CAN data network. This is one of the most advanced car immobilisers, and it makes it nearly impossible for thieves to steal or disable. The system is silent and doesn't emit signals or LEDs and can only be activated by pressing buttons on your vehicle. These buttons can be found on the steering wheel, centre console, or the door panels. Each button is programmed to generate a unique pin code which must be entered before the engine is able to start. This code could be between four and twenty characters. Ghost is a fully insurance-approved immobiliser and has been given the TASSA certification for its safety and reliability.
Ghost is undetectable. It is not like other types of immobilisers which can be defeated by using keyfobs from the aftermarket or by cutting wires. It doesn't include key fobs or LED indicators. Only the installers are aware of its existence. It also does not have any key-cut detection sensors which could be altered and does not interfere with the engine's control unit. It's a secure method to safeguard your vehicle from thieves and their advanced techniques.
