Why You Need a Ghost 2 Immobiliser Fitting Near Me

Modern day thieves can rob vehicles in less than a minute. They use the cars OBD port to hack the ECU & then duplicate a new key, all via a hidden laptop in the car.

This device protects your vehicle from these kinds of attacks by blocking the engine after a proper pin code is entered. This is a reliable way to protect your car.

It also does not send out any IR (infrared) signals, like the typical remote key fobs for control or tracker do, making it very hard to bypass or hack.

Another advantage of the ghost is that it has the valet mode which can be activated when you hand your vehicle over to valet parking or for servicing.

Valet mode

Standard immobilisers that are fitted to your vehicle employ an electronic chip to send a signal. The system will look for the code that was sent by the key to start the car.
