No hacking, cloning, or cloning

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser is one of the most advanced models on the market. It protects your vehicle from hacking and key cloning, making it nearly impossible to take. The only way a thief could steal your car is to physically tow it away & even then they won't be capable of starting the engine.

This is because unlike other immobilisers that only stop your vehicle from starting if you do not have a fob, the innovative system actually shuts off the engine control unit to stop the vehicle from starting. It operates by sending a signal to buttons on your steering wheel and door panel, as well as your centre console which can only be disabled by entering the proper pin code configuration This feature that makes the Ghost so hard to crack.

Its sleek and discreet design allows it to fit seamlessly into your car without the requirement for additional keys or LED indicators. It operates independently of your factory alarm or tracker. It is a CAN-bus immobiliser, meaning that it sits in your vehicle's control network and doesn't interfere with existing devices like your vehicle's key fob or alarm.

Contrary to other systems that rely on RF scanning or code grabbing the Ghost's unique technology is indestructible to thieves because it only transmits a silent sequence of pin codes through the buttons that are already present on your vehicle's steering wheel doors, door panels, or the central console.

The number of vehicles with keyless entry in circulation is increasing. Thieves are getting more sophisticated and employ devices to clone your vehicle that can be purchased through classifieds or online for less than PS15.

It's not enough security, and it's easy for criminals jam or spoof signals to unlock your vehicle.

Valet mode

A standard immobiliser fitted to your vehicle uses an electronic chip that transmits the signal when you hit your key fob button. The system then searches for the specific code that was that was sent from the key to start the vehicle. If the correct signal cannot be detected, the system will cut off the power and prevent the vehicle from beginning. This is the fundamental principle behind all aftermarket immobilisers and is a vital security measure to ensure that your car cannot be stolen, even if a thief has your keys or a device to increase the signal from your key fob.

A ghost immobiliser does more than stop this. The system, which is on the CAN bus of your Mercedes is programmed with a unique pin code that has to be entered in order to start the vehicle. It is then secured 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 use to get around the immobiliser on your vehicle). This means that if a thief does somehow get hold of your car keys or your key fob, they won't be able to start your car, even if they are in the vicinity of only a few feet of it. The only way they could take your car away is to physically transport it away on an oversized lorry that has a flatbed which is extremely unlikely.
