What is a Ghost Immobiliser?
If you're fortunate enough to own a Range Rover, it's only natural to want to secure it from theft. As more vehicles become keyless and hackable, thieves are able to take your joy and pride in a matter of seconds. This is why ghost immobilisers are crucial.
A ghost immobiliser stops your vehicle from starting without entering a unique pin code. The code is entered via buttons within the vehicle such as those on the steering wheel, centre console or door panels. only you will be able to identify the pin code. The device works by detecting vibrations, contact with your vehicle, damage, or if someone is trying to break into your car.
The device is connected to the vehicle's CAN data network and will only allow the engine to start if the correct pin code is entered. This means that a thief cannot simply add another key or alter the ECU as it will not recognize these changes. It is also designed so that it cannot be detected by diagnostic tools, and it cannot be hacked using radio signals.
It is important that you install your Range Rover Ghost as soon as you can. The device will not just stop hacking, but it will also defend your car from key hacking, signal jamming and vehicle spoofing.
Ghost is a next generation immobiliser that does not need to cut wires or install aftermarket key fobs. The unique device is connected to the CAN system and utilizes factory buttons in your vehicle to create a personalised PIN code sequence that must be entered before the vehicle is able to be driven. This is the ultimate protection for your Range Rover from hacking and other methods of modern-day vehicle theft.
Once you've got your Range Rover Ghost installed it is very easy to use. The system can be controlled and de-armed with our specialized iOS and Android application or using the ghost 2 Bluetooth tag (sold separately). You can also turn on valet mode, which allows you to control your vehicle in accordance with set parameters without the need for a PIN code. This is ideal for handing the vehicle over to a valet.
Protection from Key Cloning and Key Theft
The Ghost is a next-generation immobiliser that is designed to shield your Range Rover from modern car thieves. As opposed to other immobilisers which require an additional key fob in order to operate, the Ghost is hidden in the wiring of your vehicle so that it isn't detected by thieves without removing the vehicle. This makes it the ideal solution for avoiding modern methods of theft such as key cloning and theft.
The device is connected to the CAN network within your car and allows you to create an unique PIN code by pushing the buttons on your dash and steering wheel. When you enter this PIN code and press the button, the Ghost will prevent your Range Rover from starting unless it receives the correct sequence of PIN. This means a thief will need to work for hours to find the correct combination of buttons to steal your vehicle.
The device can be placed anywhere on your vehicle because it uses the CAN network. The unit does not emit any signals, which means thieves can't employ sophisticated RF scanning or code-grabbing technology to identify it. A thief cannot detect the sound of a traditional relay because it communicates directly with the ECU via the data bus.
Lastly, the Ghost isn't equipped with key-fobs or LED indicators to give away its presence and it's also sealed so it's not able to be taken away or damaged. It's also small enough to be tucked in the vehicle's harness to ensure it isn't located by a would-be criminal who may attempt to disable it by cutting wires or cutting off the harness.
The Ghost is an established and tried-and-tested solution for protecting your Range Rover against key-cloning, key theft and hacking. The Ghost is not a substitute for other defence methods for example, parking the Range Rover in a driveway or garage if possible. This makes it more difficult for thieves to steal it.

Service Mode
The Range Rover is a popular target, despite being one of the most technologically advanced vehicles on the market. Installing a ghost-immobiliser could help deter thieves from your vehicle, and also ensure that it is safe at all time. The system is discrete and unnoticeable to thieves, as it emits no signal. This is different from other systems that use LED indicators or key-fobs. It uses buttons on the steering wheel, dashboard and doors to generate a unique code that must be entered to allow the vehicle to begin. Here's how it works:
Made by Autowatch and installed by Eurotec Motors, the ghost immobiliser system stops your vehicle from starting until an exact sequence of buttons is pressed. This unique sequence is able to be changed at any time. This means that if your vehicle is stolen, the person who stole it cannot start it as they do not know the code. The system can also be linked to external trackers and alarms (Brand dependent). This will add an extra layer of security to your vehicle, as the immobiliser will take precedence over signals from these devices.
Once installed, you are able to arm or disarm your Ghost using the accompanying app for your smartphone or Bluetooth tag (Sold separately). You can arm your vehicle using these tags without needing to remember your PIN. You can also put the device in transport mode for when you drop off your car at garages. This will disable all automatic alarms to prevent theft for 10 hours - keeping your vehicle secure when it's being transported.
