Does the Ghost immobiliser stop keyless and relay theft?
Yes. The Ghost is designed to defeat the digital methods now common across Bristol, including relay attacks, key cloning and OBD port attacks. It requires a unique sequence of button presses before the engine will start, so the car cannot be driven away even if thieves bypass the alarm or clone a key.
How does the Ghost immobiliser work?
The Ghost uses a secret PIN code entered through a sequence of presses on your existing buttons, such as the steering wheel or door controls. This disables an internal CAN bus interface, so the engine will not start without the correct code. There are no fobs or signals for thieves to intercept or find.
Will fitting the Ghost affect my car or its warranty?
No. All work is non-invasive and fully reversible. Our engineers integrate the system into secure points in your vehicle’s wiring without interfering with manufacturer settings, then position the unit discreetly for maximum security. Everything is tested and verified before your handover.
Is the Autowatch Ghost immobiliser insurance approved?
Ghost Installations is a TASSA approved installer, and many insurers recognise the Ghost as an effective security upgrade, rewarding owners with reduced premiums on some policies. This makes it a popular choice for performance cars, hybrids and high-value vans across the South West. Always confirm the details with your own insurer.
How long does Ghost immobiliser installation take?
A standard fitting takes around two hours, though this varies by vehicle and access. Our engineers begin with a brief handover to confirm your make, model and factory equipment, then fit and test the system on site. Many customers have it done at home or work with no disruption to their day.
Will the Ghost fit my car, and can thieves detect it?
The Ghost is compatible with most makes and models and is completely concealed within your vehicle’s wiring. With no fobs, LED indicators or visible components, it is virtually impossible for thieves to find or disable, which is why it is one of the strongest defences against organised vehicle crime.
