It also is resistant to jamming devices which are a typical technique used by thieves to bypass immobilisers.

The advantage of CAN data over conventional systems is that they work silently. It can't be detected by sophisticated RF scanning or code-grabbing technology and is likewise unreadable by traditional diagnostic tools. The Autowatch ghost doesn't produce LED indicators and instead uses the buttons in your vehicle such as steering wheel, centre console or door panels to create a unique, customizable disarm sequence. You can create a sequence that is as long as 20 presses to increase security.

It does this without extra hardware, such as key fobs. It can take up to 20 presses. It is also unrecognizable by diagnostic equipment and does transmit radio frequency signals, so thieves cannot use sophisticated RF scanners or code-grabbing technologies to detect that a system has been installed.

Ghost is harder to remove than car alarms that require disarming using a series of buttons. This makes it an excellent alternative to a GPS tracking device, which can be used to track your vehicle after it's been taken.

Override of emergency PIN code

You don't have to look far on social media to find stories or videos of cars that have been stolen with the latest technology tools. Key-cloning devices, for instance, and hacking tools that allow them to start the vehicle with your original keys.

It is also possible to connect a separate analog immobiliser, alarm or tracker to these systems, but this has to be specified prior to installing the device. They are also fully service/valet mode-compatible and are a great alternative to a tracker you have your car checked for repairs to an electrical issue at the dealer.
