How the Autowatch Ghost-II Immobiliser Works

In today’s world, vehicle theft has become increasingly sophisticated, with criminals employing advanced techniques to bypass the latest and more traditional security systems.

As a result, car owners are seeking more effective solutions to protect their vehicles and we’re proud to be able to help them that search.

One such innovative device is the latest addition to our store; the Autowatch Ghost-II Immobiliser.

In this blog, we’ll explore the technology behind this cutting-edge car immobiliser in simple terms and discuss why it’s a worthwhile investment for vehicle owners like you.

Understanding the Autowatch Ghost-II Immobiliser

For those of you who are yet to check it out, the Autowatch Ghost-II Immobiliser is an advanced anti-theft device designed to prevent unauthorised access to your vehicle.

Unlike traditional immobilisers that rely on visible deterrents or key-based systems, the Ghost-II operates more discreetly, making it difficult for thieves to detect or bypass.

What Are The Key Features of the Ghost-II Immobiliser?

We’re glad you asked. Let’s start with:

1. Undetectable Installation: The Ghost-II is installed within your vehicle’s electronic system without any visible indicators, there are no LED lights or key fobs. This stealthy installation ensures that potential thieves are unaware of its presence.
   
2. Engine Start Blocking: The device prevents the engine from starting unless a specific, user-defined sequence of actions is performed. This sequence, known only to the vehicle owner, acts as a secure PIN code.
   
3. No Radio Frequency Signals: Unlike some security systems that use radio frequency (RF) signals, the Ghost-II does not emit any signals that could be intercepted or detected by thieves using scanning devices.
   
4. Compatibility: The Ghost-II is compatible with a wide range of vehicles, including cars, vans and motorhomes, regardless of make or model. Something that was important to us given our customer base.

How Does the Ghost-II Immobiliser Work?

To understand how the Ghost-II Immobiliser protects your vehicle, let’s break down its operation into simple steps:

1. Installation: When you buy it through Infiniti, soon after purchase one of our professional installer will come to your home (or workplace) to integrate the Ghost-II into your vehicle’s electronic control system. The device is small and discreet, allowing it to be easily concealed within the vehicle’s wiring.
   
2. PIN Code Setup: After installation, you’ll set up a unique PIN code consisting of a sequence of button presses on existing controls, such as the steering wheel buttons, dashboard buttons, or other controls. This code can typically range from 4 to 20 presses, providing a high level of security.
   
3. Vehicle Start-Up: When you enter your vehicle and attempt to start the engine, the Ghost-II requires you to input your unique PIN code using the pre-defined buttons. If the correct sequence is entered, the immobiliser allows the engine to start. If an incorrect code is entered or no code is provided, the engine remains immobilised.
   
4. Service Mode: If you need to take your vehicle for servicing or repairs where technicians may need to be starting the day regularly, then don’t worry. The Ghost-II can be temporarily deactivated by entering a specific sequence, allowing mechanics to work on the vehicle without needing the PIN code. Once servicing is complete, the device can be reactivated to resume normal operation.

Why Choose the Autowatch Ghost-II Immobiliser?

Investing in the Ghost-II Immobiliser offers several benefits that enhance your vehicle’s security:

The Ghost-II’s unique PIN code requirement adds an extra layer of security, making it significantly more challenging for unauthorised individuals to start your vehicle.
   
2. Discreet and Undetectable: Since the Ghost-II is installed within your vehicle’s existing electronics without any visible components, thieves are less likely to detect its presence. This stealthy design reduces the risk of tampering or removal.
   
3. No Additional Key Fobs: The Ghost-II operates using your vehicle’s existing buttons, eliminating the need for extra key fobs or devices that could be lost or stolen.
   
4. Peace of Mind: Knowing that your vehicle is equipped with a state-of-the-art security system provides peace of mind, whether you’re parked at home, at work, or in unfamiliar areas.
