Protect Your Car From Key Long and Relay Theft With a Ghost 2 Immobiliser

The innovative Ghost immobiliser will safeguard your car from key-long theft and relay theft. Your car won't start when someone doesn't know your PIN code.


Transport Mode allows you to temporarily disable the device, which is ideal for servicing and transport in vehicles.  car immobiliser ghost  is then reactivated by entering a different PIN code.

There are no Key Fobs or Led Indicators

The Ghost 2 immobiliser is a technological breakthrough in the field of automotive security, offering a robust defence against modern car theft techniques. Its undetectable installation and engine start blocking can reduce the chance of your vehicle being stolen, which could offer peace of mind, and may even save you money on insurance premiums.

It does not emit radio frequency signals, which makes it inaccessible to traditional scanners. It's also invulnerable to hacking with common methods, such as key cloning and jamming. The device uses buttons on your vehicle, for instance those found on the steering wheel and door panels, to generate an unique PIN number that can be altered. This sequence could last for up to 20 times. Only the owner of the vehicle will be capable of starting the engine when the correct sequence or a beacon or mobile application is used. This adds an additional layer of security against thieves.

You can also activate an easy service mode in cases such as valet parking or servicing, which requires you to temporarily disable your system. The mobile app makes it simple to do this, and ensures that your vehicle is secure when it is being serviced. It is simple to switch to secure mode when the task is finished to ensure your vehicle is fully protected at all times.

The Ghost 2 is far more practical than other systems that require a fob. The application can also be used as a spare key in case of emergency. This allows you to drive while your security is shut off, without needing to enter a pin code.

No Radio Frequency Signals

The Ghost 2 immobiliser is not like traditional security systems, which require an additional remote control. It can be operated with the buttons that are already on your console or steering wheel. It is also unnoticeable by thieves who use RF scanning or code grabbing technology, which means your car won't even start for the device even if they manage to steal your keys.

The device uses an unique password sequence of buttons that locks the engine. The personalised PIN code can be entered through the app or using the vehicle's existing buttons on the steering wheel and on the centre console. You can also lock the gearbox, so that your car isn't able to be driven unless you have your key or pin code. The device can be set in Transport mode to allow you to drive your vehicle without entering your PIN code. This provides additional protection for your vehicle when it is left to valet or service.

The Ghost 2 immobiliser is designed to act as a deterrent to theft that is as subtle as it can be, making it an attractive option for those who have spent a lot of money on making their vehicles more unique or have rare or expensive cars. Many people have said that this device is a great way to prevent their cars from being stolen. Some have even shared stories of attempted car thefts which were thwarted by the device. The Ghost 2 also offers a large amount of flexibility and customers have reported that it works with their regular keys to their car as well as with the vehicle's emergency button, giving them peace of mind when they're away from their vehicle.

No Radio Frequency Scanners

Secure your vehicle from hacking, key cloning, and key theft with a Ghost immobiliser. The system utilises the buttons inside your vehicle, like those on the dashboard and your steering wheel, to create a unique, programmable button sequence that only you know. Without this sequence, your vehicle will not start. The combination of a distinct disarm sequence and the absence of radio frequency signals makes it extremely difficult to penetrate or evade.

The Ghost CAN Immobiliser is a safer alternative to devices that are approved by Thatcham that rely on radio frequency scanning. It works completely silently and without external signals and does not rely on any external signals. It's a safer option, and it can be protected if installed by an approved installer of TASSA (we are one of them!) ).

It is highly recommended that a professional installer install the Ghost immobiliser. This is due to the way it works with your vehicle. This ensures that it's fully integrated with your vehicle systems, resulting in optimal performance and a substantially lower risk of malfunction.

Furthermore, professional installation usually includes warranties and support, further enhancing the value of your investment. This is a significant deterrent for would-be thieves, who are less likely to attempt any attempts at bypassing the device as a result of the security features and expert installation.

The Ghost isn't just a great deterrent to thieves, but it's also designed to be easy to use. It is able to automatically re-arm after a certain amount of time, so you don't have to remember your PIN every time you park your car. It offers a Service/Valet mode when you need to leave your car for valet parking or servicing. It can be activated and deactivated by a simple indicator sequence.

No Wire Cutting

The Ghost 2 does not require cutting of any car wires during installation, ensuring non-invasive integration with the original systems of your vehicle. It connects to your vehicle's CAN data network and is programmed with a unique PIN code that prevents anyone else from starting your engine if they do not have a personalised PIN sequence or app authorization.

It is also unnoticeable by the specialist scanners that thieves employ and is quiet because it doesn't send out radio signals like other immobilisers. It is weatherproof, sealed and small enough to hide anywhere within the vehicle.

Another added benefit of the Ghost II is that it can be turned into 'transport mode' for short periods without the need for an individual PIN sequence. This is great for situations like loaning the car to a friend or family member or in emergencies that allow you to start your car and drive away quickly and safely.

It is essential to work in a well-lit space when installing the Ghost II. You should also wear safety gear while working with electrical components and tools. A basic set will allow you to make precise connections. A multimeter will allow you to check electrical values and ensure that your wiring is safe. Insulation tape and cable ties can also be used to protect or rejoin any exposed or cut wires during the installation process.

It's also important to disconnect the battery prior to attempting any wiring work on your vehicle. This will stop any airbag deployments as well as electrical shocks in the event that the Ghost II is connected to the vehicle's system when the battery is disconnected.

Easy to Install

The Ghost immobiliser is an exclusive next-generation device that operates by connecting directly to the vehicles CAN Data Network and using a unique PIN Code to stop your vehicle from getting started. This makes it much harder to crack than conventional key fobs and alarm systems, and provides superior security against key cloning hacking, as well as relay attacks.

The device can be hidden inside your vehicle, and it uses the buttons that are already present on your dashboard and steering wheel to create a sequence that only you know. This blocks thieves from being able to make use of a duplicate key to start the vehicle and additionally, it prevents them from using the diagnostic tool that thrives on hacking into the OBD.

Installation is easy and does not require cutting wires. The unit is connected to the vehicle's CAN bus through an unchanging 12V supply and a grounding connection. Hand tools are all you need for installation, and a multimeter can assist with pinpointing the correct wires. Insulation tape or heat shrink tubing is recommended to shield the connections and cable ties can be utilized to keep the wiring neat and tidy.

Once installed, the unit is put into a learning mode that records your specific sequence of buttons or sequences to create your unique pin code. This information is later stored in the CAN data network, making it nearly impossible for anyone else to duplicate your sequence and start your car.

If you ever forget your PIN Code or sell your car a button become inoperative there is an emergency override feature called Transport Mode. This will turn off the Ghost System completely, however it will reactivate itself automatically when you go over 31mph for more than 15 minutes or enter your PIN Code. This is perfect for those who rent their cars regularly through services such as Turo or ZipCar.
